Honda Accord Review | Great Car, Poor Sales. What's Going on?

The new Honda is going through a sales slump and is losing ground to the Camry.

I have 3 Honda dealerships within 10 miles of my house. They all have over 135 Accords in stock. It's not a production issue....

Honda can do way better with the looks!!

[original__gmebvy]

The car looks like those generic NPC cars driving around the map in a Need for Speed game

[ArteagaK]

No V6, no 2.0T, no non-hybrid EX-L trim, and ugly as hell. What a shock

[lilo]

95% is the looks. Whoever design this need to be replaced real quick 😂

That's what happens when you make a huge sedan with Zero style. It looks like during the exterior design phase they made a base shape of what a sedan is (four doors, four wheels) and called it a day. No styling whatsoever.

Compared to others in this class: No AWD, No 360 Camera, No Projector headlights, No Ambient lighting. Priced much higher than competitors that offer all of the above

It is the looks that are putting people off. Everything on this car are just straight lines. Headlights, taillights, grille outlines, grille details, bumpers, hood creases, and body creases are all just straight lines, and this is exacerbated on a large car like this. The front and rear overhang seems too long also. I have no doubt it is a great driving, reliable, and comfortable car (I used to own a 2013 Sport). The car doesnt just look generic, it doesn't look right. Cars are an emotional purchase, and looks is a big factor, especially when people are spending over $30k on a car.

It’s ugly. It’s so ugly it helps sell the other models.

The last generation looked more sporty

[stillwaters]

The 10th generation looked better and they also made the mistake of getting rid of the 2.0 turbo.

This car just makes the civic a better deal. It looks lame imo and the interior is just the civics

[Ryeric]

It’s funny how they went from the previous generation to this.

I must be weird; I've always thought the new Accord looks great: classy, timeless, and handsome. But I've heard almost entirely negative comments on it looks online.

[armandomendoza]

They need to add standard rear ac vents and charging ports on all trims

[frankpoperowitzmusic]

Was talking to my wife about trading in her Insite for an Accord. Then I saw the new design and was like ohhhh. Now she wants a Hyundai. Good lord!

[chikeokafor]

Keep on reducing power on the Accord and see who will buy: no v6, no 2.0t

[Robert-D]

Crazy prices and everybody buying SUVs…. They not have awd and no spare tire things that the Camry offer.

I find it interesting that the '25's are not out yet. Makes me wonder if an emergency refresh is in the works...

Just a couple of real life anecdotes:
1) My neighbor had a 2.0T 10AT, but didn't like the gas mileage and replaced it with a CR-V Hybrid. He now complains about lack of power, but well, we can't have everything.
2) I don't like large cars, so I own a Fit and a Civic, both manual transmission.
