2018 Honda Accord 2.0T Review - America's best sedan?

In the epic battle between Toyota and Honda the stakes couldn't be higher (and the final score couldn't be closer) than in the Camry vs Accord fight. For 2018 both companies completely redesigned their mid-sized sedans with a keen eye on the shifting realities of the modern sedan shopper. With this generation of Accord, Honda decided to sharpen their claws with a 2.0L turbo borrowed from their hot-hatch Civic Type R, an all-new 10-speed automatic transmission, more LEDs than Times Square and some adaptive suspension technology borrowed from luxury brands. The result is quite simply the best Accord ever produced. Period. But does that mean it beats the all-new Camry? Yes and no.

Alex is truly a brilliant auto journalist. You won't find anyone else analyzing in detail the Accord & Camry like others comparing the Camaro & Mustang. And the child-seat is back!

Love my Sport 2.0T. No regrets, very fun to drive, and the best-looking Accord yet!

This review convinced me to get this car. Traded in my 2009 Civic to get the Accord Touring model. You do great work, sir. Keep it up!

The details in this review are freakin unreal. I also appreciate how you don't bash CVT, just give me the info and I'll decide for myself. Great job.

I just purchased a 2020 2.0t sport and it is amazing. that ten speed is no joke. Oh, and nobody sits like you in a back seat.

Finally a good unbiased review of both cars. Most other reviewers were saying The Accord wins by a landslide. You broke down the facts and that's why you're one of the top reviewers.

I just recently purchased a 2.0 sport turbo love it handles really good drives great

As always, very nice, very informative and unbiased review. For me, it comes down to which car offers a manual transmission ... and that is the Accord. I wish more manufacturers would continue building cars with manual transmissions.

This new Accord looks so awesome! I love the mid size sedan section I hope it never leaves!

I just got last week the 2018 accord sport 2.0t in platinum white pearl, after driving my 6th honda, this one is by far the best one ever, super quiet on the road, smooth and powerful, a full pack of standard safety support features, I get bunch of compliments every day, I love this car, great job Honda.

This was the best and most thorough review I have ever seen on a car. You do the best review I have ever seen out of anyone. Great job.

Your reviews are amazing. You approach every car in a level headed and realistic manner. I watched this one because I want an accord and I have been tempted by the Camry. My wife wants a crv or Subaru, I think awd is overrated. I owned a pilot and a 4Runner with it and think it’s not as good as safe driving. I think your comments on cars are accurate. I am a little surprised at everyone (not just you) complaining about accord seat comfort. I really like that I can push the seat down and back and almost be semi reclined.

Seriously great work. I’ve prolly watched 50 videos you’ve done. Now get back in the trunk!

[happysamoan]

Absolutely love the new accord, hopefully they'll still be making them when I graduate.

THANK YOU! I've been waiting for YOUR review on this exact Accord!

Alex On Autos is a godsend... thank you, Alex, for your concise, coherent, and SERIOUS reports. Too much hip talk too many "amazings, "awesomes" and "OMG's" on most online reviews. None here though, and that is why I love this channel. Thank you again, Alex... you are the best in the business.
