The things I like about the new Accord are the generous back seat space which can compare to the Avalon and the infotainment system compare to the new Camry. Other than that, I'd take the Camry overall satisfaction for a family sedan.

You buy this, you can't complain about my Acura beak anymore.

Beautiful car..it looks premium now..considering the nisaan maxima..toyota camry...and others. Dialed into thier luxury big brothers..for styling and technology...this dramatic styling change is what honda needed..a fresh start..

[zooks]

Stunning car. Very stylish. Honda has done it again.

[jasonfreel]

Looks nice! Other than the grill the rest of the exterior styling reminds me of Chevrolet’s latest Impala.

[kjscoleman]

Looks more upscale with a good balance of beauty and elegance with its practicality. I'd rather have something like this, rent/borrow a truck/suv when I need it. As always, looking forward to a your thorough take!

I thought it was a Dodge charger for a second

I'm super excited to see the manual 2.0T sport. It gotta be awesome

[clairekennedy]

Dramatic, it's not dead it sold over 300, 000 units last year in USA.

The front grill is ugly so as the swooping roofline which doesn't go well with the rear end. The interior is nice though.

[TJC]

I like the interior. Not the exterior.

[kasioB]

Don't you think Car and Driver would still recommend this new model as their top 10 picks? I mean that 31 in a road streak gotta be stop right here...

[devera]

Acura got rid of the sheild, so now Honda took it. I do like the clean look. Don't like the gimiky drive select buttons.

[tjsullivan]

Just wondering is this new Accord on a brand new platform or chasis? I know Toyota is using their TNGA which is brand new for the Camry as will Subaru be using their new global platform with the next Legacy. I know a car can be called "redesigned from the ground up" and still be riding on an old set of "bones" or chasis from the previous generation. Toyotas new TNGA is really composed and solid after having test driven the 18 Camry as is the new Impreza on its new platform. Thanks for your time.

Looks like someone punched it in the mouth and knocked its bottom teeth out

another (honda) first look..arrrghh...the accord 2.0t sport w/manual reminds of the Legacy GT sedan/wagon from '04-'06 sans the wagon bit of course (great cars btw) - 4cyl turbo hp in a mid-size car around the 250hp-ish mark...definitely a spot in my "top 5" of next cars to test drive when seeking a replacement vehicle...I'd love to see an accord wagon...will we ever see another accord wagon stateside (?) or are those reserved for other markets...wagons don't have to be boring, leave that up to the CR/HR-Vs, Pilots and Odysseys

[InvestBetter.]

It's uglier and weaker than the new King Camry
It better have a bunch of tricks up its sleeve.
It's playing with 2 strikes against

[julius]

front not a honda tradition yeah its ugly head
