2014 honda accord review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Hybrid versions join newly redesigned lineup. introductionthe honda accord is among the best of a crop of superb midsize cars. It's a smooth, enjoyable engine and, on accord sedans, gets an epa-estimated 27/36 mpg city/highway with the cvt continuously variable transmission or 24/34 mpg with the 6-speed manual gearbox. The accord sport sedan and accord coupe models get about a mile per gallon less in fuel economy. a 3. 5-liter v6 engine is available that delivers 278 horsepower and an epa-rated 21/34 mpg city/highway with the 6-speed automatic transmission; v6-powered accord coupes rate 21/32 mpg with the automatic. Both recharge themselves when driving with the gas-powered engine. the accord hybrid seamlessly blends electric-only drive, gas-engine drive, and a combination of the two. The result is excellent fuel economy and smooth cruising. Accord hybrid is epa-rated at 50/45 mpg city/highway; we got better than 50 mpg while driving normally. The combined gas-electric range is 570 miles. Under normal driving, the accord plug-in hybrid is epa-rated at 47/46 mpg city/highway. Using electric power, it's rated by the federal government at 115 mpge, whatever that means. There are tax credits and rebates available from the federal government and some state governments, california among them. Sedans have more backseat room than do the coupes. It isn't about being the fastest in a straight line or flattest around the corners but rather being well-rounded and doing everything better than average. Overall, it feels smooth and refined. the accord sedan and coupe look good, their styling neither as dramatic as some nor as bland as others. the midsize segment is a large one with many viable competitors. Among them: toyota camry, ford fusion, chevrolet malibu, nissan altima, mazda6, hyundai sonata, kia optima, volkswagen passat. Drivers who want more space, performance or features might also look to a nissan maxima or toyota avalon. Hyundai genesis coupe is an option. A 6-speed manual gearbox is standard on accord lx and ex; a cvt continuously variable transmission 800) is available for lx, sport, and ex models and comes standard on ex-l. A 278-hp 3. 5-liter v6 is available only with higher trim levels and comes with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Accord coupe lx-s, ex, and ex-l use the 2. 4-liter with 6-speed manual or cvt. Accord sport sedan also upgrades to 18-inch alloy wheels, dual exhaust outlets (boosting power to 189 hp), fog lights, rear spoiler, leather-wrapped steering wheel, 10-way power driver seat and shift paddles for the cvt. accord ex sedan 24,880) upgrades with moonroof, lanewatch, power driver seat, keyless entry/pushbutton start, heated side mirrors with signal repeaters and 17-inch alloy wheels. Accord ex sedan is available with the 6-speed manual or the cvt 25,680). Accord ex coupe is equipped similarly but adds touch-screen audio and fog lights to lx-s coupe. Navigation is available and offered as a separate model 30,045). Accord ex-l coupe 28,345) adds lanewatch plus most ex-l sedan upgrades and comes with the cvt; navigation is available 30,120) accord ex-l v-6 sedan 30,345) uses the 278-hp v6 engine and 6-speed automatic and adds led daytime running lights, power passenger seat, homelink, and dual exhaust. Navigation is available 32,120). Lanewatch, forward collision warning and lane departure warning are optional. walkaroundthe honda accord sedans and coupes look fresh, having been completely redesigned for the 2013 model year. This ninth-generation accord blends curves, creases and angles, now in a more cohesive shape; it's incrementally lower, wider and three inches shorter than pre-2013 models. Where the window line on many cars extends from the top of the hood to the top of the trunk, the accord's runs more from the headlight cut-line to the top of the tail lights. This yields not only a credible sedan profile but also adds to the airy cabin spaciousness and proper rear-seat headroom. From overhead the center section is mildly barrel-shaped, the widest point where front and rear doors meet appearing pointed relative the smooth lines of the roof above it. there's a mild forward tilt to the profile, enhanced by the scalloped front door panels and raked headlight housings. Viewed from behind, the front wheel opening is inset above the sill and shows some tire, an image we associate more with sports cars than family sedans. rear doors on accord sedans look like long-wheelbase versions of some sedans, with an almost flat section at the top and opening that runs straight from the door sill to the window kink popularized by bmw and hofmeister half a century ago. the coupe is nicely proportioned and, like the sedan, uses a higher than average roofline over the back seat for better-than-normal rear-seat room. Unlike the sedan the tail lights do not extend into the trunk lid, and the chrome lower molding is much wider. Also unlike the sedan, the rear reflectors on the coupe are vertically oriented and t.
