This snappy, surprisingly expensive sedan certainly ticks some boxes, but you can't quite shake the feeling something is missing.
Think hybrid, think Toyota – right? Well, maybe not. Honda has hybrid history, and with its new Accord hybrid it takes a shot at the undersupplied petrol-electric sedan market.
Honda concedes it won't sell many 10th generation Accord sedans, but that doesn't mean this updated icon of the road is without merit...
The Honda Accord has received a facelift and the offering has now become even more impressive. Paul Maric jumps behind the wheel.
Today it’s the Civic, HR-V and CR-V that drive the majority of Honda’s sales here, making the new 2020 Honda Accord more of a halo car. But it's a pretty decent one. We'd appreciate the US market's 2.0-litre turbo and 10-speed auto drivetrain, a better opening price, and a plusher ride, but the great fuel economy, mostly comfortable cabin, excellent driver-assistance tech, and head-turning lines mean there are still reasons to consider this oft-overlooked offering...
If this were the United States, a comparison of the Honda Accord against the Toyota Camry would be a Battle Royale of top-sellers. Things are different here, though. The Camry absolutely dominates the remnants of a mainstream mid-sized car segment that has halved in overall market share over the past decade...
Hybrid cars are not exactly a big ticket item in Australia, especially when you compare our market to somewhere such as Japan or the US. Nevertheless, there are options from Toyota, Honda and Lexus for those with green-tinged glasses. Out of the 260,000-odd passenger cars registered to fleets and private buyers alike over the first half of 2015, fewer than 5000 were petrol-electric hybrids...
Toyota launches an all-new Camry, Mazda launches an all-new 6. The two top selling medium sized cars battle two of the best...
Honda Australia has issued a recall on a total of 22,366 cars – across eight model types – citing a faulty component within the fuel pump assembly. The affected models are the Accord (MY2018), City (MY2019), Civic (MY2018), CR-V (MY2018-2019), HR-V (MY2018), Jazz (MY2019), Civic Type R (MY2018), and the NSX (MY2019)...

In car news, Nissan Patrol Warrior is looking good for Australia, Volkswagen is seeking ‘aggressive’ climate activist to bypass internal bureaucracy, 2020 Ford Escape pricing and specs, and a study reveals ride-share services like Uber produce more carbon emissions than private cars...

The new Honda Accord has finally arrived in Australia, with hybrid power and price tag that throws it into battle with the Kia Stinger and Skoda Superb. Only one trim level will be available, with pricing to start at $47,990 before on-road costs for the Accord VTi-LX with a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine making 140kW and 260Nm...
Even for a car that’s now 12 years old, Honda’s knack for style, flair and overall quality is clear. I bought our Milano (pink, and more on this later) red Accord Euro Luxury Navi for a song, as a wholesale customer trade in. And you’ll be hard pressed to find more car for the money. This is my wife’s car, and by 2008 standards it is loaded with fruit...
Today I will be reviewing my ever-practical 2003 Accord R, by Honda. Making a statement amongst other large four-door cars by being fitted from factory with a high revving, 2-litre red top K-series engine, 6-speed transmission, Recaro bucket seats and handling to match. This is the second Honda in the family now, for which the Accord is backed up by my track-prepped Civic Type R...
I wrote a review on my first car, a 2011 Mazda 3 Neo (review was posted as a 2010, my bad) last year, and spoke to its positives. I got a good deal on it, and after a year and a half of ownership and 20,000km put on it, I managed to sell it for more than I paid...
The third time my beloved WL Caprice was on the back of a tow truck, this time due to a busted coolant hose, I decided enough was enough. I ended up selling it to the RACV repair man who came to tell me what was wrong with it, and thus began my search for a new car. This was very difficult because I would miss the sheer amount of space and comfort, the lazy torque from its engine and whisper quiet travel it guaranteed on road trips...
