EXCELLENT FIT AND FINISH, BRILLIANT ENGINE AND A VERY REFINED CABIN - CERTAINLY THE BEST LUXURY SALOON IN INDIA!
EVERY TIME WE DRIVE THE ACCORD, WE CAN'T help marveling at the sheer all-around capability of the car. It looks good, is spacious and comfortable, rides and handles well, and there's a choice of two absolutely sparkling engines - a 2.4-litre inline-four, and a 3.0-litre V6. Not only that, compared with other D-segment cars in India, the Accord is very reasonably priced, which makes it even better value for money. Whichever way you look at it, the Accord is an outstanding car, which is why it's been such a huge sales success for Honda worldwide.
While the Accord's sporty, rakish good looks appeal to a wide range of people, it's plush and comfortable interiors follow suit. The ergonomics in this car are spot-on, and long journeys are a pleasure, rather than a chore, in the Accord. The Accord 2.4 is fi tted with a 2354cc inline-four that features variable valve timing, and makes 144PS and 196Nm of torque. This car sprints from zero to 100km/h in 9.5 seconds and is capable of a 208km/h top speed. Not enough for you? Take the 2997cc V6 then, which packs 224PS and 276Nm of torque. The V6 goes from zero to 100km/h in 9.3 seconds and hits a top speed of 215km/h. Both cars are also very fuel effi cient, with 12.3kmpl for the Accord 2.4 and 8.4kmpl for the V6. And with front airbags and anti-lock brakes, the safety factor is high. Very reasonable purchase price, great drivability, well-appointed cabin, comfortable ride, and exemplary refi nement, reliability and fuel economy - the Accord does it all, and does it in style. And all things considered, it's the best luxury saloon sold in India.
