Honda Accord-the name says it all. The model name 'Accord' was chosen as the name for a new vehicle introduced in 1976 and represented the manufacturers promise to deliver a vehicle to the public that would achieve 'accord' between society, people and automobiles through advanced technology. For over 30 years, that has been the goal of this well built, well equipped and family friendly vehicle, and they have more than delivered on their promise.

The Accord Sedan was introduced in 1979. This first generation of an immediately and immensely popular fuel efficient sedan lasted until 1981. Rather than ride on the heels of their popularity and rest on their laurels, Honda revised their sedan every few years to include the newest technologies and mechanical upgrades for the 1982, 1986, 1990, 1994, 1998 and 2003 model years.

Some of the more significant upgrades took place in the 1994 model year. This particular generation debuted with a new grille, longer nose, larger wheelbase and roomier interior. This sedan was also the first of its class of vehicles to receive a more powerful V6 engine that produced 170 horsepower. The next eye opening changes occurred for the 2003 model year, when once again the Accord Sedan debuted with a new shapely body style, new upscale interior and a brand new 3.0 liter VTEC V6 engine that delivered 240 horsepower. Safety and the environment became the focus in 2005, with all models receiving front passenger and front side airbags and the introduction of a Hybrid version of the Accord Sedan.

For the 2006 model year, the most popular sedan in America received a facelift, including new front and rear fascias, new alloy wheels, and an increase to 244 horsepower for the 3.0 liter engine. As of the 2007 model year, the Accord Sedan has earned much respect for being an affordable, comfortable and intelligently engineered sedan that is easy to feel comfortable in whether you are behind the wheel or in the passenger seats. With a solidly build reputation of reliability and safety and a high resale value, it is still hard to beat the Honda Accord Sedan in overall value.
