Sharp and stylish A wide body and a wider track for that solid, planted feel. A sharpedged design with pronounced and muscular wheel-arches. A distinctive nose and long, flowing lines that form a taut and athletic shape. The all-new Accord exudes taste and confidence beyond the ordinary. Not surprising: it’s built for those who have arrived, but don’t stop there.

The look of the new Accord pleases the eye as well as providing greater aerodynamic efficiency. And a nearly flat bottom is achieved by positioning the stamped steel frame rails above and inside the sedan’s body. This improves fuel mileage and reduces interior noise from undercarriage air turbulence. Meanwhile the sedan’s front corners are boldly sculpted and its distinctive lines crafted to perfection. The sleek headlight design further distinguishes this profile. The Accord’s wide opening doors allow passengers easy access into the stylish cabin. And the brilliantly finished, dual exhaust makes for an impressive view from the rear.

The floor is now lower and the wheelbase is longer to provide more space. Tandem space has been increased by 25mm; while the knee space is increased by 35mm. The distance between front occupants has been widened by 40mm to secure an ample front view for rear passengers. And a 15 mm reduction in floor height is achieved through an optimized exhaust system layout, a thinner floor frame and slender fuel tank.

Spacious and selective Ambition needs room to roam. Which is precisely what the all-new Accord provides: a spacious, premium interior with tastefully selected materials and outstanding fit and finish. From the quiet, calm cocoon to the complete suite of controls, the Accord’s interior characterises a strong feeling of personal space, style and sophistication. The all-new Accord. The most spacious sedan in its class.

Elegant, comfortable and highly advanced. These are the key essence of the sedan’s interior design. From its sophisticated décor to the rich leather seats, you can rest assured that it accommodates your taste. The centre instrument panel is also designed for better visibility and operability while the audio and climate control flow seamlessly from both sides of the door lines.

Driving comfort is assured with the multifunction tilt and telescopic steering. The paddle shift reduces unnecessary gear shift-up in cornering and supplies acceleration immediately after making a turn without the driver having to lift a finger from the steering wheel. For driving information, the easy-to-read instrument panel is set to assist you and reduces your fatigue on the road. The audio system is situated on the interface dial and reads MP3 and WMA files or a CD-R and displays the track information on the screen. The centre panel also consists of a premium Dual-zone Automatic Climate Control System that is within reach for you and your passengers.

Power and conscience Greater frugality matched by greater performance and flexibility. The line-up of three advanced new engines boasts some of the lowest emissions in their segment, yet oozes high performance and technology unmatched by many. The all-new Accord completely redefines driving enjoyment with its industryleading refinements and keen considerations for the planet.

The sedan comes with three types of engines: the 2.0 litre SOHC i-VTEC engine, 2.4 litre DOHC i-VTEC engine and the 3.5 litre V6 i-VTEC VCM engine. *Combined with the VCM Technology, a system that activates and deactivates the engine’s cylinders, it meets the demand of both acceleration and fuel savings faithfully. * Applicable for 3.5 V6.

Suspension The improved double wishbone front suspension stabilises braking and steering response. While the new compact in-wheel Multi-link Rear Suspension reduces road noise, vibration and harshness with a 40% increase in rigidity.

Control and response The all-new Accord’s secure handling matches your enthusiasm for sporty driving. A lowered centre of gravity, a wider track and greater body rigidity readily reacts to driver input that in turn, inspires confidence. A quicker steering ratio also keeps with the more agile chassis characteristics for response that is characteristically Honda.

VGR (Variable Gear Ratio Steering System) The VGR steering system responds faithfully to the driver’s intention. It gives precise and good responsive steering manoeuvrability in sharp cornering, parking spaces and when changing lanes at high speeds.

Shift Hold Control Reduces unnecessary gear shift-up in cornering and supplies acceleration immediately after making a turn. The paddle shift system allows the driver to change gears manually without removing hands from the steering wheel.

VCM (Variable Cylinder Management) The new VCM increases high power performance and enhances fuel economy by partially halting the action of some cylinders through freely controlled engine displacement based on the driving pattern.

Noise, Vibration and Harshness Integral to the VCM, comprehensive Noise, Vibration and Harshness systems dampen the roar of the engine, as the engine switches between three, four to six cylinder operations. Special rubber floating mounts, acoustic roof lining, and hood insulators work together to minimise the intrusion of sound into the cabin for a quieter driving experience. Quiet

ACM (Active Control Engine Mount System) Active control engine mounting cancels out annoying engine vibration. ANC (Active Noise Control) Cancels out booming noise by emitting a sound wave with the same amplitude and opposite polarity to the original sound from the audio sound system.

Advanced and powerful performance

(Drive-By-Wire) DBW technology allows for smoother shifting via an electronic throttle control. The linkage to the intelligent Grade Logic Control enhances drive and reduces gear hunting.

Safety has no limits The safety package in the all-new Accord is more armoury than mere assurance. The array of dynamic systems is simply outstanding. Take the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) as an example. It maintains control for the driver during cornering, acceleration and sudden manoeuvres and it modulates the engine torque output as required. It’s just one of the many innovations: for that greater sense of security and responsibility towards safe motoring for all.

VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) Vehicle Stability Assist controls sudden changes in vehicle behaviour, keeping the driver in control. When driving in unexpected situations, or tight cornering, the system stabilises the vehicle, reducing counter-productive driver tension. VSA comes as standard in the 2.4 VTi - L & 3.5 V6.

Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) provides lateral skidding prevention and stabilized cornering.

Front active headrests help mitigate neck shock in a rear-end collision. A link mechanism in the seatback moves the headrest forward and upward to support the passenger’s head.

6 Airbags The all-new Accord is geared with all the safety considerations. The 3.5 V6 is equipped with i-SRS front driver and passenger airbags, side airbags with OPDS and side curtain airbags. While the 2.4 VTi-L is equipped with i-SRS front driver and passenger airbags and side airbags with OPDS. And the 2.0VTi is equipped with i-SRS front driver and passenger airbags.

G-Force Control technology Honda’s original technology controls various forces (G) that are generated upon impact, and helps reduces injury.

Technologies for minimizing injuries to occupants

Collision safety body Controls forces exerted on the car body upon impact and reduces injuries to occupants. Occupant restraint system Controls collision force transferred from the car body to occupants (through use of seatbelts and airbag systems), thus helping improve protection performance and minimizes injury.

Technologies for minimizing injuries to pedestrians

Pedestrian injury reduction Controls force (G) transferred upon impact from the car body to pedestrians and helps reduce injuries.

A highly efficient load-pass frame structure disperses and absorbs all-direction collision impact over a wide area.
