Compared to the Toyota Camry, the Honda Accord offers a higher city MPG rating, increased torque for faster acceleration, a bigger trunk to store your things, a more spacious cabin for you and your passengers to relax, and many additional advantages waiting to be explored.

The new Honda Accord comes standard with a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, delivering a satisfying balance of power and efficiency.
