Surprised you’re complaining because usually you begrudge us for sticking onto and still loving old cars and older tech.

It is awful they dropped the 2.0t. I’m not a fan of 4 cylinders but that Accord was seriously fast.

We are back to 1999 Accord power levels, in a much heavier car. Crazy.

Never mind. I just noticed a rear view shot further up in the thread.

Sheesh, this thing is generic as heck.

At that level, I'm starting to agree. If I was going to get an EV it would have to be a really fast one.

Yeah it was about 5.4 seconds 0-60 which is nuts. But forget it, drop a weak hybrid in. Thanks CAFE.

Real world is around 6ish, traction is a major problems and people are dumb and don't realize it needs 91+ octane to hit that a lot of the time. Still, with a tune and competent driver it's crazy for what you pay in a new car no less!

This car screams like it was designed for the Chinese market first. It's larger than before, more cab-forward than before, and the engines have gotten considerably smaller with no more 2.0T.

The current Accord looks like a discount A7, but this one just looks like a generic ten year old sedan. I second the Ford comparison, it resembles a last-gen Mondeo/Fusion. Which was also a car designed for the Chinese market.
