The Accord has established a solid history because it is well designed, and well executed. Consumers also enjoy the reasonable price associated with the vehicle. The Accord is an ideal family-oriented car with a unique design. It hosts the exterior styling of a midsize car but it gains an EPA classification of a large vehicle due to its spacious cabin.
The Accord is visually appealing but its platform is outdated. The 2011 redesigns enhance some of the interior components, the fuel economy of the vehicle, and its stylish appearance only. Competitors of the vehicle host six-speed automatic transmissions or CVTs. Meanwhile the Accord for 2011 still holds onto its five forward gears transmission. Competitive vehicles have better driving manners and a quieter ride. However, none of the competitors can match the Accord's impressive on-the-road handling.
