The Accord has a two-door coupe and four-door sedan variants with either a four- or six-cylinder engine choices. The standard 185 horsepower four-cylinder engine that measures 2.4 liters is provided in both the six-speed manual and the continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) options. The Sport and the Sport Special Edition Series in the 2017 Accord variants have the addition of an extra 4 horsepower to the already existing 185, along with a range of extra exclusive features like bigger 19 inch wheel size, better brakes, a real lip spoiler and the side sills. On the other hand, the 278 horsepower six-cylinder engine 3.5 liter variants have the manual shifting as well as automatic gear control choices. The Accord also has an hybrid version with 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder and two AC motor/generators to deliver a combined 212 horsepower. While the mileage for the normal sedans are as above noted, the hybrid version has high fuel-efficiency by providing a whooping average of around 49 mpg in the city and 52 on highways.

While the car prices may seem exuberant, the Honda Accord does have all the necessary features needed of a typical sedan like good driving and road handling dynamics and stable reliability. This series of the new 2017 Honda Accord is best suited for both, an everyday commuter and for a family road trip on the highway. Although not an high-end car in its class, the car is still the best seller due to its standard features of comfort and economical fuel efficiency. This feature of fuel efficiency is the best in the class due to the fact that there is more driving time in relation to time spent at a pump re-fueling. This series of the Accord has definitely been rated as a driver-friendly and family-friendly car. Most importantly, the 2017 Hand Accord has been infused with technology and has integrated both the Apple Car Play and the Android Auto into the car’s system to ensure ease of use with both navigation and phone apps.
