Since its global launch in 1976, the Accord has continuously set the benchmark in its segment in terms of advanced technology, sophisticated styling and safety. Over the last 40 years, the Accord has consistently lived up to its recognition as the flagship model of Honda that provides owners with premium features and high level of driving performance. With Honda DNA and Accord values retained, the refined version of 9th Generation Accord will be offering best-in-class value which provides a balance of premium quality and
