![]() Look at the latest Civic, or the brand-new 2023 Honda CR-V, and you’ll get a good preview of where the Accord’s interior is headed-a cleaner look dressed a horizontal-mesh beltline across the dash plus more upscale materials throughout. The appearance on the outside is clean and sleek, without a lot of creasing or cladding. The 2023 Accord is 195.7 inches long-more than three inches longer than its predecessor-but it rides on the exact same 111.4-inch wheelbase and has the same 57.1-inch overall height. The new CR-V Hybrid also added a stepped behavior when the gasoline engine plays generator, plus speaker engine-sound supplementation, although neither are mentioned in Honda’s announcement for the Accord. If it’s anything like the system in the CR-V, drivability will be improved, with the instantaneous electric-motor torque available over a wider speed range than before and the gasoline engine much smoother when it does rev up. That’s part of a reengineered hybrid-system layout, with the two motors no longer on the same axis. ![]() The Accord, like the latest CR-V Hybrid, gets a more powerful fourth-generation version of Honda’s two-mode hybrid system, here with a 2.0-liter direct-injection inline-4, a larger propulsion motor, and a boost to 204 hp and 247 lb-ft. ![]() It will be offered in four of the Accord’s six trim levels: Sport, EX-L, Sport-L, and Touring, with only the LX and EX for the Accord’s base 1.5-liter turbo-4. To get there, Honda has broadened the availability of the hybrid. ![]()
