About Honda Accord
The 2007 Honda Accord continues the trend. It’s available as a coupe or sedan with a four-cylinder or V6 engine. In a nutshell, Honda provides a set number of standard features to each trim. The Value Package trim is the most affordable, and the luxurious EX-L is the most expensive. The Accord Hybrid is also available for 2007. The Hybrid is the most powerful and elite Accord in the lineup, thanks to the company’s third-generation IMA electric assist system paired with a gasoline V6 power plant.
Customers looking for a midsize sedan or coupe for 2007 should be aware that the current Honda Accord is one of the older options on the market. Its most recent complete redesign was for the 2003 model year. Make no mistake: the Accord, like Nolan Ryan for the Texas Rangers, still has the goods to back up its legendary name. However, the Accord is beginning to show its age in a few areas. Some of its features and design elements are beginning to feel dated, and the Hybrid’s real-world fuel economy is underwhelming. While we still strongly recommend the Accord, consider the new Toyota Camry or Volkswagen Passat before making a final decision.
