2010 Honda Accord Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...The doors in our test car had embarrassingly cheap molded plastic inserts; cloth inserts appear to have fallen victim to the cost-cutting ogre. So have chrome door handles, which were once a Honda staple. The old Accord had near-Volkswagen levels of cabin quality. Honda needs to find those glory days again. In contrast to the cloth, EX-L models have a nice grade of leather, as well as heated seats and dual-zone automatic climate control. A navigation system is optional; it's easy enough to use, but the low-resolution graphics are due for an update. Trunk volume, at 14 cubic feet, is at the... |

2010 Honda Accord Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...EPA ratings for the four-cylinder Accord models with either engine are 21 mpg city/31 highway with the automatic transmission, and 22/31 for the manual. For the V-6 sedan, which comes only with the automatic, the ratings are 19/29. To help the V-6 engine achieve better fuel economy, it comes with a new computerized cylinder-deactivation system that cuts out either two or three of the cylinders during highway cruising, depending on speed and accelerator position. Trim levels for the sedan are the base LX and the slightly better-equipped LX-P, with the 177-horsepower engine; the EX, with the... |

Why should I also consider these?
The current-generation Accord, which was introduced for 2008, finally gets a beautiful interior worthy of taking on the best in its class.
To match that, the Accord grows a little more refined without steering away from the sporty driving feel it’s always had relative to others in its class.
The Passat remains a solid competitor with its 2.0T four-cylinder engine, but spotty reliability and somewhat higher running costs lessen the appeal.
And of course the best-selling Camry is one of its top rivals; the Camry is competitive with the Accord in most respects, but its ride is more comfort-oriented and less sporty, and the quality of the interior materials is disappointing relative to the competition.
Perhaps the closest competitor to the Accord is the Altima, which provides a similar mix of sporty road manners and well-controlled ride quality, plus good styling inside and out.
The Ford Fusion competes with the sportier side of the Accord; it’s been greatly improved for 2010, thanks to a refined new base engine.
And as with the Honda, you can get the Fusion with a manual transmission.
However, the Fusion is a bit smaller.
Another top rival is the Chevrolet Malibu, which has a beautiful interior and comfortable ride but doesn’t feel quite as nimble.
Versus the Honda Accord Coupe, the only serious rival is the Nissan Altima Coupe.
Compared to the Honda, the Nissan feels a little bit sportier but also quite a bit less refined, as well as more cramped inside.
