I have a '21 Accord Touring 2.0T and despite the fact that the '23 has newer tech and gets better fuel economy, I wouldn't even consider it over my '21. The 2.0T is so good in the 10th gen Accord. The more you drive it, the more you appreciate it and love it. It truly is a gem of a vehicle. I was at the dealer getting mine serviced just yesterday and got into a conversation with one of the salespersons and he and I talked about how Honda dumbed down the performance and fun factor in the new model. He said there have been numerous people who have mentioned it and he also encouraged me to keep mine because the demand would be high in the future. I just wish Honda had dropped the 1.5T engine, offered the hybrid as their core engine and kept the 2.0T option for those of us who prefer more performance.
I think what people forget is new federal rules require vehicles to average 40 mpg by 2026. They have the Type R and Type S bringing down the MPG numbers, gotta give it up somewhere else. Type R > 2.0T anyday
Y’all need to get your facts straight. You mentioned multiple times the new accord has wireless Apple car play and the old one didn’t which is wrong. You also talked about the Honda sensing the new accord has with lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, etc. saying it was much safer and easier to drive than the ‘21, but the last gen accord has all that same stuff too. It’s very misleading for people that are actually shopping between these cars and you need to get the information right. The new accord has bigger and nicer screens, but it doesn’t actually have any real new technology in it.
💯 I just got a 2019 2.0 a little over a month ago. So glad I did. Haven't had many chances to stretch its legs, but when I have been able to lay into the throttle, it's incredible! Gas mileage in heavy traffic is pretty bad, even in Eco, but in the burbs and highway, I'm completely satisfied.
I wish they would have kept the front end from the 10th gen and updated it with the rear end from the 11th. Would have been perfect. I just can't get into the front end of these new 11th gen cars.
@@TradLibChinaman same. Not a fan of all that gloss black when the 10th didn't have any at all. The 10th interior is classic if you ask me. I know this as I use to have a 2020 Accord Touring. I like the new exterior of the 11th gen but the front looks ok at best while the rear is a lot better.
I own a 2019 2.0 Turbo. The new Accord is good. But the 10th Generation 2.0 Turbo is a legend. It is just so fun to drive. There are just so many things that you can do with the 2.0. I am planning to customizing its engine and turn it into a 400 HP sleeper.
dudes what are you talkin' about? the 10gen touring and 2.0 sport has wireless android and carplay, you get all the same safety features in the 10gen and as pointed out by another reviewer.. those haven't improved with the 11gen. oh, and the 12.3in screen in the 11gen touring, sport/l and ex-l are standard, not optional.
There is no real reason to upgrade to an 11th gen if you have a 10th, the only difference is that it's slower and hybrid everything else is the same that's why I'm keeping my 10th gen 1.5t 6mt
If you're coming from a hybrid to another hybrid then it makes more sense. For people coming from the 2.0T it's hard to now just get a hybrid if you had no interest whatsoever for it in the past. To me I'm in-between as I like better MPGs but some power at the same time. If this was a 300hp hybrid then that's a different story.
I have a 2018 accord Sport 2.0 turbo. Almost 60,000 miles on the vehicle. Love the car and still good gas mileage. I wouldn't trade the vehicle for anything
As a 2.0T 10th gen owner in my eyes, they butchered the exterior design as well as dropping the 2.0T I think that they never expected the platform to perform like it has. Granted is not a Type R but when you read the Accord badge, it catches some people by surprise. If i could I would swap the interior of the 11th gen into the 10th gen and it'll be perfect
To each his/her own! Once I saw the new 11gen 2023 Accord Hybrid Touring, and saw the fabulous redesign of the dashboard interior, the less gaudy and busy grill and light placements, I was convinced that I should made this trade.

I’ve almost entirely blacked out the silver/chrome on my 9th gen 2017 Sport. I powder coated the rims black and they’re sweet! Plus my 17 is a manual trans which makes it extra fun to drive.

The only thing better on the 11gen Accord is the screens, besides that nothing else is nicer or better!
Buttons for the gear selector is subjective, most people prefer the old school selector, the buttons are unintuitive and not practical. There's something about a real selector 😅

What kind of 🤡 Prefers PUSH BUTTON TRANSMISSION over a proper shift HANDLE ? What is wrong with you Punk ? Real Men want a Real shifter... Not Buttons !
The push buttons are quite childish, right at home in a Fisher Price "my first car". Also an accident waiting to happen when you put a drink down wrong or something while and drop the tranny. Physical gear selector all the way.
I agree 100% I didn't notice it until I saw your comment. From looks alone it's a home run! I'm turned off by the power train. I hate CVT's & I really miss that 3 5 V-6 . I guess time will tell how they hold up & if they do LOL I'll eat my words.
I drove a new 23 a few weeks ago and didn’t gel with it. Wished the steering wheel came closer to the driver, upgraded radio sucked and the base turbo engine kinda felt slow.

I have a ‘21 Accord Touring 2.0T and my dad just got a ‘25 Accord Hybrid Touring. The refinement of his ‘25 is noticeably better than my ‘21. His car is smoother, quieter, has a better sound system, has newer technology, gets a bigger screen and is generally better overall than mine in many areas. The one area that mine shines is in the fun to drive category. As nice as his is, it just can’t compete in pure driving pleasure. Don’t get me wrong. I like driving his car but there is truly something special about my 2.0T power plant that his car fails to capture. It’s so odd to me driving them back to back because it’s clear that the two cars have completely different missions despite the fact that they’re both Honda Accords. It’s hard to say that one is definitively better than the other because it all depends on what you’re looking for in your car. His drives great but lacks the fun factor. Mine is super fun but lags in refinement. If I were to get a new Accord, I could probably adjust and be mostly content with it but I would definitely miss my 2.0T. For now, I’m keeping mine.
Maybe I’m in the minority but I think the 9th generation Accord is the greatest. It looked amazing, and the V6 Touring looked beautiful. I always thought the 10th looked like a Chevy Malibu. The only thing legendary about it was the 10speed turbo. It was quick.
Oh yes, give me the 11th gen, 2023 with less horsepower, less torque, a CVT trans and more bland looks. Common, who are you fooling?! Really? Not buying it Case! Pinky ring and all!
The less horsepower and torque are due to the refinement of the engines done by many automobile companies in their cars bcoz of the strict emission norms issued by the governments of many countries due to the increasing air pollution. That's why EVs are coming in trend now.
Sadly, this will be the path that all auto companies will soon go to once government regulations move to full EV. This is a way of Honda easing us into the future. You will be happy saving money from the gas pump at the end of the day
I just leased a 24 Accord Hybrid Sport and came from a 2020 Sport 2.0T and I really find the new one to be way better. The interior, seat comfort, refinement are all superior to the 10th gen. Don't forget the MPG increase too. My only gripes are no heated seats or mirrors, but those can be added. I got the car discounted a lot from both the dealer and Honda Financial had a good rebate.
Needs to be a bit larger. I LOL about the screen size stuff as while the new one is larger and a bit nicer, the reality is most people use Apple Car Play and Android Auto either way.
I have read that there is no Sirius/xm radio available. Also, the built-in google infotainment will require a subscription after the first 3 year, just one more monthly payment, unless you lease it.
I had the 10th gen, great car but I think the 19 inch wheels are way overkill. Winter tires for those are very expensive. I really don't like this trend of larger wheels and smaller tire side walls. I know it is for looks but not impressed especially with the associated poor ride quality and costs of related rubber. Glad they ditched the push button shifter.
The push-button shifter was one of the best features. It really took only 2 days to adjust to the difference, which really wasn't that different. You do have to "find" the right button instead of the stick, but that is trivial. And easier to do without looking once you learn.Slide your hand down the array while pushing lightly with your index finger, and it just "falls" onto the Reverse button without fail. And the Drive button is so big, with a raised rim, that it is easier to find without looking than the stick. And once you have "soft" shifting, you can change the setting to shift into park when you turn the car off. You really don't use the other buttons except in isolated situations, like a pull-thru car wash for the Neutral button. And then there is the extra room. No, I'm upset they ditched it.
Honda did pretty much the same thing as Mercedes S class did. New car looks smoother and younger, and lost that aggression. Pretty much that happened with the Mercedes W222 it looked like a business class very classy and business style, with W223 that changed.
Man, Combining the 2022 exterior looks/lines with the 2023 interior would be great. Not a fan of the 2023 exterior. Looks like a grandma's car. My 2 cents worth.
Honestly, for my 2021 Accord 2.0T for whatever it's worth, the tech I can put in manually from the 2023 through aftermarket but putting a 2.0 engine in a 2023 is literally impossible, I love my 2021/22, they need to bring that back.
I don't love the design of the new Accord, but I traded my 21 Sport 1.5T for a 24 EX-L Hybrid and I feel it's a big improvement in comfort and ride quality. The 21 was really harsh and noisy on bumpy roads and the 23 is so smooth
Interior of the newer model feels cheaper though its cleaner. Honda used lots of plastic and cost cutting. The 2021 Sport 2.0 is far superior to the 2023 Sport Hybrid(full cloth seats in the newer one). AC vent nobs have cheaper feeling plastic. The fit and finish is not even close and you can see it in current dealership pricing. They'd throw in deals to get you to take the 2023 but will not budge so much on price for the older generation as it has more market demand and value. Test drove both.
and for $40 I added it to my 2019 Touring which makes it nice for local drives. Longer drives I still just plug it in to charge. My passengers use the wireless charging but I like my phone where I can see it.
All the auto journalists over the past decade plus complaining about hard plastics in the interior, thank you. Because of this non stop complaining cars are now ridiculously priced. Nicer materials mean higher prices. These are not luxury vehicles. Hard plastics can do their job and look good if done properly. Keep the touch points nice and thats it. Easier to clean and most of all easier to afford. I prefer the prior gen accord. The 2.0T motor is my choice. Dropping that motor drops the accord from a vehicle I would buy. Plus the new accord looks like a new take on the older ford taurus. Not my cup of tea.
I remember getting into the 10th gen accord at a collision repair place that I worked at an I was blown away by the interior it almost seemed like I hopped into a rolls Royce which is saying a lot for an economy car that interior is so nice which is what has me on the fence between the 10th gen and the 11th gen
Flashy isnt always good and honestly ur nit picking if hard plastic points are an issue its a not lexus but yeah the 10th gen is way better especially with the manual and 2.0 T engine
Agree the 10th gen was the killer looking car outside but love the new tech updates inside on the new one. The new one outside isn't a head turner like the 10th gen was.
I came across this video as I was curious about the horsepower differences between my 2019 Sport 2.0 and the new Accord. These guys came across to me as salesmen for the new Honda Accord 😅 I'm a Honda girl, but not really impressed with the new design. I love my 2019 Accord, but will admit android auto sucks at times connecting, so I hope that the feature was improved upon in the newer Accords. Nevertheless, I understand why my Honda svs guys always tell me to never sell my Accord. Probably has alot to do with it being a 2.0T manual transmission with low mileage.
No it doesn’t😂 I just bought my wife the 11th gen sport and I wouldn’t trade it for a 10th gen even if they gave me money on top, stock for stock the 11th gen is better but customized I have to agree the 10th gen is sleeker, but that’s it
My biggest regret: getting rid of my 10th generation to get the 11th generation Accord. Honda has cheaped out on everything 2023+. My Honda has so many issues. Don't get fooled by the new tech; they eliminated other features and amenities as well. Build quality is abismal, and the interior is awful loud.
I might consider the red 5th generation you did a short on recently. It's everything I want and nothing I don't. Plus, 67 miles on a 29 year old car is pretty much new anyways.
Agree. My 2.0t pulls down 34-36mpg on the highway already so 41mpg there isn't a huge gain. In the city it gets 20-22 mpg with my spirited fun but had they paired the 2.0t with a battery pack, it too could easily pull down 44mpg AND Still be fun and then when desired could actually have been quick a bit quicker. They totally missed the mark IMO.
“We need the car to be fun” No i’m just a ni&&a trying to get to work. Thats all i need out of a honda accord. If i want something fun i will go buy something fun! Everyone want fun out of everything and thats just not the case
Hello iam debating between these two cars for my son a 2023 nissan altima SR FWD with 25000 miles or a 2023 honda accord hybryd sport with 36000 miles?? The nissan altima is $22,546 and the honda hybrid is $25,000. I found several nissan altimas sr that are cheaper than honda hybrid. They have another nissan sr 2023 with 16,000 miles for $23,463. Dont know which car to get?
In my opinion, Honda 2.0T engine with 10 speed gearbox is an amazing car. Its performance on the road, the pickup, the reduced road noise in cabin (low RPMs), gear ratio, unique gear style in the cabin, sleek design, are all the points to go for 10th gen 2.0T. I really wish, Honda would have continues 2.0T option in 11th generation, as there is a proper fan base for those engines and gears!
Chevy Malibu? 😢 Get real! I am intrigued at how many amateur auto design engineers there are out there.....obviously, working in some other occupational fields. The easiest job in the world is a critic!

It’s so odd to me driving them back to back because it’s clear that the two cars have completely different missions despite the fact that they’re both Honda Accords. It’s hard to say that one is definitively better than the other because it all depends on what you’re looking for in your car. His drives great but lacks the fun factor. Mine is super fun but lags in refinement. If I were to get a new Accord, I could probably adjust and be mostly content with it but I would definitely miss my 2.0T. For now, I’m keeping mine.
Maybe I’m in the minority but I think the 9th generation Accord is the greatest. It looked amazing, and the V6 Touring looked beautiful. I always thought the 10th looked like a Chevy Malibu. The only thing legendary about it was the 10speed turbo. It was quick.
Oh yes, give me the 11th gen, 2023 with less horsepower, less torque, a CVT trans and more bland looks. Common, who are you fooling?! Really? Not buying it Case! Pinky ring and all!
Agreed
The less horsepower and torque are due to the refinement of the engines done by many automobile companies in their cars bcoz of the strict emission norms issued by the governments of many countries due to the increasing air pollution. That's why EVs are coming in trend now.
Sadly, this will be the path that all auto companies will soon go to once government regulations move to full EV. This is a way of Honda easing us into the future. You will be happy saving money from the gas pump at the end of the day
This feels more like an ad for the new gen, but you can’t convince people to get rid of their 2.0’s.
Dear god I love the new Accord. Just saw it go down our streets and its so clean.
Fun video. Finally the rare car worth the purchase price. Like Camrys, Accords have always been excellent.
I just leased a 24 Accord Hybrid Sport and came from a 2020 Sport 2.0T and I really find the new one to be way better. The interior, seat comfort, refinement are all superior to the 10th gen. Don't forget the MPG increase too. My only gripes are no heated seats or mirrors, but those can be added. I got the car discounted a lot from both the dealer and Honda Financial had a good rebate.
Wow, that volume knob and filler panel under the screen seems to be a huge afterthought
Well it is not, and you are clueless
It was
Needs to be a bit larger. I LOL about the screen size stuff as while the new one is larger and a bit nicer, the reality is most people use Apple Car Play and Android Auto either way.
I have read that there is no Sirius/xm radio available. Also, the built-in google infotainment will require a subscription after the first 3 year, just one more monthly payment, unless you lease it.
I had the 10th gen, great car but I think the 19 inch wheels are way overkill. Winter tires for those are very expensive. I really don't like this trend of larger wheels and smaller tire side walls. I know it is for looks but not impressed especially with the associated poor ride quality and costs of related rubber. Glad they ditched the push button shifter.
The push-button shifter was one of the best features. It really took only 2 days to adjust to the difference, which really wasn't that different. You do have to "find" the right button instead of the stick, but that is trivial. And easier to do without looking once you learn.Slide your hand down the array while pushing lightly with your index finger, and it just "falls" onto the Reverse button without fail. And the Drive button is so big, with a raised rim, that it is easier to find without looking than the stick. And once you have "soft" shifting, you can change the setting to shift into park when you turn the car off. You really don't use the other buttons except in isolated situations, like a pull-thru car wash for the Neutral button.
And then there is the extra room. No, I'm upset they ditched it.
Honda did pretty much the same thing as Mercedes S class did. New car looks smoother and younger, and lost that aggression. Pretty much that happened with the Mercedes W222 it looked like a business class very classy and business style, with W223 that changed.
Man, Combining the 2022 exterior looks/lines with the 2023 interior would be great. Not a fan of the 2023 exterior. Looks like a grandma's car. My 2 cents worth.
Oh my god! U r so right! I was about to say the same damn thang. 2021-2022 accord ❤
@@JohnDoe-hp5nnjust got the 2021 Ex-L they tried so hard to put me in the 2023 platypus NO SIR lol
Big differences between this two older looks more sport oriented. New one looks more old people way. Of course the older is the best choice.
10th gen has wireless CarPlay in 2.0T trims
Honestly, for my 2021 Accord 2.0T for whatever it's worth, the tech I can put in manually from the 2023 through aftermarket but putting a 2.0 engine in a 2023 is literally impossible, I love my 2021/22, they need to bring that back.
The previous generation looks much newer than the upcoming 2023 models!
I don't love the design of the new Accord, but I traded my 21 Sport 1.5T for a 24 EX-L Hybrid and I feel it's a big improvement in comfort and ride quality. The 21 was really harsh and noisy on bumpy roads and the 23 is so smooth
Interior of the newer model feels cheaper though its cleaner. Honda used lots of plastic and cost cutting. The 2021 Sport 2.0 is far superior to the 2023 Sport Hybrid(full cloth seats in the newer one). AC vent nobs have cheaper feeling plastic. The fit and finish is not even close and you can see it in current dealership pricing. They'd throw in deals to get you to take the 2023 but will not budge so much on price for the older generation as it has more market demand and value. Test drove both.
The 2021 Touring comes with wireless Apple Carplay and Anroid Auto.
and for $40 I added it to my 2019 Touring which makes it nice for local drives. Longer drives I still just plug it in to charge. My passengers use the wireless charging but I like my phone where I can see it.
I like the look of the new Accord but wish they had more 1.5T options than just the base models. Some of us like our non-electric vehicles.
I have a 23 touring you can't even notice it's a hybrid till you look at your fuel consumption
All the auto journalists over the past decade plus complaining about hard plastics in the interior, thank you. Because of this non stop complaining cars are now ridiculously priced. Nicer materials mean higher prices. These are not luxury vehicles. Hard plastics can do their job and look good if done properly. Keep the touch points nice and thats it. Easier to clean and most of all easier to afford.
I prefer the prior gen accord. The 2.0T motor is my choice. Dropping that motor drops the accord from a vehicle I would buy. Plus the new accord looks like a new take on the older ford taurus. Not my cup of tea.
i'm not so sure on how many more features it has. other than the hybrid features they're pretty much the same.
I mean this nicely.. If you want a cheap accord, simply buy a used accord.
Wireless CarPlay is also on the 21-22 Touring model.
I like both but the new interior is superior
I remember getting into the 10th gen accord at a collision repair place that I worked at an I was blown away by the interior it almost seemed like I hopped into a rolls Royce which is saying a lot for an economy car that interior is so nice which is what has me on the fence between the 10th gen and the 11th gen
Flashy isnt always good and honestly ur nit picking if hard plastic points are an issue its a not lexus but yeah the 10th gen is way better especially with the manual and 2.0 T engine
I really like the new interior.
I rather the old style then the new it’s not quite there yet with the new 😊
they took a step back as far as exterior design in my opinion
New one is so much better
new accord front end kind of looks like a less aggressive 24 mustang.
ive always prefered the 2022 honda accord 2.0 sport way more thsn the new 2023 accord
Agree the 10th gen was the killer looking car outside but love the new tech updates inside on the new one. The new one outside isn't a head turner like the 10th gen was.
I came across this video as I was curious about the horsepower differences between my 2019 Sport 2.0 and the new Accord. These guys came across to me as salesmen for the new Honda Accord 😅 I'm a Honda girl, but not really impressed with the new design. I love my 2019 Accord, but will admit android auto sucks at times connecting, so I hope that the feature was improved upon in the newer Accords. Nevertheless, I understand why my Honda svs guys always tell me to never sell my Accord. Probably has alot to do with it being a 2.0T manual transmission with low mileage.
21 look like a dodge charger front grill and 2023 look like a ford Taurus,Honda hrv looks like a ford edge !
I went to get the brand new accord and ended up buying 22 sport 2.0. The new design sucks when you see that in person lol
No it doesn’t😂 I just bought my wife the 11th gen sport and I wouldn’t trade it for a 10th gen even if they gave me money on top, stock for stock the 11th gen is better but customized I have to agree the 10th gen is sleeker, but that’s it
23 version looks like a ford Taurus aka a platypus 😂
I got a '23 Accord on Turo while on vacation and am about to buy one. Way better than the 2021
Honda Acvord " Inspire " looks better...waaay better. But only available in JAPAN.
This thing looks like..WTF!!!
I love the 10th generating, better typing and faster engine.
The '21 Accord taillights (that generation at least) looks like a stapler to me. Once you see it, you can't unsee it
Ugliest rear lights ever!
The only good thing about the new 2023 Accord is the space and the interior
My biggest regret: getting rid of my 10th generation to get the 11th generation Accord. Honda has cheaped out on everything 2023+. My Honda has so many issues. Don't get fooled by the new tech; they eliminated other features and amenities as well. Build quality is abismal, and the interior is awful loud.
My beast is the 8th Gen 2.0 Accord. Its responsive and great to drive around. Looking fwd to get the 2025 Hybrid
I’m so mad they changed the body I ended up with a 2024 civic because the accords are ugly.
I have a 2021, it’s my favorite Honda accord design ever. 2023 is a bit too low key.
Soooo the old accord (10th gen) looks better on da outside but da new accord is better on the inside….styling and techwise…
How did Honda drop the ball on the exterior in this one? Smh
I wish they still did the 17" wheels where you could get 47+ mpg. I got that in my '19 accord hybrid touring until I got non eco tires.
They do. Get the Accord Hybrid EX-L trim. Combined fuel economy is 48.
I might consider the red 5th generation you did a short on recently. It's everything I want and nothing I don't. Plus, 67 miles on a 29 year old car is pretty much new anyways.
Wish they made it a turbo hybrid 😅
Agree. My 2.0t pulls down 34-36mpg on the highway already so 41mpg there isn't a huge gain. In the city it gets 20-22 mpg with my spirited fun but had they paired the 2.0t with a battery pack, it too could easily pull down 44mpg AND Still be fun and then when desired could actually have been quick a bit quicker. They totally missed the mark IMO.
I love my 2018 2.0 sport. I think Honda messed up with 2023. The interior is nice but that's where it stops for me
Does the Honda key still have the window controls in it?
“We need the car to be fun”
No i’m just a ni&&a trying to get to work. Thats all i need out of a honda accord. If i want something fun i will go buy something fun! Everyone want fun out of everything and thats just not the case
I like the way my 18 touring looks a lot better.
I have a 2015 v6 accord with a 2.5L. Is it faster than the touring hybrid 2023?
They got the 10th Gen right. It’s a perfect sedan. All they needed to do was keep the 2.0t and make minor adjustments to the front end.
Love the new 2023! The tail lights and interior are on point.
R u being for real? U have no taste in cars
Hated the 2023 when it first dropped but I seen a few in person and it grew on me
Hello iam debating between these two cars for my son a 2023 nissan altima SR FWD with 25000 miles or a 2023 honda accord hybryd sport with 36000 miles?? The nissan altima is $22,546 and the honda hybrid is $25,000. I found several nissan altimas sr that are cheaper than honda hybrid. They have another nissan sr 2023 with 16,000 miles for $23,463.
Dont know which car to get?
Great comparison video, Guys. I am a first-time viewer.😊
2012 accord 2.4 172k miles and running strong
Wish they would have kept the body and just upgraded the interior
In my opinion, Honda 2.0T engine with 10 speed gearbox is an amazing car. Its performance on the road, the pickup, the reduced road noise in cabin (low RPMs), gear ratio, unique gear style in the cabin, sleek design, are all the points to go for 10th gen 2.0T. I really wish, Honda would have continues 2.0T option in 11th generation, as there is a proper fan base for those engines and gears!
Congrats honda..your new accord looks like ford taurus now. 10th gen looks better
New one kinda looks like a chevy malibu
Chevy Malibu? 😢 Get real! I am intrigued at how many amateur auto design engineers there are out there.....obviously, working in some other occupational fields. The easiest job in the world is a critic!
