I bought a brand new 21 sport 2.0. I was a owner of 2 previous v6 accords and was hesitant at 1st with a turbo but took this thing on a test drive and wow. Car is very smooth and driving on highway it is great. Had great hwy mpg as well. Not a race car but it's a sleeper. 0-60 is 5.5 l.
Just bought 2022 accord sport 2.0t yesterday, going down to pick it up today. I can’t wait! I test drive one last year and decided because of the market, I was gonna keep driving my ‘08 Volvo til the wheels fell off it. I ended up getting to an accident and it was totaled. Really didn’t wanna buy in this market, but if I’ve gotta get into a car, why not the one I want
@@patrickanthony3632 sure did! Although no airbags deployed, I still didn’t have a scratch on me. Just passed a month of owning this Honda and I become happier every day with that car
How much did you spend on it after taxes? were you able to negotiate it down? and did you finance it or paid it upfront? sorry about all the questions, but I could really use the feedback.
I have a 2018 Honda 2.0 Touring sedan and it's one of the best vehicles I ever owned. This is my 3rd Accord I've owned and so far my favorite. The power and handling are great and the fuel economy is decent too. It's in black and the car looks fantastic when cleaned and many people not familiar with cars too much, can't believe it's a Honda.
Thanks for the post. I am planning to pickup a 2021-2022 Accord 10th gen 2.0t touring here soon. I have owned two different generations of Accords over the past 20+ years. And I was hesitant till recently to buy the Accord again. Not because I didn't like it but because I didn't know if I was missing out on what other manufactures were producing. But after many reviews and diving through specs, the 10th gen 2.0t Accord has checked pretty much all the boxes for my next car.
I have a 2021 Honda Accord Sport 2.0, it captivates many all day long. I love the grand yet simplistic interior and exterior of the car & the performance is out of this world definitely a must buy type of vehicle

I have a red 2022 accord sport hybrid 2.0 and love it!!!!!! The car drives so well, gas lasts me a whole month! Literally fill it once a month and I’m good. Also the car is so quiet! You can’t even tell it’s on! Always loved Hondas!!!!
I drove a 2013 accord sport for 4 years. Then I drove a 2017 accord sport for 3 years. Now I drive a 2020 accord sport 2.0 Turbo. Best car ever. You get your money worth. Getting ready for the 2023 accord sport.
I’ve been obsessed with this generation Accord since 2019. It’s sad that this generation didn’t sell as much as Honda anticipated when they first came out in late 2017.
I have a 2018 LX and love it. Will strongly consider selling it once the 2023s are out … and will definitely opt for the 2.0 next time. The 1.5 works well but all that extra power would be nice. 🚗💪
I just purchased 12/27/22 a Honda Accord Sport 2.0 2022 and this car is amazing. Last night I was driving north on 295 in eco mode 2200 rpm and I was doing 95 mph easily.
Enjoyed your review. I opted for the hybrid as my slide into the battery era and my 2nd Honda, (had a Prelude in the 80s.) Honda's done well integrating battery power into this car. I'm hoping the 2023 Hybrid they are spouting (and targeting as the Accord to buy) steps it up even more. The electric feel of this drive is really a great experience.
@@gotentk4 My good friends at Car and Driver got 5.5 second 0-60 mph time, though that's ideal conditions, but 6.0-seconds is entirely reasonable, I would say. Top speed is 126 mph, electronically limited. This test was in an older Accord, but with the same powerrtrain. www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a15079405/2018-honda-accord-20t-automatic-test-review/
I just took down what appeared to be a 2022 Accord 2.0 with my Volvo on the freeway! I was rather surprised and impressed by how confident its driver was to not go down without a fight! Earned my respect, I had to check out its specs! Might easily be a better choice over some BMWs!
Great review and I enjoy your enthusiasm. I have watched this video several times as I have a ‘21 2.0T. Fun car to drive and I like the spacious interior. Nice cruiser on those curvy, hilly interstate highways.
I have this exact same car. I absolutely love it! It's really quick when I need it to be and handles great! I'm in my 50's and I had my 25 year old son with me a few weeks ago and I scared the shit out of him!!!!!! Knew of some curvy roads in our area!!!! I haven't had the car all that long and am still trying to figure out the best mode for fuel economy, but so far with interstate driving, Econ mode is not that great. I get better mileage in regular or sport mode. I'm also disappointed in the fact that when I hit 124mph you can actually feel the computer shut the car down. I don't normally drive that fast but I like to know what my car is capable of. I'm sure that I can have it tuned, but I don't want to mess with the warranty!!!
I always love reading an owners perspective. Thank you for that! Yeah, 124 mph is 200 kph, and an electronic limiter at that speed is not uncommon. Do you happen to know what engine rpms you saw at that speed? True top speed would either be drag limited or engine rev limited. With the correct gearing, I bet you have enough power to go 150 mph. Most of the tires that come on Accord are V rated, which means they can safely sustain 149 mph.
@@gaylenhalbert4391 My guess is since I live in South Dakota and our interstate speed limit is 80mph that the engine has to work much harder in Econ mode. When I'm on the interstate I drive 85-87mph.
I love my 19 2.0t. Just wish I could have bought the 6mt. But the 10 speed is great. My last car was a 16 challenger rt scat pack 392 shaker 6mt. It's not as fast as my challenger but it's a nice sleeper.
Did you know you can have both the tach and any other information be displayed at the same time. You have to go to the setting in radio and toggle tach always on.
Great vid. Power aside, how would you say this compares to the Civic sedan Touring as far as interior quality, driving dynamics and overall noise and refinement as a daily driver?
Thank you! Compared to the Civic Touring? The Accord has a better interior, but only just. The Civic has better driving dynamics. After all, it's lighter and the front-end is just a smidge sharper. Overall noise and refinement, however, is still Accord. You get a bit more to dampen the cacophony of the outside world. My personal choice is Civic. It's the right size and downright playful in the corners. ua-cam.com/video/Sn_-WpPunZQ/v-deo.html
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are Wireless on the EX-L, Sport 2.0T, and Touring 2.0T trims. The EX-L is still the 1.5-liter engine, so one trim with that powertrain gets it.
I would like to see the owner's manual of the 2023 Honda Accord before I decide to purchase one. To see how often the synthetic oil is recommrnded to be changed on a turbo charged engine. I have heard that synthetic oil should be changed every 5K miles to properly maintain the life of the turbo. I have also heard from aftermarket installers that turbochargers will last ~150K miles. Hondas are very well built cars. I heard from aftermarket installers that most turbochargers last ~150K miles. So if that is true and Honda Accord turbos need to be replaced around then, then wouldn't it cost the owner approximately $2.5K to replace it? I know that Mini Coopers with turbos require major $$$ service around 150K miles. Thnx. $2,000 Turbo replacement $ 500 Labor ------------------ $2,500 additional service cost for the turbo.
Why do you guys compare this car with a $50K+ BMW or Genesis car. The Accord 2.0T Sport retails for around $33K. I've owned two BMW's and two Honda's and compare the depreciation of the BWM after 3 years, cost of ownership (money pit) to a Honda. If you like throwing your money away because you "need" a BMW then go for it but to constantly compare the two options is stupid.
You missed my point. I'm explaining that the Honda Accord, despite being a much less expensive, front-wheel-drive family sedan, is enjoyable enough to drive to think of it a bit like a performance sedan. Hence the words on my thumbnail "Punches above its weight."
It depends a bit on what you mean by good and how you'd primarily use it. The 2.0-liter drives really well and supplies more power. That said, the electric motor does a lot to make the hybrid very drivable, with good throttle response even at low speeds. So, around town, it is the best Accord engine offered. And, yes, better than the 1.5-liter, comfortably so. If it's at all helpful, I did also review a Hybrid Accord Touring, link is here: ua-cam.com/video/yaHHt9rIdbw/v-deo.html
I'm considering trading in my car for one of these. For current owners, how is the build quality? Do you think it's worth the extra money to go for the 2.0 over the 1.5?
The build quality is good. It’s a really fun car got my 22 sport 2.0t in January. You definitely want to go with the 2.0 the 1.5 comes with the CVT transmission which is known for having issues.
Depends on your driving a bit. If you mostly commute on the interstate, it's not a huge difference, 35 mpg highway for the 1.5-liter Accord Sport, and 32 mpg for the 2.0-liter Accord Sport. But, city driving is a different story, 29 mpg in the city for the 1.5 verses 22 for the 2.0. That's due to the CVT as much as the engine. And these are the official EPA numbers, by the way. I hope that helps.
I’m a bit confused on the models, when you mention the wireless Apple car play and wireless charging on the top trims, is the sport 2.0 one of those or is it just the touring ? I assume it is available on the sport 2.0 since you showed it but I wasn’t sure if that was just a clip from a different car or something.
Yes. The Sport. 2.0T gets wireless Apple CarPlay. EX-L is beneath the Sport 2.0T, in terms of price anyway. The Sport 2.0T is different than the Sport and Sport Special Edition, which run on the 1.5-liter Turbo.
@@viewsonvehicles awesome thanks. Been really debating on getting a sport 2.0. Been a GM guy my whole life but looking for something more reliable and a bit quicker than my Malibu
Do you mean the engine start push button? If so, that's standard across the board. Do you mean the Sport drive mode button? If so, this Sport 2.0T is the lowest trim to have it, which means the Touring model and hybrids also have it. The LX, Sport, Sport SE, and EX-L trims only have the Econ button. Hope that helps.
@@viewsonvehicles when I look on the build a Honda I only see it on the 2.0 I ordered a 1,5 but it’s still in delivery so now I don’t know if I have the push shift for PRND
I took a closer look, and you're right. I guess the push button PRNDL is trim dependent. Virtually all of the test cars I receive are the most expensive trims. Turns out you get a leather wrapped shift lever on the Sport Trim. The Sport 2.0T and Touring trims get the push button shifters.
In 2021, when the Accord received a mid-cycle refresh, Honda changed the trim levels. In 2020, EX-L 2.0T was just below Touring, but as of 2021 the only two 2.0T models are the Sport 2.0T and the Touring 2.0T. The one and only EX-L trim is the top trim with the 1.5-liter Turbo.
@@geddon436 hmm, depends on the Camry. XSE Camry’s are quite similar, but LE and other Camry trims do ride a bit softer. I, myself, prefer the firmer ride of the Accord.
Absolutely right. In fact, it's fundamentally the same engine in the Honda Civic Type R and that's been 306 horsepower since 2017, even more on the new one. ua-cam.com/video/nT8DcvzgeQ8/v-deo.html
@@viewsonvehicles Honda probably keeping the power level modest for improved reliability and also for lower fuel costs. The Accord 2.0 runs on 87 octane, the Type R engine requires 91 octane.
@@msbrownbeast Octane levels is a good point. And lower peak power makes it easier to provide a broader torque band. I’m just making the point that the engine fundamentals can certainly handle it.

I ordered a 1,5 but it’s still in delivery so now I don’t know if I have the push shift for PRND
I took a closer look, and you're right. I guess the push button PRNDL is trim dependent. Virtually all of the test cars I receive are the most expensive trims. Turns out you get a leather wrapped shift lever on the Sport Trim. The Sport 2.0T and Touring trims get the push button shifters.
Do they still have the EX-L 2.0t? If so that is the trim just below the Touring trims
In 2021, when the Accord received a mid-cycle refresh, Honda changed the trim levels. In 2020, EX-L 2.0T was just below Touring, but as of 2021 the only two 2.0T models are the Sport 2.0T and the Touring 2.0T. The one and only EX-L trim is the top trim with the 1.5-liter Turbo.
@@viewsonvehicles oh ok. Now i know. Thanks
@@Poweezie you’re welcome 👍
You can have tachometer and fuel at the same time

so is the civic or the accord a better drive?
Civic, definitely. But for this class of car, the Accord is nice.
@@viewsonvehicles which one is more comfortable to ride ?
@@geddon436 the Accord is more comfortable between the two.
@@viewsonvehicles what about compared to the camry?
@@geddon436 hmm, depends on the Camry. XSE Camry’s are quite similar, but LE and other Camry trims do ride a bit softer. I, myself, prefer the firmer ride of the Accord.
AND!
AND!!!!!
its a strong car i agree but the road noise is horrible ...
I didn't find road noise to be bad during my test drive. When did you experience it? I'm curious if it's tire specific.
Honda could easily squeeze 300 hp plus out of this engine.
Absolutely right. In fact, it's fundamentally the same engine in the Honda Civic Type R and that's been 306 horsepower since 2017, even more on the new one. ua-cam.com/video/nT8DcvzgeQ8/v-deo.html
@@viewsonvehicles Honda probably keeping the power level modest for improved reliability and also for lower fuel costs. The Accord 2.0 runs on 87 octane, the Type R engine requires 91 octane.
@@msbrownbeast Octane levels is a good point. And lower peak power makes it easier to provide a broader torque band. I’m just making the point that the engine fundamentals can certainly handle it.
@@viewsonvehicles And now for 2023, the 2.0T engine has been discontinued.Sad.
Please we don't need another review
thr 1.5 sucks
