Both the Accord coupe and sedan are considered a 2016 Top Safety Pick+ (the highest honor) from the IIHS for receiving the highest rating of “Good” in all crash evaluations (small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength, and head restraints and seats) and for receiving the highest rating of “Superior” for the front crash prevention evaluation. The highest rating was given because the sedan and coupe completely avoided both 12-mph and 25-mph frontal collisions with the use of the automatic braking feature. The Accord was able to do this with the help of the Honda Sensing suite of driver assist and safety technologies that are available on all trim levels (standard on Touring trims), unlike many of its rivals. Honda Sensing includes Collision Mitigation Braking system (automatic braking), Lane Keeping Assist System, Road Departure Mitigation System, and adaptive cruise control. What We Think In a of the 2016 Honda Accord, we liked the quick acceleration (from the standard four-cylinder engine), the smooth CVT, the optional six-speed manual, the decent fuel economy, the adequate handling, the eye-catching 19-inch wheels, and the availability of Honda Sensing on all trims. However, we didn’t care for the lack of a volume knob, and we recommend buyers skip the improved navigation system for smartphone linked navigation through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

“For those who don’t make car-buying decisions on the basis of knobs, the spacious and quieter 2016 Accord is a solid bet.” In of the 2017 Honda Accord V-6 Touring (only minor changes between 2016 and 2017), many editors did not care for the newly redesigned exterior and said, “This one is a lumpen mess visually.” However, some overlooked the outside and liked the crisp brakes, lack of understeer, and the sedan’s safety and packaging. Cool Fact Honda’s latest Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure, along with new ultra-high-strength door rings, is designed to absorb and disperse energy produced from a frontal collision in an effort to help better protect occupants in an accident.

Share on Facebook Tweet this Share The 2016 Accord maintains its dominant position as the best midsize sedan. A sedan buyer wants two things above all: reliability and utility. So like a trusted take-out joint or favorite restaurant, midsize-vehicle makers are consistent. But since today’s consumer can easily be swayed to purchase a crossover when previously a midsize sedan was the go-to, a modern sedan needs to validate its existence more than ever. Some automakers choose to layer in “fun-to-drive” personality, class-leading technology, advanced safety systems, fuel-efficient engines, or luxurious ride quality to stand out from the pack.

And like a good restaurant chain, you know what you’ll get, since each brand has staked its raison d’etre in the sedan world with a few signature traits. The 2016 Honda Accord is what every automaker wants to build and every consumer needs to own: a good car.

The lay of the land (through the eyes, hands, and feet of yours truly) is as follows: The Toyota Camry is the beige of the automotive color palette that comfortably, frugally, and reliably will commute you and your family wherever it is Camry buyers go for eternity. The Mazda6 takes the road less traveled (as long as it has curves) by delivering excellent handling and top-class fuel economy in a sensuous package. The Ford Fusion is a style-forward, fuel-sipping midsize statement for those who are insulted by the Toyota Camry, but inevitably desire its nonexistent maintenance bill. The Nissan Altima is an athlete of a sedan, with good power and a compliant chassis (and a woeful CVT transmission). The Hyundai Sonata is a wildcard with intuitive interior technology, handsome looks, and a surprisingly peppy powertrain.

The Subaru Legacy is another performance leader that seeks to reward good drivers in all weather conditions, while the Volkswagen Passat delivers ample storage space and a “lets not think outside the box” attitude. The Kia Optima is a Hyundai Sonata with a quirky design and LED taillights, and the Chevy Malibu is somewhat desperate to find its place in the sedan world.

I’ve just listed nine rivals for the 2016 Honda Accord, and yet the may never notice it has competition. It’s been leading the sales charge for years now. After spending some seat time in the 2016 Accord, I’ve concluded that Honda’s money-printing sedan, through the combination of body styles and trim levels, is the rover of its segment: competent in every category a midsize sedan consumer would value — but confined to its generalist designation. What’s in a facelift?

Honda declares that it has tweaked the handling and steering feel for a more dynamic ride, quieted the cabin, made the chassis more rigid and the body more aerodynamic, improved the ride comfort, and further modernized the safety and convenience technology. The 2016 model year Accord is easy to distinguish thanks to its revised front and rear fascia, with styling inspired by the 10th generation Civic concept. LED headlights, turn signals, and taillights, optional 19-inch wheels, and a more steeply descending hood freshen the new Accord’s appearance.

There are also three new exterior colors for the sedan: Kona Coffee, Lunar Silver, and San Morino Red, and two new colors for the coupe: deep-opal metallic and lunar silver. Inside, the cabin has been refreshed with a 7.0-inch touchscreen, rear 60:40 split folding seats, a cleaner dash, sport pedals, new trim colors, and better quality seats. On the Sport trim, a new shift knob, faux carbon-fiber trim panel, cloth/leather combination seats, and gloss black interior touches have been added.

Honda’s first application of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are now on offer in EX, EX-L, and Touring trims. I had a chance to play around with both systems and found them wonderfully intuitive. Honda also has made its suite of Honda Sensing safety technologies available on all trim levels. The suite includes Collision Mitigation Braking, Road Departure Mitigation, Lane Keeping Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control. I experienced each of these systems on the 2016 Honda Pilot and I was once again blown away by how intelligently each feature works with the Accord’s steering, braking, and throttle inputs. Honda’s safety technologies are truly ahead of the curve.
