Super TestCar reviews - Honda - Accord - V6-L sedanHonda modelsOverviewHonda clearly tried to appease American family car buyers with its CG Accord series29 Mar 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON HONDA Australia equipped the family-sized Accord with a V6 for the first time in 1997. Overall, the car lacks charisma despite remaining a worthy contender in the junior prestige market. The Accord is reasonably big inside for a Japanese car and well fitted out, even at entry level. The V6 needs to be revved to give its best although it sounds as if it enjoys that sort of treatment. A four-cylinder is available for considerably less. Model release date: 1 December 1997 to 1 May 2003 Did you know?The US-built 1997 model Accord was the first non-Japanese made Accord sedan to reach our shoresAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen Previous modelA quiet achiever in the prestige class, Honda's front-drive Accord brought Japanese quality, luxury and performance to compete with Audis and Saabs. The single camshaft, 4-cylinder 2.2-litre engine performed well, the 107kW version used in the VTi-S a little better. |
