The new 2.4 litre advanced i-VTEC delivering 180 PS and 222 Nm torque is complemented by superb handling and control with features like
VGR, an improved suspension and a new chassis.
VGR (Variable Gearing Ratio for Steering)
The new Accord takes full advantage of the Variable Gear Ratio (VGR) steering system,which respond faithfully to the driver's intentions. This is why, despite its larger dimensions, the new Accord achieves superb maneuverability with a smaller turning radius.
Advanced Suspension

Mult-Link Rear Suspension ensures a smoother drive and adds stability when taking fast turns. Higher front and rear roll centers improve
handling and provide a more comfortable drive. Overall, the new Accord delivers an improved response, better road grip, reduced tyre input
and a lesser pitch and roll.
New Plateform Chassis and Rigid Body
Underbody airflow management significantly reduces drag and lift in the all-new Accord. Moreover, the floor is lowered for better airflow
managrment and maneuverability.
The Eighth Generation Accord is one of the most spacious, luxuriously appointed sedans in its class.While its comfortable interiors let you
trully enter a class above , its expensive interior creats a lot more space.
A lower positioned instrument panel and an innovatively designed front piller aid better visibility.

ABS, EBD
All Accord models feature 4-wheel disc brakes with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Brake Assist. Also standard is Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD)., helping braking performance by distributing brake force among
the four wheels is bearing.
Active Headrests
Front active headrests help mitigate neck shock in a rear-end collision. A link mechanism in the seatback moves the headrests forward and upward to support the passenger's head.
Advanced Seatbelt System
Front 3-point seat belts with automatic tensioning system ride across the lap and chest to help restrain occupants during sudden stops or impact.
G-CON
Honda's original G-CON technology reduces the impact in the event of a car crash. Impact absorbing zones created with engineering expertise distribute G-force through the body structure. It also features pedestrain
safely. In the event of a person coming in front of the car, it controls G force transferred from the car to the person and helps reduce injuries. |
