For nearly four decades, the Honda Accord has been a stellar representation of Japanese automotive engineering. It has been nearly flawless in its delivery of reliable, economical sedans that are made for families with the sedan but that can be sporty and agile with the coupe.
As we look back at the previous nine generations, witnessing the evolution of the design has been fun. From the small, almost insignificant cars of the late 70s that started to make an impact in the 80s when Americans realized that they drove for a long time to the current models that have a luxurious look and feel without having a luxurious price tag, the Honda Accord has continued to impress critics and drivers across the ages.
Here’s a breakdown of the nine generations with selections that we made of the best representatives from their era. They aren’t the prettiest we could find. They are the most natural. Which was your favorite Accord generation?
