2018 Accord (10th generation)

[Egan101]

Honda will be releasing a new generation of the Accord. Its underpinnings will most likely to be shared with the new Civic and CRV. As for the engines, the venerable K24 of the base Accord might be swapped with a more powerful tune of Honda's 1.5L turbo engine (200 hp) while the top end V6 engine be swapped with a detuned version of the Civic Type R's 2.0L turbo engine (270-280 hp).

While we can't comment on the styling details, the upcoming Accord has nice Civic-like proportions. It's got that more classic cab-rearward design.

Odd beltline shape and those crazy creases will look messy to some.

Accord vs Camry, no brainer for me. Accord takes my vote any day.

2.0L turbo for an Accord, now that's yummy. Tweak it a bit and you can do 320hp.

what's with Toyota's design obsession for the grill overload!?

Oh well. The 2018 Camry will have a brand new 300hp V6. It'll be in my short list of V6 sedans.

The big question is will the new Camry have the same sportiness and handling as an Accord, Passat or Mazda6.

The answer is a predictable no, but the market doesn't care. There are enough players in the sporty midsize sedan field, what Toyota is answering is the bigger chunk of people who look for other things in their cars.

No point in sportiness when 99% of the time, I'm commuting to work or going to the mall. Worse, I'm twiddling my thumbs in bumper to bumper traffic.

Now, If I was charging up the curves of nearby Mt. Lemmon in winter when there is some snow, that would make good use of car handling.

Anywhere else in city streets, sporty handling would only come into play when I'm breaking the law.

^^^ Very true on both points. Nobody can dispute the fact that the Camry is America's best-selling car. However, buyers of midsize cars tend to keep some sense of loyalty with their model of choice. The Accord has always been Honda's marquee model in the US and it has always received warm reviews across its long line of model generations.

If I am in the US, I maybe be enticed to entertain the Fusion Sport AWD as a family midsize car.
