The Honda Accord is a sedan produced by Honda in 1976 for the global market.

The origin of the car name comes from the English word "Accord" and was born from Honda's philosophy of "seeking the ideal form of a car in harmony between people and cars".

In 1976, the 1st generation Accord was launched with the aim of reaching the global market. Initially, it was only a 3-door hatchback, and a sedan was added the following year. The exterior adopted a form that looks like the performance of the 1st generation "Civic" has been improved.

The drive system adopted FF, and the engine was a horizontal layout. The installed 1.6L in-line 4 engine was equipped with a CVCC engine that cleared the strict US emissions regulations "Muskie Act" at the time, realizing excellent environmental performance.

The 2nd generation appeared in 1981. As an international car for the new era of FF, the body is one size larger than the 1st generation. Like the original Accord, there was a 3-door hatchback and a 4-door sedan, and the styling was sharper while maintaining the straight line. In addition, it is also a model that actively adopts the latest technology such as cruise control and the world's first speed-responsive variable power steering.

The 3rd generation, which appeared in 1985, adopted a low and wide form that crawled on the ground. The engine was equipped with a 1.8L and 2L in-line 4-cylinder gasoline engine, and the 2.0Si, the top model, used a 2L in-line 4-cylinder DOHC engine. It also introduced a number of new technologies, such as the world's first 4-wheel double wishbone suspension for a FF vehicle.

The 4th generation, which appeared in 1989, has improved comfort by expanding the body size and extending the wheelbase. The engine lineup was also renewed, and it was also characterized by the 4-wheel steering system and ABS.

In 1993, the 5th generation, which was the first 3 number size in the series, appeared. The engine to be installed is equipped with a 2.2L straight 4 DOHC VTEC that achieves a maximum output of 190ps.

The 6th generation that appeared in 1997 was reduced from the previous 3 number size to 5 number size. While inheriting the image of the predecessor, it changed to a tighter form. In addition, the series' first 4WD was also set with this model.

In 2002, the 7th generation was introduced. The exterior design has a presence that was born from the pursuit of aerodynamic performance, and achieved the world's top level aerodynamic performance Cd value of 0.26.

The 8th generation, which appeared in 2008, has improved comfort due to the expansion of the body size. In addition, overall driving performance has been improved, and the latest safe driving support system has been adopted.

From the 9th generation that appeared in 2013, the Accord became a hybrid-only model. This model was equipped with an innovative 2-motor hybrid system called Sports Hybrid i-MMD. It is a new-generation hybrid sedan that achieves high-quality driving suitable for a high-end sedan and overwhelmingly low fuel consumption of 30.0km/L (JC08 mode).

The 10th generation, which appeared in 2020, adopted a new global small platform. Compared to the previous model, the overall length of the car body was reduced, and the exterior design was wide and low. The powertrain is equipped with Honda's unique hybrid system "e:HEV" that realizes powerful acceleration and smooth running unique to 2 motors. It also comes standard with Honda SENSING, an advanced safe driving support system.
