The midsize family car acclaimed as America's favorite is the redesigned 2008
Honda Accord Coupe. Whether you sign on for the basic no-frills entry LX model
or the refined EX-L, expect the same level of workmanship and essential safety
features. Equipped with either an aluminum alloy 4-cylinder that pumps out 177
or 190 horsepower, or the V6 with 268 horsepower, you can also equip your Accord
with a 5-speed automatic or manual transmission.
Starting with the strong, quiet foundation of unit-body construction, the 2008
Accord performs with solid, reassuring stability. Handling with the agility of a
slot car is not easily done without the sedan's double wishbone front
suspension. Being on the American road for over thirty years has benefited Honda
by rewarding its continued efforts to design the optimal family vehicle.
Larger than ever before, you first notice the difference in Accord's
wide-opening doors: allowing easier entry and exit for driver and passengers.
The 2008 Accord looks more imposing and substantial than before, with bold,
assertive body lines, and new distinctive grille. The eye-catching chrome door
handles and exhaust tips, and the option of 17" wheels add to the car's
commanding presence.
Honda attributes its accomplishments in part to its unswerving goal of equipping
its cars with today's most successful technologies. The V6 engine that powers
the 2008 Accord uses Variable Cylinder Management to cut power to cylinders when
demand is low, and power up all cylinders when acceleration and torque are
called for. Emissions control is imperative in Honda's mission statement, as is
born out in Accord being rated as a Partial Zero-Emissions Vehicle.
From the inside out, the 2008 Honda Accord sedan is improved on all parameters.
The styling for the new year is conservative but powerful. In the Accord, safety
is assured with its anti-lock disc brakes and standard front and side curtain
airbags. The complete remake of the 2008 Accord will make believers of many
current luxury car owners looking for a new car this year.
