How Many Generations of Accord Are There?
2 Answers
There are ten generations of the Accord, which can be distinguished by year and core technology configurations. Taking the 2021 Accord as an example, it is a midsize car with body dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, a wheelbase of 2830mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters. The 2021 Accord is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 143kW and a maximum torque of 260Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). It features a front MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear multi-link independent suspension.
To be honest, I'm particularly familiar with the Honda Accord. Since its first launch in 1976, it has gone through a total of eleven generations! Each generation has its own distinct characteristics: the first generation in the 1980s focused on being economical and practical, driving like a toy car; the second to fourth generations gradually became larger and more comfortable, starting to use more reliable engines; the fifth generation introduced more safety technologies in the 1990s; the seventh and eighth generations had more rounded designs and enhanced technological features; from the ninth generation onward, hybrid systems were added, making the driving experience smoother. As an old car enthusiast myself, I follow the auctions and collections of each generation. For example, the fourth generation was very popular in China due to its high cost-performance ratio. Remembering the generations is crucial when buying used cars, as it helps avoid outdated models with obsolete technology. The latest eleventh generation was launched last year, and its ultra-cool screen controls make me envious, though my budget doesn't allow for it. In short, the evolution of the Accord through these eleven generations has witnessed major transformations in automotive history!
