The eighth-generation Accord mid-cycle facelift was produced in 2013. The Accord is a mid-size car under Honda. The dimensions of this car are 4960mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2800mm. In terms of power, this car is equipped with two engines: one is a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum horsepower of 156 hp, a maximum torque of 189 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6300 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4300 rpm. The 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum horsepower of 179 hp, a maximum torque of 225 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 4500 rpm.
I'm particularly fond of studying Honda cars, especially the Accord series. The eighth-and-a-half generation Accord was actually a mid-cycle facelift model launched by the manufacturer in 2011, with production roughly spanning from late 2010 to early 2011. This facelift brought some interesting changes - the front grille adopted a three-bar design, the bumper was redesigned, and the fog lights took on a sharper shape. For the interior, they upgraded the center console materials and added new function buttons to the steering wheel. I remember when it was first launched, they also added side airbags and vehicle stability control, significantly enhancing the safety features. On the used car market, this model still holds its value quite well today, with high ownership rates, especially the 2.4L powertrain which is considered particularly classic.
