What are the differences between the Accord and the Inspire?
1 Answers
The main difference between the Accord and the Inspire is that the Inspire can be seen as a Honda Accord with a sportier body kit and a more sport-tuned suspension. Below are the detailed comparisons: 1. The Honda INSPIRE measures 4910mm in length, 1862mm in width, 1450mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2830mm. Compared to the Accord, it is clear that the increased length is primarily due to the sportier body kit, while the width, height, and wheelbase remain largely the same as the Accord. The difference between the Honda INSPIRE and the Accord is similar to the distinction between the standard Honda Spirior and its SI version, featuring a more aggressive exterior styling kit. 2. In terms of powertrain, both models are equipped with a 1.5T high-power engine paired with a CVT transmission, delivering a maximum power of 194ps and a maximum torque of 260Nm. Although the INSPIRE is slightly longer and taller than the Accord, the difference is negligible, and the actual interior space of both vehicles is very similar. In terms of features, the Accord offers a slightly more comprehensive configuration than the INSPIRE. 3. The high-power entry-level version of the Accord comes with additional features such as front and rear side airbags, a rearview camera, cruise control, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-adjustable front seats, heated and power-folding side mirrors, making it more feature-rich and cost-effective compared to the INSPIRE. However, it is worth noting that the INSPIRE meets the China 6 emission standards, while the currently available Accord only meets the China 5 standards.
