The 5-year resale value of the Accord is around 47%. Below are the specific details about the Accord: 1. The Honda Accord is a mid-size sedan under GAC Honda, available in both gasoline and hybrid versions. It has a length, width, and height of 4893mm, 1862mm, and 1449mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. 2. The Accord prioritizes safety performance, featuring a standard VSA system and front-seat side airbags. 3. The Accord is equipped with world-leading i-VTEC and VTEC engines. The i-VTEC engine combines Honda's VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control) technology with VTC (Variable Timing Control) technology, which continuously adjusts the valve timing across different engine speeds. This results in strong torque output and responsive acceleration. Through the ECU (Electronic Control Unit), the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves are precisely controlled, optimizing the engine's combustion state. This achieves an ideal balance of high power output, low fuel consumption, and clean emissions.

The Accord holds its value quite well. Having driven Honda cars for over a decade, I feel the Accord ranks among the top in Japanese cars. Generally, a new car retains about 60% to 70% of its value after three years, and around 50% after five years. When I bought the car, I was drawn to Honda's reliability. It can run 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers without major issues, has low maintenance costs, and is fuel-efficient—these factors make it highly sought after in the used car market. It holds up just as well as the Camry in the same class, especially the hybrid version, which retains even higher value. For daily driving, sticking to regular maintenance and avoiding accidents can help fetch a better price when reselling. Overall, for family users, choosing the Accord is a cost-effective option—it holds its value steadily and is worry-free.

From an economic perspective, the Accord generally retains over 65% of its value after three years, dropping to around 55% after five years. Key factors include Honda's reputation for durability, fuel efficiency, and strong market demand, with base and mid-trim models holding value better. I frequently monitor the used car market and find Accords sell quickly without depreciating as rapidly as German cars. I recommend avoiding top-trim versions and uncommon colors when purchasing. Well-documented maintenance records can boost residual value by 10%, minimizing losses when trading in. The low repair costs resulting from reliability are a major plus, making it a practical and budget-friendly first car for young buyers.

Having dealt with many second-hand transactions, I can say the Accord holds its value remarkably well. A three-year-old model still retains over 60% of its original price, and even after five years, it's worth slightly more than half. The Honda brand enjoys high trust due to fewer minor issues and lower fuel consumption, making it sell fast with steady profits. Compared to the Volkswagen Magotan, the Accord has greater demand and is more sought after in the market. Opting for simple configurations when buying new helps maintain value, and driving gently with regular maintenance ensures a good resale price. Remember, models with lower mileage and common colors are more popular, keeping the resale value stable.

What Causes the Abnormal Noise When Braking in a New Car?

The reasons for abnormal noise when braking in a new car are: 1. The brake pads are in the break-in period. New brake pads and brake discs require a break-in process, and this abnormal noise is normal during this time; 2. Metal particles appear in the brake pads. The original factory brake pads that come with the car are semi-metallic, and when worn to a certain extent, unevenly distributed high-hardness metal particles may appear. These metal particles spread across the brake pads and create noise when in contact with the brake disc; 3. Excessive wear of the brake disc and brake pads. When excessively worn, abnormal noise may occur, so regular inspection and replacement are necessary. The replacement cycle for brake pads is 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, and for brake discs, it is 100,000 to 120,000 kilometers; 4. Deformation of the brake disc. If the car produces abnormal noise and vibration when braking, it may be due to a deformed brake disc, which requires replacement.

How should the driver handle a rear tire blowout?

The driver's response to a rear tire blowout: When a rear tire blows out, the rear of the car will sway and bounce. The driver should firmly grip the steering wheel with both hands to keep the car moving straight, then press the brake pedal several times to create braking and shift the vehicle's pressure forward using inertia, thereby reducing the load on the rear tire. Subsequently, the car should be brought to a slow stop. It is crucial not to use emergency braking to stop the car when a rear tire blows out, as this could cause the vehicle to skid sideways and damage the wheels. Since the rear wheels do not have a steering function and generally bear less weight compared to the front wheels, a rear tire blowout is not extremely dangerous. Simply holding the steering wheel steady is sufficient.

What is the function of the engine intake manifold?

The function of the engine intake manifold is to distribute the combustible mixture supplied by the carburetor to each cylinder, collect the exhaust gases after the operation of each cylinder, and deliver them to the exhaust pipe and muffler before being discharged into the atmosphere. The intake manifold is usually made of cast iron, but it can also be cast from aluminum alloy. These two materials can be cast as one piece or separately. The intake manifold is fixed to the cylinder block or cylinder head with studs, and asbestos gaskets are installed at the joint surfaces to prevent air leakage. The intake manifold is located between the throttle valve and the engine intake valve. It is called a manifold because after air enters the throttle valve, it passes through the manifold buffer system, and the air flow path diverges here, corresponding to the number of engine cylinders. For example, a four-cylinder engine has four paths, and a five-cylinder engine has five paths, directing air into each cylinder respectively.
