The 11th-generation Accord has a wheelbase of 2,830 mm, which is quite impressive among its peers. I've driven this car several times, and the extended wheelbase makes the rear seats noticeably more spacious. Last week, I took my family on a countryside trip, and even with three adults sitting in the back, it didn't feel crowded at all—there was plenty of legroom. During long drives, my wife and kids slept comfortably in the rear seats, saying it was much better than the older model. The longer wheelbase also enhances the car's stability, preventing it from feeling floaty during high-speed cornering. However, the increased turning radius means you'll need to make a couple more steering adjustments when doing U-turns in older residential areas. In comparison, the Camry's wheelbase is 2,825 mm, and in practice, your knees still end up touching the front seats.
