The eighth-and-a-half generation Accord refers to the 2013 model year. The so-called difference between the 8th and 8.5th generations is that the latter has some additional features in the interior and functions, such as chassis and handling, while the engine and space remain unchanged. Therefore, these two models are essentially the same. Relevant details are as follows: 1. The increase in size and space is an important highlight of the eighth-generation Accord. Its length, width, and height reach 4945mm, 1845mm, and 1480mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2800mm. In terms of size classification, the eighth-generation Accord's category changed from 'mid-size' to 'large' according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, with dimensions and space surpassing previous models. The spacious size meets customers' demands for comfort. 2. The new interior design fully showcases a high-end and stylish tone. The dashboard is innovatively divided into an upper information area and a lower control area, making the design more ergonomic. The eighth-generation Accord's interior significantly reduces the use of environmentally polluting PVC materials and harmful VOC content, fully reflecting Honda's care for the environment and people.
