The 2005 Honda Accord is the seventh-generation model, with its most notable feature being the 2.4L i-VTEC engine. The seventh-generation Honda Accord was equipped with a 2.4L DOHC i-VTEC engine, delivering a maximum power of 125kW and peak torque of 220Nm, paired with a 5AT transmission. Additionally, this model came with numerous comfort and safety features, such as a NAVI navigation system, VSA vehicle stability control system, electronic throttle, and side curtain airbags. The new Accord offers two powertrain options: a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine combined with an electric motor. Details are as follows: The 1.5T turbocharged engine variant produces a maximum horsepower of 194hp (143kW) and peak torque of 260Nm, mated to a CVT transmission. It reaches maximum power at 5500rpm, features direct fuel injection, and uses a MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension. In the 2.0L naturally aspirated engine + electric motor powertrain, the engine delivers 146hp (158kW), while the electric motor provides 135kW and 315Nm of torque. The single front-mounted motor is paired with a lithium-ion battery and an E-CVT transmission. The suspension setup includes MacPherson struts at the front and a multi-link system at the rear.

Speaking of the 2005 Honda Accord, as someone who has studied automotive history since childhood, I can tell you it belongs to the seventh-generation Accord. This generation was produced from 2003 and continued until 2007 when it was replaced. The seventh-generation Accord was a significant change at the time—it was larger in size than its predecessor, offered more spacious interiors, and introduced new VTEC engine technology to improve fuel efficiency. If you're looking to buy a used Accord now, this generation is considered a classic. Just remember to check for common issues like aging suspension or electronic system failures—it’ll help you find a good deal.

I drove a 2005 Accord a few years ago and it was amazing! Confirmed it was the seventh-generation model, designed between 2003 and 2007, truly durable with smooth handling and more comfortable interior than I expected. I bought it mainly for its fuel efficiency and reliability, averaging only about 8 liters per 100 kilometers in city driving. Thinking back, it was still a great value. Just a reminder, if you're looking for such an old car, pay attention to the maintenance records, as a 17-year-old vehicle is prone to component wear.
