Honda Accord 2020 - the tenth generation of the modern sedan

The updated version of the Honda Accord 2020 turned out to be even more presentable. It is known that under the hood there are two installations for 1.5 and 2.0 liters, with a capacity of 192 and 252 horsepower. In addition, buyers can choose a hybrid version.

Technical specifications

The tenth generation is on a single platform with the Civic and CR-V. In this regard, the size of the car is also preserved, only with a slight decrease. Thus, the length of the "tenth" reaches 4.85 meters, and the width and height are designated at 1.86 and 1.46 meters, respectively. The wheelbase, on the contrary, increased in size and reached 2.83 meters.

Changes have also occurred with the composition of the alloys. The body is 54% made of high-strength steel. Laser welding technology is used to secure the roof, and a solid seam significantly increases the strength of the structure. As a result, we can note an increase in torsional rigidity by more than 30%. The curb weight also decreased by more than 50 kg.

The front part involves the installation of a MacPherson suspension with modified levers. The rear part is represented by a multi-link design. The engineers made every effort to make it as compact as possible. For an additional fee, the owner can get adaptive shock absorbers and two options for settings. As a result, the increase in the wheelbase led to the appearance of additional space in the cabin and trunk. The latter, according to the American EPA standard, can accommodate up to 473 liters of cargo, which is 26 liters more than its predecessor. The addition of the back of the sofa allows you to increase this figure. If necessary, the sofa can be folded in the proportion of 60:40.

At the moment, the following versions are available in America:

• turbocharged "four" for 1.5 liters with a capacity of 192 hp and 260 Nm of torque;
• 2.0-liter turbocharged two-cylinder engine with 252 horsepower and 372 Nm of torque.

Together with the first, an upgraded CVT is installed, the second involves the installation of a 10-speed automatic planetary-type gearbox. For the first time, such a unit was installed on a 5-generation Odyssey minivan. The complete set of the Sport Honda Accord 2020 implies the appearance of a 6-speed manual transmission. Regardless of the selected modification, the drive is front-wheel drive. Recall that in the American version there is also a hybrid version, where the dominant role is assigned to the 2.0-liter engine and two electric ones.

Design

In the front part, you can note the appearance of new outlines, which were only available for the concepts of the "hydrogen" line of Honda Clarity Fuel Cell. In particular, a shield-shaped radiator grille, narrowed headlights adjacent to the chrome molding are installed.

In profile, the long hood becomes obvious, which visually shifts the cab to the rear. There is also a sloping roof and a small tail of the trunk. As a result, the new silhouette becomes graceful and fast. The designers also worked out the coefficient of dynamic resistance, reducing it by 3%. The rear part received new C-shaped lights. The design of the wheels, which resembles a propeller, looks interesting. In the cabin, the changes met expectations: expensive plastic, a multimedia system, the possibility of choosing fabric and leather upholstery. The designers abandoned the classic design of the box in favor of a push-button control panel. On test drives, users confirmed the improved visibility.
