The all-new 2008 Accord Sedan has more style, more comfort and more sophistication than ever. A bold and aggressive look, strokes connoting power and a striking presence with its sheer size make this the most commanding sedan. A roomier cabin with separate air-conditioning vents in the rear makes it the most comfortable ever. Great efforts have gone in ensuring good driving visibility, the thin front pillars maintain sufficient rigidity to position the dashboard forward and lower and flat placement of wipers makes it easier for the driver to see what lies ahead of a corner. The new Honda Accord has been completely redesigned, with a larger wheel-base and Advanced & Powerful new exterior styling. The car has spacious interiors, with upscale luxury features. The overall length and width of the car has increased by 80 mm and 25 mm respectively, making its dimensions best in the class. Although the size of car becomes bigger, there has been no compromise on driving pleasure and fuel economy. At the heart of the Honda Accord is Honda’s advanced 2.4 litre i-VTEC engine that delivers class-leading power of 180 ps which is more than the outgoing Accord and fuel efficiency has been improved by 8%. The engine also delivers outstanding environmental performance and meets Euro-IV emission levels and is E-10 (10% ethanol and 90% unleaded petrol) compatible.

Technology
Renowned for their technology, Honda made further improvements to come out with an advanced 2.4ltr i-VTEC engine that drives more power and optimizes fuel efficiency with cleaner emissions. The new Accord aims at providing one- class above performance in all basic car functions – driving, turning and stopping. It lets the driver experience performance that is beyond specifications. Besides this, the Accord is a thrill to drive with innovative features like Paddle Shift gears and an extremely responsive Drive-by-Wire throttle. The All-new Accord comes with 5-speed Manual Transmission and 5-speed Automatic transmission with Paddle shift, to give the exhilarating experience of F-1 racing. The AT now has Shift Holding System which avoids unnecessary gear shifting on winding roads and helps in hassle free drive. The handling is another key improvement in 8th Generation Accord. The chassis and the body have been renewed by introducing Honda’s latest technology to achieve best in class handling. Together with Variable Gear Ratio (VGR) steering, the new Accord becomes quicker and more agile despite its big size. The new Multi – Link Rear suspension aids in stable driving.
Safety
The all-new Accord is by all measures, an extremely safe car. Both active and passive enhanced protection systems right from the build of the car, plus features like six airbags, ABS, EBD and a G-CON body have helped to achieve a standard of safety that’s commendable. Safety of passengers and pedestrians is a top priority for Honda. The new Accord is equipped with the best of safety technologies, with intelligent six airbags, including side curtain air bags, Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body and G-FORCE Control Technology (G-CON) for enhanced safety of the vehicle occupants during a collision. The use of high-tensile steel has been considerably increased improving torsional rigidity, while also achieving major weight savings.
Comfort
The Eighth Generation Accord is the largest Accord ever. With its large proportions in luxury, comfort and performance you truly enter a class above. It’s got a roomier cabin, there’s more space between the seats in the front, there’s more space and legroom in the rear with separate vents for the air-conditioner as well. The instrument panel is now positioned lower for better visibility. The area around it emphasizes a feeling of width using design that emphasizes horizontal expanse. The wide high quality console adds to the feeling of comfort & luxury inside the cabin.
