The 10th-generation Honda Accord, which was just launched in Australia last week, has actually been on sale in Thailand since May this year. The D-segment sedan features an all-new design, and along with it are new powertrains as well.
Let’s start with the 1.5 litre VTEC Turbo engine. This four-cylinder mill puts out 188 hp at 5,500 rpm and 260 Nm of torque from 1,600 to 5,000 rpm, and is paired with a CVT which drives the front wheels. The average fuel consumption is rated at 6.5 litres per 100 km, with C02 emissions rated at 149 grams per km.
More interestingly is the new, third-generation hybrid powertrain developed by Honda, called the Intelligent Multi-Mode Drive (i-MMD). This is a two-motor hybrid system that assist the 2.0 litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder engine, which altogether make a combined system output of 212 hp from 5,000 rpm to 6,000 rpm and 315 Nm of torque from zero to 2,000 rpm. The combined fuel economy is 4.3 l/100 km, and CO2 emissions is 98 g/km.
Safety-wise, the Thai-spec Accord gets six airbags, ABS with EBD and brake assist, stability control, a tyre pressure monitoring system and Honda’s LaneWatch camera as standard. Hybrid models get the full Honda Sensing safety features, such as Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Lane Keep Assist System (LKAS), Road Departure Warning (RDW) with Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Auto High Beam (AHB), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low Speed Follow (LSF), and Smart Parking Assist.

R u dumb??wasted spern pls read 1.5t 190hp with 243nm is more powerful thn 2.0 na and even some 2.5 na..stupid
I rather buy this than gas guzzling campro engine. Even this Accord is more economical than our Campro in the Persona
If I drive this car, I can feel proud. I am changing my Proton now.
Sticking a Proton badge on your kapcai doesn’t make it a Proton.
I am proud that my Proton is the same as your Honda but I pay much less than you do.
Smart Ones Gets It bro
It seems honda does it on purpose, designing cars that look good only on alternating generations.
The next one would be an absolute stunner.
But to be fair, it looks quite a lot better in person. This new one isn’t really very photogenic.
Thanks to our depreciating currency, price of cars are way too much
Terima kasih PH!
Proton price turun 3-9K. Terima kasih P1 Baru!
Proton saja turun, lain semua naik? Terima kasih Proton, terima kasih bang Najib. Pegi mampoi Pakatan!
Thank u sapot tegar, brader. 1MDB i sign only, I memang donno. Diorang bagik , I ambik. itu je … becuz they used my acct
Don’t worry bossku. We are with you. Real sick & tired of them dy
We need more people from Mainland to run our car business, GLCs and also Putrajaya.
If we can get 1.6 million people from Mainland to replace the Putrajaya workers, productivity will 10 fold and our ringgit will go up
The problem is not the 1.6million workers but the 100 useless Cabinet ministers. Why pay for 1.6million export workers when it is more cost effective and it works to replace only 100 Cabinet ministers.
but….but…the 100 people are hardworking and the 1.6 million people are lazy and always want bantuan kerajaan
Hardworking at what, bringing down our country and economy? Hardworking to songlap as much possible? I rather have the 1.6million lazy people that are honest in their jobs than these 100 corrupts.
Useless cabinet ministers?
they are performing similar to most GLC/Enterprices/etc top managements, which litterally useless too.
4bini-the problem is the PH regime. if we bring people from mainland, it will be chaos like Hong Kong
Fully agree. It’s high time to kick them out once and for all.
Honda Malaysia wait until they confirmed drop to 4th spot on MAA data before they will wake up and intro these cars into Malaysia. Meanwhile continue to buy their outdated crap.
Just saw it at showroom in sg, actually it’s actual look is far better than in the photo.
Furthermore I think Mazda is kind boring as it’s line design almost same.
I’m guessing the hybrid is higher in the Thai Accord pecking order right? Impressive power and torque output without using any turbo. Just curious, does the hybrid also use CVT like the 1.5 turbo or does it use dual clutch gearbox, like the Jazz and City hybrid? The specs in Thailand is impressive too. Hopefully, Honda Malaysia can get some tax exemptions for the hybrid model, then its pricing will be pretty interesting in Malaysia. Assuming the Accord Hybrid makes it here.
Pity those who don’t have any platform to express their frustration over last GE and use PT to do so.. I see them in every comment section trying to racun the rakyat.. come on la, the comment section is PT is combination of a few person with many dupes.. that’s how you campaign? hahahaha
You shits everywhere and you complain other people shits is smelly? You reap what you sow la. No pity for you.
lol. Gud one!
