Just traded in my 2014 Touring for a 2021, and I have to say... the accord once again goes above the intended segment and competes well with higher makers. This is truly an impressive car and the 2021 touring wheels get lots of comments. Great looking ride.

What was your otd price?

Story time brothers: My wife loves BMW(she has a pristine E39 M5 w/ only 52k miles on it). In 2018, her lease on a 2015 530i came up, but over the years we've just noticed you get less bang for your buck on German lower trim cars vs the midsizers from Honda, Toyota, Mazda, and Kia. So we went out to look at the then-new Camry and Accord. Driving is a large part of what she does daily being in medical equipment sales(especially these days), so the vehicle must be very comfortable, drives well, latest autonomous tech, quiet enough, etc. We first went to Toyota, where she liked the styling of the Camry XSE, but was let down by no Android Auto(at the time), and poor seat comfort. We then went to Honda where she fell in love with the Accord Touring(calling it a knock-off Audi A7🤣), but two things ruined it for her: The NFC badge etched into the fake wood as like fire to her eyes, and the wheels...the freaking wheels. I even offered to change them once we bought the car, but nope, she was not having it. So, back to BMW we went for another 5-Series lease. Interestingly, that vehicle did not have cooled seats, very little autonomous driver aides, no remote start, and no Android Auto. But short on time and liking the styling of the new 5-Series, she got another. Enter 11/6/2020: The lease being up on the BMW, we went back to Honda to check out the updates to the Accord, and viola, we actually bought it(not leased). (We also headed over to Kia to see if the K5 2.5T was available, but it was not). Over the 2018 we considered, this Touring certainly seems quieter, in addition to the other attributes that make the Accord so good. I believe its faster and more efficient than the 530i, and it doesn't drive all that much worse, despite being FWD. The steering is actually better(no surprise, being a Honda). We went with the Radiant Red Metallic and it just sets the car off so good with the new wheels. Overall, we are very impressed thus far.

I drove my first Accord 7th Gen for 13 years (brand new off the lot till 130k miles zero issues), traded it in on a 9th Gen Accord Sport CVT, and it has around 100k on it now. Looking to buy a 2021 Accord Touring 2.0t really soon. Cannot wait to get the updated 10th gen 2.0t. I will say, I miss my 7th gen v6 Accord. And I am pretty sure it would have kept going all this time, with minor issues.

@@yarbaystrength My 2016 Accord LX has just under 210k on it, I plan to keep it for a few more years before I make a big upgrade anytime soon. The 10th Gen Accord Touring 2.0L Turbo is high on that list if I do decide too eventually, it's sad they got rid of it for the 11th gen just to make the TLX more appealing but they're both great cars.

Who would’ve thought that the accord is a Mercedes in 2021. Car looks amazing

I think it's best in this segment... Much better than competitors 👍🏻 Thank you for this wonderful video🤩

The ideal choice when buying an accord The new but already beloved 2.0t with the 10speed

The headlights were always fully LED for the touring trim but now all trims will have them as standard equipment. Also, the full suite of Honda Sensing has been standard for all trims since 2018.

Right in time for lunch :) Thank you guys

you guys need to do a Q&A! what got you into cars? What were you first cars? how long videos take to make? etc..

Got a Honda Accord Sport 2.0T 2021 and it is phenomenal, seeing this just reenforces my admiration for this car model, performance is out of this world and i always catch the eyes of my audience…s.n i like my carbon fiber interior better tho.

Wow the accord is awesome with the fully loaded touring nice job

Wow!!! Those wheels are man’s best creation.

Got the 2022 hybrid, and people still can’t believe it’s a Honda. The hybrid sounds plus the sexy trim people keep on wondering what it is.

You guys helped me make my decision on getting a 2018 EX-L a couple of years ago and I appreciate your review of the cars you look at. I will definitely be looking at the Touring when it’s time to replace my current Accord, especially upgrading to the 2.0 engine. Keep up the good work!

I have the 2019 Accord Touring 2.0T in white pearl and it is an outstanding car for the price, I love all the features and design! I believe the wheels on mine look better than this one, the only think I am jealous from the 2021 is the wireless android auto feature.

Spent quite a bit of time nearly 2 years ago comparing the Accord 2.0L Touring with the Camry XSE V6 and the Mazda6. On my personal checklist the Accord earned first place followed by the Mazda and the Toyota. I think that same order would hold for 2021. On the other hand, I wouldn't pull the trigger without a thorough examination of the Kia K5 GT and the Sonata N-Line.

Seems like I hear a rumbling noise from the 19" wheels? They need performance tires which are more expensive and wear out faster; correct me if I'm wrong. Plus, they ride a bit more rough on rough roads as compared to regular all season tires on 18" wheels?

That sounds similar to the old Honda chimes we used to hear. Does the door chime on the 2021 Accord have the classic "beep-beep-beep-beep" like the older Hondas used to have?

Love it

Gorgeous vehicle and one of the best automotive values period!

I want those rims on my 17 accord touring !!

A good mid cycle refresh but the wheels are a no go for me. Last year wheels on the touring looks much better in that trim. If Honda made a sportier version and tweaked that rear design than it would be a good look.

All it need is the 360 camera view and a panoramic roof ….

I'm two years late!! Also I still buy one bro.

Heated steering wheel is a dealer installed option here in the states.

I wish car manufacturers could make up their mind and have all LED lights, or none. It makes it look cheap when you have leds and then have incandescent in the back or front.

I need to see the accord compared to the 2021 Hyundai Sonata N line

This car seems great. All of the air balls are things I don’t care about at all.

Have you compared the 2.0 Accord with the 2.0 Malibu? Would like to see a comparison between the two.

These wheels are very Outstanding instead of classy but I like them

I looked at the 2024 Accords and was so disappointed to see that the 2.0/10 no longer exists in the lineup that I found a really low mileage (8K) 2022 Sport 2.0t and had to buy it. Your experiences with the 2021 mirror mine with the 2022. Fantastic car that should have survived in the lineup. The motor/trans combo is rare in a car in this price range with this much else to offer. Nice review.

I just bought the 2021 Sport SE and I’m not sure how I feel about that stop/start thing when you stop. I know I can shut it off and also not activate it by fully depressing the brake pedal, but doesn’t that kill your starter over time? Also, I grew up in the 90’s and was always told it takes more gas to shut your car off and start it back up then just let it idle. I’m sure the Honda team knew what they were doing when they did this but I just can’t see it being something good long term.
