It was in 2001 that the first Accord launched in the Indian market. Over the years, the carmaker launched various generations of the sedan in the country.
The 8th generation Accord, which was launched in 2009 could be called the most exciting of these, as it had one of the finest V6 engines of its time on offer. The 3.0L V6 petrol engine used to make 275 hp and 339Nm! It came mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission and had Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) for added fuel efficiency. There was also a smaller 2.4 Litre i-VTEC engine available previously, which was capable of producing 178bhp and 222 Nm.
Even the design was a notable evolution from its predecessors. The proportions and road presence also improved on the gen-8 car. The bodywork now had stronger character lines and cleaner panels. It looked good and felt quintessential to drive. The cabin had generous room and was packed with features and equipment. This generation of Accord managed to impress critics, enthusiasts and layman buyers in the country.
The Accord can be as reliable as a Toyota- proves history! Arun Ghosh, an Indian from Canada previously made headlines by driving his Accord V6 for over 1 million kilometres! Of course, he did not put all these miles on the odo all by himself. The point, however, is that the engine and the car can do a million miles if kept and used well.
