For three decades, Honda has played a leading role in meeting environmental challenges.
Fuel-Efficient
Of course the Accord looks good. But form follows function, because its streamlined shape was designed to improve aerodynamics, enhance gas mileage and increase efficiency. In fact, the Accord Coupe gets an estimated 31 mpg highway*(4-cylinder 5-speed manual vehicles). And, as an added bonus, all Accord models run on regular unleaded gasoline.
ULEV†- and PZEV**-Rated
Honda was the first manufacturer to offer Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles (ULEV)-rated emission technology† on a production vehicle. With the introduction of the 2008 Accord, Honda became the first automaker to offer a lineup that includes both 4-cylinder and V-6 models meeting the even stricter Partial-Zero-Emission Vehicle (PZEV)** standards.
*EPA estimated 22 mpg city/31hwy/25 combined for 4-cylinder models with manual transmission. EPA estimated 19 mpg city/28 hwy/22 combined for V-6 coupe models with automatic transmission and VCM®.
