Positioned as a contender against the Toyota Camry Hybrid, the new Accord model marks a notable advancement in technology and performance. The e: HEV RS variant is priced at $64,900 drive-away, reflecting a $3000 increase compared to its predecessor.

Measuring 4975mm in length, the Accord offers a spacious interior complemented by a 570L boot space. Backed by a five-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty and requiring servicing every 12 months or 10,000km, Honda ensures reliability and peace of mind for owners.
While awaiting ANCAP testing, the 2024 Accord boasts a comprehensive suite of safety features, including autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and more. The e: HEV RS trim comes generously equipped with premium amenities like 18-inch black-finish alloy wheels, adaptive LED headlights, a 12.3-inch Google built-in touchscreen infotainment system, and a 12-speaker Bose sound system.
With embedded Google apps, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a five-year Honda Connect subscription, the Accord offers seamless connectivity and smart features.
