Borrowing design cues from the upscale Acura, Honda gave the Accord a much-needed redesign and interior update for 2008. The popular mid-size sedan now delivers more of just about everything compared to the previous year's Accord. The completely new, more aggressive exterior design features such elements as a six-point grille, swept-back multi-reflector halogen headlights, dual chrome exhaust pipes, and wide-opening doors that make it easier to climb into and out of the vehicle. Honda also stretched the '08 Accord by more than three inches overall, widened it by an inch, and raised it an inch taller, resulting in the most interior room ever for an Accord. In fact, based on its interior space, the EPA actually rates the new Accord as a full-size sedan. The 2008 Honda Accord has generated consistently high marks from drivers and reviewers. The Accord's interior spaciousness in particular, as well as its good gas mileage, smooth ride, and well-equipped cabin, as well as its overall quality, all were noted by drivers. Overall, they seem to like the new exterior design, and an overwhelming majority of drivers feel the Accord delivers good value.
