Powertrains and Performance
Accord Coupe offers three engines: a 2.4-liter i-VTEC® 4-cylinder, putting out 190 hp; and two versions of a 271-hp, 3.5-liter V-6 i-VTEC (automatic models) and the 6-speed manual transmission.
i-VTEC engines, which come standard in all Accord Coupes (except V-6 6MT), add more power and efficiency at all engine speeds. And the V-6 features the latest generation of Honda’s Variable Cylinder Management™ (VCM®) technology, which activates the engine’s cylinders as needed, providing both brisk acceleration and fuel savings.
Honda power meets razor-sharp handling, thanks to a low center of gravity and a multi-link rear suspension. In the 4-cylinder models, choose a quick-shifting 5-speed manual transmission or an available 5-speed automatic. In the Accord EX-L V-6 Coupe, go with the standard 5-speed automatic or opt for the close-ratio 6-speed manual
Safety
Front, front side and side curtain airbags come standard on all Accord models to help prevent injuries in a collision. The front side airbags employ a large dual-chamber design, and the front passenger’s side airbag uses the Occupant Position Detection System to prevent deployment if a child or small-statured passenger is out of position and in the airbag’s path of deployment. And active front head restraints help reduce whiplash injuries in a sufficient rear impact.
Interior Design and Special Features
Available leather-trimmed, deep-bolstered seats and a driver’s seat with eight-way power adjustment (EX-L) beg you to indulge.
The Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™ with voice recognition is a seemingly endless resource of information, including restaurant ratings and reviews from Zagat Survey®.
Included with the available Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System™, Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® enables you to make hands-free calls with many Bluetooth-compatible phones. And steering wheel-mounted controls allow you to easily access cruise, audio, navigation and hands-free functions.
Accord LX features a 160-watt AM/FM/CD audio system with 6 speakers and a 6-disc in-dash changer. Step up to the EX, and enjoy a 270-watt AM/FM/6-disc in-dash premium audio system and XM® Radio†. And all Accord audio systems.
