Road Test
Honda Accord Saloon 2.2 i-CDTi Executive
Test Date 18 November 2003
Price When New £20,600
Verdict
The more time you spend with the Accord I-CDTi the more you appreciate Honda’s achievement. In the current Accord – a great handling, solid and very well finished motor car – the new engine finds a formidable partner. At £20200 for the fully loaded Executive model, the Accord is nearly as expensive as the BMW 320d, but there’s no denying its brand hasn’t the same kudos. It’s also beaten in outright performance terms by the BMW, but the Accord experience is sufficiently different and stronger in other areas to hold an appeal all of its own. Some things are worth waiting for.
