Exterior
The exterior is a critical component in a vehicle’s overall design. The front grille is highly sophisticated and sporty, adding so much elegance to the 2015 Honda Accord Sedan. The wheels of this elegant sedan exude class and sophistication, and it’s made from the best alloys available in the market. The good part is that these wheel specs come standard in every 2015 Honda accord model.
Performance
The innovative technologies included in the 2015 Honda Accord Sedans have ensured that they remained unrivaled in the engine and overall performance. These 2015 Accord Sedan come with two engine variants, the first of which is the 185hp, 2.4ltr engine and the second, a 3.5 liter, 278-hp engine. The 185hp engine variant comes with Earth Dream Technology, DOHC i-VTEC, 16-Valve, 2.4-litre, 4-Cylinder Engine. The variable timing controls of the 185hp variant is enhanced as a result of Earth Dream technology, which has significant effect on the Accord’s VTEC engines.
The 278-hp engine variant comes with SOHC i-VTEC, 24-Valve, 3.5-Liter, V-6 engine. You would always get excellent performance at any engine speed, as a result the of the Accord’s V-6’s i-VTEC system. Optimal fuel efficiency, as well as superb acceleration, is guaranteed as a result of its Variable Cylinder Management (VCM).
Safety
The 2015 Honda Accord sedan comes with a variety of advanced safety features designed to ensure the personal safety of its occupants. Some of its safety features include: Dual stage, Multiple-Threshold Front Airbags, Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Side Curtain Airbags, SmartVent Front Side Airbags, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control, Lane departure warning and many others.
Perhaps, one of the most impressive safety features is the Forward Collision Warning (FCW). This system acts as a radar system for the 2015 Honda Accord. It’s either mounted at the top of the front grille or top of the front windshield. It scans the frontal path of the moving vehicle, and then calculates the approximate distance between the Accord and the object in front, and then alerts the driver of impending collision if the gap is too narrow. It then activates audible or visual alerts, depending on the model.
Another impressive safety feature worth mentioning is the Dual-Stage Multiple-Threshold Front Airbags (SRS). This technology allows the dual frontal airbags inflate at different rates, depending on the extent of impact and the angle it receives much of it. For example, the airbag at the frontal passenger’s dashboard may deploy faster than that in the driver’s steering, if the passenger compartment receives a stronger frontal impact, thereby helping to protect occupants against injuries. However, airbags only act as supplements to seatbelts, not replacements! So it’s advisable to always fasten your seatbelts when driving for improved safety.
Environment
Honda has taken the leadership role in curbing carbon emission with its Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles (ULEV) ratings, thereby helping to create a sustainable environment for all. Its Accord sedans also come with Eco Assist systems. Depending on the efficiency at which the driver is driving, the coaching bars around the speedometers will change color from white to green. Green color indicates that the vehicle is moving at an efficient rate, thereby helping the driver achieve more mileage per gallon. The ECON button also gives the driver the ability to instruct the vehicle fuel-consuming systems to automatically operate efficiently.
The 2015 Honda Accord Sedan is quite impressive in all facets, perhaps, the most impressive of them all are the environmental and safety features. With the kind of roads we have in this country as well as the persistent problems associated with procuring gasoline, it is pertinent you examine these key areas with “keen eyes,” so as to get the best value for money as well as improve your personal safety and those of the people you care about.
