An almost perfect mid-sized sedan ...

Stan in NH, 08/18/2019
2019 Honda Accord EX-L 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 10A)
I now have just over 1,000 miles on my new 2019 Honda Accord EX-L equipped with the strong 2.0 turbo motor and 10 speed auto transmission. This is a very impressive sedan, with a surprisingly roomy and well appointed interior. So, what's good, and what's not quite so good? The driving experience is excellent. The car tracks well, the steering is on the heavy side ... which I like ... … but is also a bit on the numb side. The 10 speed transmission shifts very smoothly in normal mode, but is not as smooth in the Economy mode, which shifts more often. My EX-L with its 17” tires is very smooth on most road surfaces, and handles solidly with very little body lean or dive and squat. The standard Michelin Energy tires are not noisy. The car tracks very well on center, and highway driving is relaxed. The leather seats are comfortable, but could use a bit more lateral support. Padding is thin, and the passenger side seat has neither a memory function nor a lumbar adjustment. Headroom is generous, and visibility is fine. I did remove the rear headrests to improve visibility out back. The display screen is large, clear, and bright. CarPlay is seamless, and I use Apple Maps as my default navigation. I did not opt for the upgraded, and more expensive, Touring model because CarPlay's navigation is simpler to use and always up to date. The upgraded sound system that comes with the EX and EX-L looks better on paper than it sounds to the ear. With the Surround option enabled, bass response is reduced to almost zero. Without Surround, the system improves and you can get a reasonably balanced sound out of it, but it is not going to impress an audiophile. Interior noise levels are better than I expected, only getting loud over coarse pavement. Wind noise is absent. Fuel economy with bigger 2.0T has been good. I am averaging about 28-30mpg in local mixed driving, and about 32-34mpg with mostly highway driving. Not bad for a high performance turbo that sips regular gas. The safety nannies all work fairly well, although I have grown to hate the Lane Keep Assist, which I keep off. I just can't get comfortable with the car taking over the steering wheel. High beam assist is well done, and you maintain the ability to engage the high beams manually, unlike some other cars. My only disappointment so far has been in the build quality, something I never would have expected in a Honda product. Although the interior is flawless, the outside panel fit borders on poor. Seam gaps are large and uneven, and panel fit is inconsistent. I had my dealer adjust both rear doors, since neither was even close to a flush fit with the rear fenders. A lower trim panel is also not aligned properly, but I'll have that adjusted later. I have also noticed that the windshield glitters with what looks like micro chips when hit directly by sunlight. There are no chips at all, and the car had less than 20 miles on it when I drove it off the lot, so these must be internal reflections of some sort. A little disappointing, I must admit. Overall though, I don't think you can find a better mid sized sedan out there. The Accord handles well, is comfortable, and is a comfortable and practical cruiser. Update: after one year, not a single service issue. The fact that the side mirrors do not adjust with the seat memory is annoying ... and sort of stupid. Fuel economy has gotten better, and highway runs have hit 40 mpg, which is incredible for the 2.0T engine. Two year update: still going strong with no service issues other than one programming recall. Continue to be impressed with the engine, handing, and seat comfort. Also continue to be annoyed with the fact that the side view mirrors are not part of the memory seat recall function and must be adjusted manually between drivers. The lack of a digital speedometer is another omission I don’t understand, although the analog readout is easy to see. My overall opinion of the car has not changed … an exceptional driver's car with a large and comfortable interior. Not perfect, but still best in class. UPDATE 2024: only issue with th car has been a recurring glitch related to a recall. When driving, emergency systems will randomly shut off. This disables cruise control, traction control, anti-lock brakes, etc. The dealer performed a software update as part of a recall, but the car still will do this every few weeks. If I stop and restart the car, the issue goes away. I have been back to the dealer about this, and they just shrug their shoulders. It is random, easy to clear, but very annoying on an otherwise exceptional car.
