Dave the Car Guy's Car History and Facts: The Honda Accord


DID YOU KNOW the Honda Accord was introduced in the U.S. all the way back in 1976? Yes it has actually been around for a long time! In fact the Accord was part of the first Japanese-owned auto assembly plant in the U.S., starting in 1982 in Marysville, Ohio.


Even more interesting, the Honda Accord "topped the charts" as the best selling car from 1982 to 1997, has consistently been in the top 10 ever since and has been on Car and Driver's "10 Best" list 28 times!


The Accord comes as a 4 door (the most popular) along with other variations over the years including 2-door coupe, 3-door hatchback, 5-door wagon and most recently a Crossover vehicle called the Crosstour. It also comes in many trim types. The top of the line Honda Accord was the EX, with the other options of LX, DX and VP. They have now added some trim types such as Touring, and Sport.


On March 20th the 10 millionth Honda Accord made rolled off the assembly line from the same plant in Ohio!


If you own a Honda Accord, you are definitely in great company (with a great company!) :)
