What's New For the 2020 Honda Accord?

If you're searching for a mid-size sedan, the 2020 Accord should be at the top of your list. And, if you're considering making the switch to a crossover, the Accord is still a worthwhile contender. Its refinement, space, and driving dynamics deliver incredible value. For the 2020 model year, the hybrid version gives an alert tone when it's running on electricity alone; this feature will soon be required on all cars capable of silent operation. Apart from that slight change, the Accord remains the same.
