Honda Accord

A regular on our 10Best list (including 2014), the Accord is also one of America’s bestselling cars, capable of being tailored exactly to buyers’ needs. Sedan and coupe models offer a 2.4-liter four-cylinder or a 3.5-liter V-6. A hybrid sedan is offered; a plug-in hybrid has limited availability. Regardless of engine, handling is responsive; conservative styling and the lack of a manual gearbox for V-6 sedans are on the short list of gripes.
