What to check on the Accord

In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.

What the specs mean

Its powertrain is the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Its combined rating is 7.1 L/100 km, which means roughly 21 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $11.01 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,050 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Space and size

Being a large sedan, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. EPA lists 481 litres of luggage space, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Good uses for the Accord

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Accord answers the big questions. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

What it costs to run

The EPA estimates US$2,050 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Choosing the right one

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
