Overview
By midsize sedan standards, the Honda Accord features sleek, fastback exterior styling that wouldn’t look out of place on a German luxury sport sedan. In contrast, the Toyota Camry’s styling ranges from rather bland to quite aggressive, depending on the trim level. Both cars feature spacious, comfortable interiors with intuitive controls, bright touchscreens, and room for five, but the Honda Accord is slightly larger, giving it the advantage in terms of interior space and trunk capacity. Advanced safety and convenience features, including adaptive cruise control, are either standard or optional on these family sedans. Both are available with a fuel-efficient gas engine, and an Accord hybrid or Camry hybrid is also available, though only the Toyota Camry offers a V6 option and all-wheel drive. Although the driving dynamics of the Camry are much improved from previous models, it still can’t match the Accord. In terms of ride quality and overall refinement, the Camry may hold a slight edge, but we’re talking shades of gray here. While not as roomy or flexible as today’s popular SUVs, these are both excellent family sedans – you can’t go wrong with either one.
