2018 Honda Accord vs. 2018 Honda Civic

 

Here at Honda of Kirkland, we proudly carry a vast inventory of hatchbacks and sedans, and we’ve had the 2018 Honda Accord available for some time now. With the 2018 Honda Civic now hitting the roads of Seattle, it’s worthwhile to think through the differences between the two Honda flagship sedans, the 2018 Honda Accord and 2018 Honda Civic, before you hit the roads of Redmond in your new Honda vehicle. Both the Civi and the Accord offer a myriad of useful features, including:

  • Ample cargo space
  • Efficient fuel-economies
  • Seating for five
  • Available Honda Sensing® suite

The Civic Sedan has five trims to choose from, while the Accord Sedan has six trims. We chose to compare the base, automatic trims of each. While these sedans share many features, they do have their differences too.

Which Honda Sedan Should You Take Home?

With such great options, it can be hard to pick between the Civic and Accord. In general, though, the new Honda Civic will appeal more to Seattle University or University of Washington students, Seattle commuters, and those looking to save money on a car and at the gas pump. On the other hand, the new Honda Accord is more ideal as a family sedan with more room and more power, though it comes at a slightly higher price. Looking for an Accord with fuel economy specs more comparable to the Civic? You may want to turn to the 2018 Honda Accord Hybrid.

Get help choosing your next Honda sedan by taking the new Civic and Accord for a test drive at Honda of Kirkland, located in Kirkland, WA. We offer a rotating selection of lease specials, as well.
