Bro you got a Hyundai? That Accord is miles ahead of any Hyundai

Good honest review presented in a balanced manner. A car definitely has to be comfortable to drive. I have owned my Sport 2.0 for just a few months and so far zero issues. Good luck with your new car. I hope it brings you fun and comfort.

I bought a 2022 Honda Accord 2.OT three months ago and I absolutely love my car.. worth every penny. The only down fall about it is the blurry back up Camera, but after all the car is a beast.. I wouldn’t compare anything to it especially a Hyundai! 😂🤣

I have a Touring 2.0t and this hasn't been my experience. Maybe because I have leather seats but I found them to actually be way more comfortable than every other car I've had. I've taken mine on a few cross-country trips, and the seats felt way more plush and less fatiguing, and even passengers said the same thing. Even the seats in my parent's Lexus feel way stiffer and less comfortable. I've also found the front to be really spacious in terms of breathing room, I don't feel shoulder to shoulder with my passenger and haven't had issues with leg room, head room, or arm room at 6'0. Had mine for 3 years and the infotainment never lagged or blacked out. The 10-speed is a bit jerky and confused at times, I do agree there, but in normal or spirited driving, it's smooth and intuitive enough for me. To each their own...I used to have an Infiniti G35 that I absolutely detested, and people thought I was crazy because of the rave reviews it had. At least we can both agree that the Accord is quick and handles well for what it is.

Congratulations on your new seat!

I have a '20 Accord Touring 2.0T and I absolutely love it! I'm 6'1"/170 and I'm plenty comfortable in it. The sound system is lackluster and the fuel tank is on the small side but those are about my only gripes. I totally enjoy driving the car. I have no issues with the transmission. Mine shifts smoothly and doesn't seem to hunt for gears at all. The only other issue I can think of is that about every 2 months or so, my iPhone doesn't connect to Bluetooth and I have to pair it which takes about 3 minutes. But the driving experience is a blast. I honestly look forward to driving it every single day.

I just purchased a 2022 Accord Sport 2.0 yesterday and so far I love it but I'm only 5'5" so I'm comfortable in the car.

Really good video, but is incredible how the experience changes from one person to another, as 6'4 myself, I find the driver seat Really comfortable and spacious, conflagration on your new ride.

I bought a 2020 Honda Accord EXL 2.O. I went with the EXL because of the leather seats and some of the other standard features it provided like blind spot monitor and rear cross traffic alert. I also had read that the 17’ wheels provided a more compliant ride. I went on the make my own “sport”version by fitting it with Eibach lowering springs & front and rear sway bars. I also did some chassis stiffening with Ultra Racing strut, torsion, and power bars. I ran ultra high performance summer tires this season and I must this car is a beast. I did kind of freak out about a week in to my ownership because of seat comfort, but the leather seats became more compliant as the leather softened up. I now have no issue with the seats and in fact took it on a road trip to Florida and the ride comfort was fine. I have not experienced any of the problems that you have experienced with your Accord Sport. My infotainment has NEVER once glitched and blacked out. My transmission shifts in the very beginning of ownership were a bit jerky, but it smoothed out as the transmission “learned” my driving style. I do not find my transmission hunting for gears either. Honestly my Accord has been flawless in the 2 years and 54,000 miles of ownership. Maybe not surprisingly Consumer Reports rated the 2020 model year of the Accord with a 5/5 reliability score. As far as Hyundai/Kia I owned a 2006 Kia Soul from new and the engine suffered catastrophic engine failure at 70k miles. Luckily they DID honor the warranty and put a remanufactured engine in the Soul. I traded that car in within 2 weeks of getting it back. After that experience and all the stories I hear and read about Hyundai Motor Corp. vehicles suffering fires and catastrophic failures of engines and transmissions I could never own another Hyundai product.

Very informative video. It just highlights how different ownership experiences can be, from one person (and one car) to the next. I have 1-1/2 years and 20k miles on my 2.0 Sport and haven't experienced any of the, often discussed, transmission issues. I'm 6'2" and, fortunately, the seat fits me perfectly. Totally agree with the infotainment/stereo comments. Hoping that the solid engineering and reliability will continue with my current Accord. My last one ('00 LX 5spd) is pushing 350k and still hanging in there. Enjoy your N!

I have no issues with the seats in my 2.0T Accord, except I wish they offered cooled seats. And the maps work for me when I use Google maps on Android Auto. The transmission is good, and I'm thankful I didn't get the CVT 1.5T version. The performance is amazing. Overall, I'm satisfied with my 2.0T Accord, even with the stapler style tail lights.

2020 Accord Touring 2.0T is easily the best car I've ever owned. Accelerates effortlessly, the 10 speed is a little jarring for passengers, but it's a performer. If you want performance, reliability, and comfort, it's pretty tough to beat.

I own a 2022 2.0t in sonic grey with 13k miles on it right now and I can say that your review is spot on. I’m 5’10 and the leg room on the driver side is just about right if I was an inch taller I would probably feel the discomfort. The infotainment system definitely needs work but when you get it to work right it works really good I never had the issue with the Maps the only issue that I’ve had is that it will take forever to read maybe once every month or every two months I would have to disconnect/forget device and have to reconnect my device again for it to be able to read it again. The transmission is definitely jerky in low speeds at times, every time I feel it doing that I just upshift and it feels smooth . Overall I love the car, looks and feels great most of the time just wish the stock tires were better . If you have Spotify I would definitely recommend playing around with the equalizer at first I hated the way it sounded but after tuning the sound a little bit it sounds really good

The accord looks great. I have a red 1.5 and it looks absolutely gorgeous. However, the seats are uncomfortable and the driving dynamics/suspension is very unsophisticated. The ride is unnecessarily harsh. It does handle well.

Have you had problems with the DCT? Was yours recalled? What about the exploding seat belt now?..... Seems like the EN is having a lot of problems now.

I just got a 2018 2.0t sport and there is no way I ever get rid of it.The car does everything perfect.Great comfort,handling,quality and of course honda reliability and durability.

We followed the same path with cars. I sold my '21 Honda Accord 2.0 Sport and got the Elantra N with a DCT. I didn't have any issues with the Honda, even the seat was OK but the car felt too big. Too much like my 2015 Chevy Impala- too much a 'family' car even though it was fast. The Elantra just feels special and the seats fit me better. Overall I would say I liked my Honda but I love my Elantra N.

Just purchase a 2022 Accord 2.0T. I wholeheartedly agree with comments regarding the seats and TRANSMISSION

i have a 22 2.0 touring and pretty much have 0 issues with the seating and legroom, but I'm 5'8" so that might be why lol. so far though I'm loving the vehicle and if I decide to keep it long term ima do FBO e85 with the prl p700 turbo

Hey bud no disrespect but how much room you need? I'm 6'4" and 240 lbs and I think there's more room than I need. Drive my Accord from PA to NC on the regular

Now this is called an honest review . Thanks

Accord is a beauty; all im waiting for is Honda to release the Accord Type R🤩. If in the near future they make the Accord AWD; its a wrap for alot of companies

agree with you on the infotainment and stereo in the 2.0T and the seats are ok but everything else about the car is incredible. Ive never really seen an N on the roads but would love to test drive one

Just bought a Honda Accord Sport 2.0T after 3 years of leasing (only 7k miles on it), I have had no issues with the entertainment panel. no black screens or shut downs. The remote start up has work flawlessly for 3 years in 120 degree hot summers! Also the seats, no issues, I am a big guy at 280 lb and it is very comfortable, roomy and lots of space for me. I think you had a Lemon my dude.

Right on the spot. I am getting rid of my 2019 2.0 touring. The drivers seat it’s a pain in the lower back. The transmisión it’s weird. Purchase a 2010 Accord Crosstour with the V6 and Love It. Better seat. Better sound System. Less technology but comfort comes first.

seriously considering trading in my ‘22 veloster N for the accord 2.0T sport or touring, the N was a lot of fun but it has given me countless issues and i’ve babied the car since the start. maybe i’ll check out the elantra N see how it is, thanks for the video man i’ve been doing research on the accord and love hearing multiple opinions

my 2018 honda accord 2.0 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION is a dime piece. wont change it for anything. never had any screen flicker, no lag in my manual transmission and it’s just to look out my home wndow to look at not to mention the interior dash layout is just awe for me ✨ ✨ ✨

Too bad it didn't workout with the Accord, hope you enjoy the N. But for me honestly due to recent events I've been scared away from Hyundai/KIA as a whole.

Comming from a mk7 gti, my 22 accord 2.0 sport has been a dream to own, yeah the transmission can be jerky in lower speeds but I only notice that in sport mode since the car wants to run the rpms in sport making it jerky

I wonder if there was a issue with that particular seat. I have never heard anyone complain about that. Everyone is built different. But a Hyundai. I really question that. Most people who research B4 buying will avoid them. Again everyone is built different. Good luck with the car sounds like you are enjoying it.

I have a 19 accord sport and it’s awesome! I guess some people downgrade and think it’s better. That accord looks dope!

Great review!! I actually wanted an Accord 2.0T but no one had it and when a dealer did get it they marked it up by $5000. I traded in my 2019 Maxima for my Elantra N two months ago. Haven't looked back since. The looks of the Elantra N are very subjective but like you said it grows on you. About that low end torque, have you done the octane learning after you fill up? Max PSI can go from 15 to 20. Enjoy!!!!

Love my 2.0 Touring. Never have service problems. Got 260000 miles on my previous Civic SI and it still runs like a top. Good look getting 100000 on that Hyundai.

Good points. Ima take a LONG test drive with this car before I buy it. I wish I could find a manual

I'm surprised you thought it didn't have much legroom. I'm 6'4"/195 and I am plenty comfortable in mine. I've had it for almost 5 years and 55k miles. It did take me quite a while to get the seat where I needed it because of the trim piece coming up from the console. I like to lean my right leg up against that and no matter where I put the seat the trim seemed to dig into my knee. I finally found a position that was good and haven't moved it much since.

love the way those honda accord's look

Good for you man. I was never a fan of that gen Honda Accord. When they first came out I test drive and test drive but something about them too me was like ehhh so I past on it and have no regrets.

Well good luck. The new Hyundai models have major recalls. Heard a guy's engine blew and they didn't want to fix it because he went too high over the rpms. As for the Elantra , great car no doubt but I personally would be afraid with that transmission.

Great review and sorry the accord didn’t work out. I was kinda looking at one back when I got my Challenger because of the Manual and the cargo and passenger space. Crazy to hear about the seats. You would think that would be a good area. Glad you are happy with the new ride.

I bought a brand new 2016 Dodge charger rt plus, back in 2016, I had a lot of problems with that car. Now I own a 2018 honda Accord exl , 2.0t, I'm a big guy, I have traveled a lot, and I can honestly say that I don't have any problems with my seat, radio or anything, I love my Honda, I would never buy a hyundai, it's like going back to dodge. (Too many problems)

I totally understand the seat comfort issue I had a Honda insight. The seat was absolute torture. No one talks about seat comfort or seat durability. I had a sonata that even though has less than 60 k miles it was leaning to one side. I just traded in a 2020 outback for that same sagging seat issue and the infotainment glitches were horrible as well. Now I have an Acura. Let’s see how this one does

Well done and well explained. As an automotive engineer, I get it. I am considering an Elantra N as well.

Put 60k miles on my 2.0 2021 a lot of trips to Vegas from Cali all the way to Oregon. Im 6ft2 240 an this has been the most comfortable car I’ve ever owned handles amazing an shifts amazing zero issues with it. Only complaint is the passenger front dosent have enough space to be comfortable for long trips if your taller.

I did 3 time road trip from Chicago to LA on my 2.0T 10 speed auto Accord and never had any issue with seats and my back ... 0 issue with 10 speed auto tranny ,absolutely love that gearbox, about legroom up front just shocked me dude,i don't know how toll are you or what kinda seat position you like when driving but definitely it has a tone of room for driver and passenger as well .... Infotainment never gave me any problems ,always worked as a charm. At the end whatever works for you the best dude, For me, Honda over any Hyundai any day ! Congrats on N !

I thought about getting a N. I got the 2.0t Accord 2022 in Sonic Grey instead. It is such a perfect car. Only complaint is the sound system. That is it. To be honest i felt like i would not feel confident in a Hyundai. I did not feel right. That is why i chose the Accord over it. Although i do know that the N is faster then the 2.0t Accord. Not by much though. Difference is very little. Ive seen videos. I have also seen videos about quality control issues with the N engine and as well as exterior issues with the paint being not so great. I am sure others have had no issues. No car is perfect. Just decided to go with the more reliable brand i guess. Still the N is a killer car. Cheers

I love my Accord, it feels like a sport sedan! And the body style is so much nicer than most other sport sedans today. I love the way the seats hold me in too!

The 2023 crv seat is super comfortable. It’s also super spacious

I have a 22 2.0 Touring, same color. I like the car, but not in looove with it… a lot of my issues are the same as yours. I definitely plan on selling when some 23 model cars are released. Question, did you sell or trade in your Accord?

You traded a real car for a shitty Hyundai, you're the only person in the world who does that.

Elantra N is a beast! Does not compare to the accord, the N is a track car for a reason. Coming from an accord owner, and honda fan boy.

The Accord is a family sedan, the Elantra N is a performance vehicle. Two totally different vehicles for specific needs. Better comparison would be a Type-R & Elantra N.

I guess everyone have different experiences with their Honda's. I just bought the 2022 Honda Accord Sport 2T and I love it. So far, I feel my car is very comfortable, spacious, has very little wind noise, I love the heated seats, it rides smoothly, easy to handle and maneuver in heavy traffic, and I have no problems with the infotainment center in my car. However, the gas mileage does suck (22 mileage in the city) but it is no different than the last car I owned. My goal was to purchase a car that had a high reliability score. The Honda Accord never fails in this area and the resale value is also very good. The Hydundai Elantra (not the Elantra N) was the first car I looked at when I decided to buy a new car last year. However, I could not get over how the company treated its customers that reported engine problems (I think it was 2017 cars) in their vehicles. I'm glad the guy in the video shared his experiences so I least will know what could possibly go wrong with my car.

Everyone has their reasons I guess but Hyundai and Kia warranties are absolutely horrible they sell based on warranties and the cars don’t last in comparison to Honda on that note but hey if it’s not for you it’s not for you. I love my accord I have stayed with Honda all my life because of the reliability. Hope your luck is going well with new car.

This was such a great video. Very informative!

I agree with you, I have 2018 Accord Touring and hate the seats. I couldn't make it 2hours in car before I needed to get out. We still have it as u can imagine low miles 25600. I'm getting rid of it.

Update #2. Went on a longer 2 1/2 hour one way drive. Using my inexpensive seat cushion it was a very comfortable drive. Love cruising on scenic, sweeping highways with S curves and ascending and descending sections. This car is fun to drive and has been problem free to date.

From a honda legend to a hyunday?? God bless you brother… not a good decision

Sometimes a car is just not meant for a certain person. I had a 2020 RAV4 and the seats killed my lower back to the point I had to sell it. The guy I sold it to contacted me weeks later and said he and his family love it and have no issues. Some people just aren't the right fit for a seat.

Honda has had rock hard seats forever. It is my biggest complaint about them. Their leather seats are softer, but still not as comfortable as many other vehicles.

Nice video and well stated. But I have a 2018 Touring 2.0 , with all the bells and whistles,I bought new in March 2019 and I love it. Approaching 50000 miles and still on original tires.The battery was replaced during warranty and failed again, so that's a negative. Agree about the sound system, it could be much better. I did have some black out problems but after doing the updates I have had virtually zero problems. During covid I was offered more than I paid for the car but resisted selling or trading it it. I have the dark blue color that Honda did away with and also the 2.0T is gone for the next generation of Accord. I will probably keep it for a long time. Probably the best car I ever owned except for my 1991 Acura Legend. Over 235000 miles and only a brake master cylinder change, never should have sold it.

I was a Honda perdone for over 20 years and finally switched to a Toyota!! Same reason from a Honda noisy ride, jerky transmission, same body style for decades, but they are great cars, but switched to a Toyota RAV4

Should have bought the Touring.

Honda over Hyundai any day

i sold my 2021 honda accord touring because of too many mechanical issues and I bought 2021 Hyundai sonata N line . better quality and better tech, less issues.. I was so disppointed in Honda. and I will not buy another Honda again . hyundai sonata N line is best car Ive ever owned

Honda should be ashamed of themselves, all factual information!!!

As a Korean, I am proud of Korea's HYUNDAI. But I own 19MY Honda Accord 2.0t sport.

I paid cash for my 2.0L Accord and would get rid of it tomorrow, but can't afford to do so. You are spot on about ride quality and the road noise is totally unacceptable. I wear hearing aids and they tend to amplify the road noise and windy window. I only drive this car to town and very short trips because of ride comfort. Fortunately I also own a Ram 1500 which is so very comfortable to drive. When we get through this current vehicle shortage and pricing gets back in line I will trade it.

One thing I have to agree with you about the driver's seat comfort on long trips. I drove my and I soon find out the same way that you do...my body was aching after a long road trips for my Accord 2.0T. and the radio suck like you said. I had a 2020 Nissan Altima SR best zero gravity seat even, I never feel tire on the Altima driver's seat. My experience.

The cockpit is tight in the Accord, I'm 6"2 and I always feel like my knees are tight against the panels, not much wiggle room,

I have an accord touring. I have no seat complaints. I also have TONS of leg room. I will agree with the shitty wireless carplay. My transmission is smooth. The only complaint is flooring it from highway speeds. It's a bit too long to shift down

Weird I find the accords seats very comfortable. Then again I’m only 5’7”

Have a ‘22 Accord Sport 2.0. Seats don’t bother me, but with you 100% on infotainment and especially transmission. Jerky in low gears and downshifting, wireless CarPlay connection issues, black screen at times, wireless charging pad hit or miss. But thing is a beast, and I love the looks

Should’ve kept it especially after the 23 accord. They removed the electronic gear selection button and 2.0 turbo. Only thing that looks appealing is the rear headlights across the rear end of car.

I pretty much like my Honda 2.0 exl with some caveat's. The hood is so light it flutters a lot. The speakers in the "premium" sound system are garbage. I replaced them all. You cannot access the coolant reservoir because it's behind the front bumper. Would have preferred a regular shift lever instead of the piano keys. With the proliferation of monster SUV's their are not much cars out there to match the Accord unfortunately.

You should have opted for the touring trim model, I have the same year 2.0t but the touring trim and my seats are great. I’m also a bigger guy, 6’4” 220.

I totally agree with you, I had an 05 Camry v6 and I didn't really understand how good I had it untill I downgrade to a civic, and let me tell you, the seat was hard in the civic, there was no lumbar support, the Cars performance was weak.... I had the civic even less than you had the accord and I'm a jobless 28 year old... Lol , comfort plus performance is indeed number one, I actually switched to a 2005 accord V6 2 door after the civic, Its still not as comfortable as that Camry but miles ahead of the civic, also it's faster than the Camry.

I have a 2012 Honda Accord and the seats are unbearable. I am 6 foot 5 290 pounds and my shoulder blade ripped a hole into the seat... There's a metal bar there. I've heard the newest Honda haven't gotten better. I will be getting the Subaru legacy next. I heard the comfort is stellar

I have a 2021 Accord Sport 2.0t and will probably keep it for a while. The next gen accord is just too plain, less HP and no 2.0 engine. Good luck with the N, do inform us when the time comes to trade in a Hyundai, this is where its going to hurt.

Your video was very informative. I was super close to getting a hyundai elantra n however I found the perfect accord 2.0t for less with a 100,000 mile warranty. I test drove the elantra and it was just missing some creature comforts that the accord has. Badass car either way! Thank you for helping me decide.

Whatever dude, drive your hyundia.

I thought I was the only one with the jerky trans and shudder when going at low speeds or when letting go of the pedal. Over some time I’ve learned to drive the car. Let the car warm up to operating temps, in slow & stop/go traffic use economy mode and just cruise. You have to use the brake pedal in this car or control the downshifting yourself. Using the brake pedal tells the computer to downshift depending on how hard you’re braking so avoid hard braking or changing how hard you brake all of a sudden . Keep a safe distance when driving, persistent pressure on your braking & let the computer do its thing.

I love my 2.0t 16k miles on it not a single issue, planning on doing a FBO which will make it faster than that N and wont really worry about a blown engine 😮‍💨

As a Honda/Acura dude, N Elantra is goated! Must respect for those cars, Hyundai has been stepping the the game the past few years. I wish they bring back the genesis coupe!

Congrats on the N! I just got one a couple of weeks ago and love it. Watch out for oil changes at the dealer, I've heard of dealers putting the wrong oil in the ENs. I'm probably just going to do all my own oil changes

It would help to know how tall you are to apply the seat comfort information “accord”ingly

Lol. Stop playing. You jumped on the market hype. Quick buck… 4 months is nowhere close to enough time to enjoy a car. The 2.0 Sport is awesome! I’m 6ft 240 btw. Plenty of leg room, BUT I will admit the width is narrow (at least compared to my previous 2011 E350 Sport).

Hmmm, I am 6.1 and 200 lbs. Ran a 2022 Accord from LIT airport to Orlando, Orlando to Jax and then back to LIT. Never noticed the seat to be an issue for me. Of course YMMV.

After those 60s-Cadillac-home-theater-integrated-cupholder-reclining seats :):) from Dodge Charger, everything will be too firm and too small. 2021 Honda Accord has one of the best seats on the whole market :)

That's the problem with buying the Sport version.

Both cars are nice and congrats on the new Hyundai but hate to say Honda would treat you much better come warranty claims

I've had my 2018 1.5T & haven't found a single issue with the car, indeed it is extremely spacious, seats are super comfortable as I drive an hour daily just to go to work.

My guess is you had a faulty seat. I have 23K miles on my 2019 2.0T 6MT (bought new in June 2019) and I have never once had a feeling of being in an uncomfortable seat.

I chose the 2021 Honda Accord Touring 2.0T over the Elantra N. IMO It's a better quailty vehicle. The Koreans have had lots of problems with their engines still to this day. Not to mention they have been pretty easy to steal lately. Also, whenever I see a Hyundai or KIA on the road, I automatically think the owners have poor credit ratings. Perhaps that's not a fair assessment, but that's what comes to my mind when I see them.

Great review I was considering this car but hadn't sat in it. I can write it off now. I really like the smaller Mazda 3 seats but it just doesn't look very tough

My biggest fear when buying a car is not being able to be comfortable in the seat. My 2005 Camry had the most comfortable seats I've ever felt in my life and I hope to duplicate that in a new car. You really can't tell until you spend a few hours driving a car what the seats will do to your back.

How tall are you? I am 6.2 . Am I too high for the Accord ?

Good video! Best of luck with the N! Do you know if the Touring 2.0 Trim level are the same seats as the Sport 2.0. I wonder if that would have made a difference.

Elantra? Isn't that the Civic competitor? That seriously has more room than the accord?

Something wrong with that seat mine is very comfortabke we travel from east TN to Tulsa, OK twice a year every year since 2018 we switched drivers ever once in a while none of us had problems with the screen ever and seats were comfortable we used Android usb connected never have I ever had any of your problems you should have just had it checked out at your dealer such a simple fix my transmission is smooth as silk .. you got a bad apple out of the barrel

I'm with you bro. After 6 Accords(last one being a 2016 EX-L V6). It was fast. But it was loud inside, audio system was absolute junk. And still is). Honda quality has gone downhill over the years. I traded it for a 2022 Sonata SEL Plus and have not looked back. It's way ahead in many categories. It's super quiet inside(has tons of insulation compared to Honda. which uses crappy ANC to attempt to make it quiet) has 12 speaker Bose, Nav. panoramic sunroof, HDA(Level 2 autonomous driving),super comfortable seats and a great warranty. May not last as long, but I sure love it more than any Accord I've ever had! Gotta enjoy what you drive every day!
