Satellite Navigation. Honda's Satellite Navigation System can guide you – turn by turn – to virtually anywhere in Australia. Available on the Accord Euro Luxury Navigation model, this fully integrated system continually calculates your location and the shortest, fastest route to your destination. Clear verbal instructions and on-screen information guide you every step of the way.
Dual-zone climate control. The driver and front passenger can each set their preferred ambient temperature levels with dual zone automatic climate control. Rear seat vents feed the centre console storage box to enable drinks to be cooled or warmed.
Cruise Control. The sporty three spoke steering wheel holds a complete suite of controls - including audio and cruise control so you can keep your eyes on the road, rather than the speedo.
Reverse Camera. When "Reverse" is engaged on Euro Luxury Navigation, the rear-view camera, located discreetly above the rear licence plate, provides a view of the area directly behind the car 138 ° wide and 91° vertically.
Generous boot and cabin storage space. The new Accord Euro features a roomier boot, with 467 litres of cargo capacity, and plenty of cabin storage in easy-to-reach locations.
Sharp exterior styling. First impressions matter...and the first thing you'll notice about the Accord Euro is its sharp-edged design. Complementing its high-performance character, the distinctive shield like grille also serves to optimise engine air intake. The muscular wheel arches accentuate Accord Euro's high-strength alloys. And the sharp, sleek body design ensures that it splits the wind with peak efficiency and grace.
Aerodynamic efficiency. Reducing wind noise and improving fuel economy were key engineering goals of the all-new Accord Euro. Its aerodynamic efficiency is among the best in its class.
Balanced weighting. The Accord Euro's highly balanced weight distribution enables it to react quickly to driver input. You'll feel it working its magic through turns and firming up through braking.
Dual Exhausts. Dual exhausts not only strengthen the Accord Euro's racing profile, they maximise the engine's horsepower by increasing its 'breathing' capacity.
Rain-sensing Wipers. For enhanced safety and convenience, the Accord Euro Luxury and Luxury Navigation automatically senses water on the windshield and activates the wipers at just the right speed.
Electric Sunroof. Perfect for sunny days or balmy evenings, an electric glass sunroof with tilt or slide functions is standard on the Accord Euro Luxury and Luxury Navigation models.
HID xenon lights. HID xenon low-beam headlights (standard on Luxury and Luxury Navigation models) contribute to superior night-time visibility.
Wider, lower stance. The all-new Euro has a wider track and a lower centre of gravity. This sports profile not only enhances the Euro’s driving agility, it smoothes the ride for everyone inside.
A car you can feel good about. The Accord Euro is easy on the environment and your petrol budget. Through innovative engine technology, streamlined aerodynamics and a high percentage of light but very strong materials, the new Accord Euro is more fuel efficient than ever before. Emissions have also been lowered to meet stringent Euro 4 standards.
Drive Every Drop. Among 2.4 litre performance sedans, the Accord Euro stands out for delivering superior fuel efficiency without sacrificing acceleration. The 2.4 litre i-VTEC engine uses just 8.9 litres per /100 km.¹
¹ The fuel consumption figure is based on ADR81/02 combined test results. You may experience different results depending on driving conditions and the condition of the vehicle.
A commitment to minimising waste. Honda is committed to minimising waste and maximising the use of recycled materials in all its manufacturing.
Environmentally sensitive manufacturing. At, Honda, we strive "to be a company that society wants to exist". From green manufacturing to alternative fuel technologies, we have long been a leader in developing and promoting environmentally sound practices and products. We are committed to minimising waste and maximising the use of recycled materials in all our manufacturing.
Environmentally sensitive. Honda's all-new second-generation has strong environmental credentials in the form of a Euro 4-emissions compliant engine and CO2 emissions of 212 g/km manual transmission and 211 g/km for the automatic.
What if we had our own solar cell production company? In recent times, Honda has branched out into mass solar cell production. Honda's unique C.I.G.S solar cell produces the highest level of conversion efficiency in the thin film category and only requires half the energy to manufacture, so it's environmentally friendly throughout its entire life. Why does a vehicle company produce solar cells? Purely so we know that we are doing everything possible to help prevent global warming.
Advanced safety isn't just an option. The Accord Euro affirms Honda's commitment to safety leadership with an array of the latest active(accident avoidance) and passive (crash safety performance) safety technologies. The Accord Euro’s impact absorbing body structure, front, side and curtain airbags... and its Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA) system with traction control, are just a few of the standard safety features designed to ensure maximum passenger and pedestrian safety.
Front, side and full-length curtain airbags. Not only does the Accord Euro provide the protection of front, side and curtain airbags, its front airbags provide extra protection to passenger and driver. Honda's sophisticated dual-stage, dual-threshold system optimises the airbag deployment to match the speed and severity of a crash. It also helps to minimise injuries that can sometimes be caused by airbags themselves.
A.C.E. ™ — Honda's revolutionary energy absorbing technology. Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure is designed to deliver significantly enhanced occupant protection in a variety of real-world crash conditions. ACE absorbs and actively channels crash energy around and away from the passenger compartment. It can also help minimise the potential for under-ride or over-ride situations during impacts with a significantly larger or smaller vehicle.
Active Head Restraints. In a rear collision, active head restraints in both front seats move forward and up. This equalises the forces acting on the head, neck and spine, helping to prevent injury.
GCON. Developed at Honda's real World car-to-car test facility, G-force Control protection exceeds governmental regulations and sets its own safety standard.
High Tensile Steel. Passengers are protected by the Euro's strong unit body structure. Around 50%, including the passenger cell frame and front and rear side members, is manufactured from high tensile steel, providing greater strength without a weight penalty. Ultra high tensile steel makes up 42% of the total.
Stability Control. Honda's Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system and power steering are standard features of every Accord Euro. Plus, Honda complements these key safety features with an innovative "motion adaptive" system to prevent over- or under-steering.
Eight parking sensors - to get you into and out of a tight spot. With eight parking sensors, the Accord Euro Luxury and Luxury Navigation alerts you to danger when you're closer than you’d like to be. The Multi Information Display even indicates the position of the obstacle.
Performance & Handling. You'll feel it immediately. A wider track... lowered centre of gravity... greater body rigidity... and a powerful 2.4L i-VTEC engine. The next generation Accord Euro. Dynamic performance and styling coupled with generous interior space has never looked or felt better.
2.4L i-VTEC engine. Powerful, yet still delivering class-leading fuel economy and emissions, Euro's 2.4 litre i-VTEC engine elevates it into the category of Europe's finest mid-sized sedans.
Racing-inspired Paddle-shift. The five-speed automatic Euro features optional paddle shifting in "Drive" mode. The paddles are conveniently mounted on the back of the leather-trimmed steering wheel.
Peak power. More powerful than its predecessor, the 2.4 litre i-VTEC engine delivers a maximum output of 148kW and a maximum torque of 234Nm (manual) or 230Nm (automatic).
Vehicle Stability Assist and Motion Adaptive EPS. In slippery conditions, it's natural for drivers to react quickly and intuitively. Too often, this can lead to over-steering or under-steering and a subsequent loss of driver control.
Motion Adaptive EPS is an innovative feature of the Euro that works in combination with the Euro's Vehicle Stability Assist system. It smoothes out the steering in potentially dangerous situations, such as tight cornering or short braking, helping the driver steer in the correct direction and maintain full control.
All-new Suspension. The all-new front double wishbone and rear multi-link suspension assure a smooth ride on rough Australian roads.
Wider, lower and longer. Significantly wider, slightly lower and longer, the Accord Euro delivers agility and high speed stability so you’ll never be in doubt that it is first and foremost a true driver’s car.
High-rigidity body. Greater body rigidity means that the Euro is even more responsive when cornering – you can really feel it gripping the road.
Sharp, accurate steering. Experience the precision of Euro in its direct, yet effortless electronic power steering control.
Standard 17 & 18" Alloys. Euro's alloy wheels make its performance and braking more responsive, as well as enhance its sports profile. Standard specifications include 17" (Euro) and 18" (Euro Luxury) alloys.
Crisp shifting and brisk acceleration. With either a 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission, the Euro shifts easily from gear to gear. The powertrain harmony delivers the kind of acceleration that defines performance sedan.
Grade Logic and Shift Hold Control. When in automatic mode, the automatic transmission incorporates an advanced Grade Logic Control System and Shift Hold Control, both of which work to reduce gear 'hunting' and unnecessary changes.
Drive-By-Wire. The drive-by-wire throttle system replaces the conventional throttle cable with an all-electronic system, enabling better communication with the transmission for a smoother drive.
The Accord Euro has a secure, confident stance on the road. The ride is compliant and comfortable on all surfaces, while the brakes offer much better pedal feel and power than those on the previous model.
The driver's seat itself is a luxurious touring-style seat, which is very comfortable and supportive on a long drive.
The Euro is now as refined as many luxury cars.
