Happy Birthday Accord - 40 Years of Reputation



1976. The bicentennial birthday of America, NASA lands the Viking rover on mars, Fidel Castro settles in as the president of Cuba, and two guys named Steve (Jobs and Wozniak) made a new computer company you might have heard about. Meanwhile, Honda was hard at work to spit out their newest fun, fuel-efficient, 3-door hatchback - The Accord.

The 1976 Debut Accord 

Over 40 years, Accord has consistently set the benchmark for the U.S. auto industry, earning the trust of more American car buyers than any other car during that period. A record 30 times Accord was named to the Car and Driver 10 Best list during its tenure*. It’s also been restyled quite a bit since it's inception.

The 2017 Debut Accord


Accord has earned a reputation of class-leading reliability and durability, outstanding fuel efficiency, low emissions, and top-class safety performance through continuous improvement and innovation.
According to IHS Automotive data, Accord has been the top retail-selling car in America for the past three years**. It sounds like the most appropriate way to celebrate this “big 40” birthday is to stop in and drive one. How else can it earn your trust? Pick one you like from our inventory and contact a sales rep to schedule a test drive!
