TrueDelta Reviews the Available Features of the 2012 Honda Accord

2012 Honda Accord Available Features: Pros
YearComment
2013 Coupes tend to suffer from limited rearward visibility, and the new Honda Accord Coupe is no exception. More and more cars (but not yet the Genesis Coupe) offer blind spot monitors. For the redesigned 2013 Accord, Honda developed an alternative: a camera that displays the view rearward along the right side of the car. Unlike most camera-based monitors, this one operates at any speed. I found this feature especially helpful driving down a narrow road that leads to my house. In other cars I'm always worried about scraping a wheel or two on the curb (or the entire side of the car on a stone wall in front of one house). In the Accord I could easily check the distance to the curb and wall as I drove. This feature also helps when changing lanes on the highway. The Accord Coupe EX-L also comes with lane departure warning and forward collision alert. While the former is, in my experience, of limited value, the latter can provide a helpful warning when traffic suddenly stops ahead of you. Neither feature is offered on the Genesis Coupe. On the other hand, the Genesis Coupe has xenon headlamps, which aren't offered on the Accord Coupe. A final notable feature shouldn't be so notable. The Genesis Coupe should offer a power recline for its drivers seat, or at least a manual adjuster that's continually adjustable rather than ratcheting in steps. It does not. But the Accord has a power recliner, so you can fine tune the angle. see full Honda Accord review
