• Powertrain: You can choose between a 192-horsepower turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder and a more powerful 2.0-litre turbo-four with 252 hp. The smaller engine is paired with a CVT and is the more efficient choice, while the larger engine is more engaging and comes with a 10-speed automatic.

Which 2021 Honda Accord trim should I buy?

The 2021 Honda Accord is offered in 6 trim levels: SE, Sport, EX-L, Touring, Sport 2.0, and Touring 2.0.

Here's the short version:

• SE: This is the best-value starting point if you want the Accord’s core strengths without paying for extras you may not need. It brings heated front seats, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and the full safety suite, making it a smart pick for practical shoppers.
• Sport: This trim adds a power moonroof, a wireless phone charger, a 10-speaker premium audio system, a heated steering wheel, and paddle shifters. It suits you if you want a more upscale feel and more convenience features.
• EX-L: This is the comfort-focused choice, adding leather upholstery, heated outboard rear seats, and second-row ventilation. It’s a strong option if rear-seat comfort matters to you.
• Touring: This is the most feature-rich 1.5-litre model, adding ventilated front seats, 19-inch wheels, navigation, rain-sensing wipers, and a head-up display. Choose it if you want the most complete Accord experience without stepping up to the larger engine.
• Sport 2.0: This is the pick for drivers who want the more powerful 2.0-litre turbo-four and a more engaging drive. It makes the Accord feel quicker and more rewarding, though it costs more and uses more fuel.
• Touring 2.0: This is the top-spec choice if you want the strongest performance plus the Touring equipment list. It’s the most expensive version, but it delivers the fullest mix of power and features.

Honda Sensing is standard across the lineup, so you do not need to move up trims for the core safety package.

What is the 2021 Honda Accord's resale value?

The current average of $25,158 CAD sits slightly below last year's $27,467 CAD.

That softer pricing can help you as a buyer today, but it also means a future seller may face a more competitive resale environment if prices continue to ease. The current market suggests the Accord is still in demand, but not at the same price level it held a year ago. If you buy well and keep the car in strong condition, the model’s broad appeal should help support resale interest later on.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.6/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

• Price trend: Prices have softened 8.41% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.6/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Honda refined the Accord’s features list and made safety a priority for this model year.

The bottom line: The 2021 is the better choice if you want the more refined, safety-focused version with strong market support and a broad trim range.
