2007 Honda Accord Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Expert review
Promising reliability and refinement, efficiency and enjoyment, and safety and sophistication, the 2007 Honda Accord remains one of the best midsize cars you can buy.
As faithfully as the sun rises and sets, Honda redesigns the popular Accord every five years. If you’re good with math, that means 2007 is the final year for the current version of the car. But that doesn’t mean you should skip it in favour of newer designs from competitors like Ford, Nissan, and Toyota.
Continuing in two-door coupe and four-door sedan body styles, the 2007 Honda Accord is offered in DX-G (sedan only), SE (Special Edition), EX, EX-L, and Hybrid trim levels. Most Accords have a four-cylinder engine, some have a V6 engine, and a few have a gas-electric hybrid powertrain.
As far as changes to the 2007 Accord go, the V6 engine is now offered with Special Edition trim. Otherwise, the car is the same as it was in 2006.

Look & feel
Honda took a dramatic turn with the Accord’s last redesign, for the 2003 model year. An update for 2006 added a completely restyled, and more conventional, rear-end design. To many eyes, the changes were for the better, and the 2007 Accord remains an appealing midsize car despite its age.
Climb aboard, and you’ll face a neatly organized dashboard. Simple white-on-black instrumentation is a model of clarity, the radio controls include large buttons and knobs, and the climate controls are arrayed in a logical horizontal row. Versions with navigation have a good-size display screen.
Furthermore, though the hard plastic that is common in the midsize car segment is on clear display, the Accord exudes quality and refinement for the class.
Performance
Most 2007 Honda Accord models have a 166-horsepower, 2.4-litre i-VTEC four-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. A five-speed manual gearbox is also available, and all drivetrains are front-wheel drive (FWD) regardless of trim. This engine provides decent acceleration and sewing-machine smoothness, and if you know how to row your own gears, the manual transmission is a true delight.
For greater power and acceleration, a 244-hp 3.0-litre VTEC V6 engine is available on the SE V6 and EX V6 grades. Like the four-cylinder, it also comes with a five-speed automatic, though a six-speed manual is available on select versions of the Accord. Creamy, effortless power is the V6 engine’s hallmark, but it comes at a cost in terms of price and efficiency.
Choose the Accord Hybrid, and you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds. It uses a modified version of the V6 that employs cylinder-deactivation technology, and at stoplights, the engine shuts off to conserve gas. The Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid technology boosts power output to specs of 253 hp, making the Hybrid the most powerful version of the Accord. It’s also the thriftiest with fuel. But it comes fully loaded with a commensurate price tag.
No matter which Accord you choose, the front and rear double-wishbone suspension design delivers an expertly tuned balance between ride comfort and driving enjoyment. Not as outright fun to fling about as some competitors, the Accord’s silky dynamic refinement is worth the trade-off. It sounds, feels, and drives like a more expensive vehicle.
However, drum rear brakes are standard with the sedan’s DX-G trim, making the case for an upgrade to SE trim at a minimum.
Form & function
One of the roomiest cars in its class, the 2007 Honda Accord seats five people, though four will be more comfortable, especially given the Accord coupe’s rear seats, which are tighter on headroom and legroom.
Standard equipment includes air conditioning, power windows and door locks, remote keyless entry, variable intermittent wipers, and a CD player. Upgrades, depending on the trim level, can include leather seats, heated front seats, 16- and 17-inch alloy wheels, eight-way power adjustment for the driver’s seat, a power sunroof, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
Honda provides plenty of storage space within the Accord’s cabin, and the huge covered bin forward of the transmission is especially helpful. Sedans hold more luggage in the trunk, which measures 396 litres. The coupe’s trunk is 371 litres. Hybrids can hold only 317 litres due to the car’s battery pack.
Technology
Every 2007 Accord has a CD player, and a CD changer is available. For all of the advanced infotainment goodies, though, you’ll need to get the Accord EX-L, which has a premium sound system and an available DVD-based navigation system with voice-recognition technology and a good-sized display screen.
However, unlike Honda’s luxury brand, Acura, the Accord does not offer a wireless Bluetooth cell phone connection for hands-free calling capability.
Safety
In terms of safety equipment, every 2007 Honda Accord includes six airbags. They include dual frontal-impact, front and rear side airbags, and side curtain airbags. Stability control and traction control are also available, but only with the V6 engine.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), the Accord sedan gets a "Good" rating for moderate-overlap frontal impact and side-impact collision protection. However, the head restraints and seats do a "Poor" job of protecting occupants. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gives the Accord sedan an overall crash-test rating of five stars.
Cost-effectiveness
Prices for the 2007 Honda Accord sedan range from $24,800 for the DX-G sedan with the manual transmission to $40,590 for the Accord Hybrid equipped with navigation. That’s a little more on the top end than competition like the Toyota Camry or Nissan Altima, but with its track record for reliability and used car resale value, an Accord is worth the extra expense.
Within the Accord lineup, though, which is the best bet? The Hybrid offers a compelling blend of power and fuel economy (8.2 litres per 100 kilometres in the city, 6.1 on the highway), but it commands a premium while only coming with Honda Accord EX-L trim and suffering a loss of trunk space.
Save money and get the V6 for its impressive performance, and you’ll consume 11.5 L/100 km city and 7.5 on the highway, compared to the four-cylinder’s 9.7 city/6.3 hwy.
Still, the standard four-cylinder engine costs thousands less when paired with the popular automatic transmission. It might not be quite as fast as the V6 or Hybrid, but from a new car cost-effectiveness standpoint, it can’t be beaten.

What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2007 Honda Accord express high satisfaction due to its reliability, fuel economy, and performance. They particularly appreciate its smooth handling, comfortable interior, and impressive gas mileage. However, some reviewers noted that the audio system could be better and mentioned issues with the lack of power compared to expectations for a family car."
I believe that the car was in great shape and even ran smooth, the was a dent on the back right about the back tire.
April 16, 2025Best car..it does everything well and bc its a manual with 244 HP, driving can get a little spirited too! The VTEC is awesome, No complaints!! Fill ups at the gas station also don't hurt too bad in this economy!
May 12, 2025I absolutely love my car. Acceleration is off the chart for a mid-size with the V6 and manual 6-speed. It runs very strong while cruising easily holding it's speed on most hills. Car feels solid with no squeaks, grunts, clunks or other odd noises. Fuel mileage isn't as good as the 4 cylinder Accord but it's definately worth having the V6 if you want that extra power for passing/merging. Styling is great with little compromise inside and out. Most controls are within reach without having to lean forward (I'm 6' tall and have the seat all the way back).

August 7, 2009just shy of 94,000 miles, our one owner accord is still chugging along. car looks great for a 2007, and the paint quality is still that of a newer vehicle. the vehicle has slim lines, leaving minimal blind spots and an easy driving experience. the power drivers seat with lumbar support gives the proper about of knee and back support making for a comfortable commuter car. aside from regular maintenance, the car has been in the shop for a few unusual items, (master window switch, v-tech actuator, washer fluid motor) which didn't come at a cheap cost, and almost a little higher than most honda owners would probably expect. for a four cylinder, the car has good acceleration, tight handling, and a hefty breaking system, all making for an enjoyable driving experience with piece of mind.
May 19, 2015Owned this car for 8 years and when I sold it still rode like the day I purchased it. never had any issues with it , just put gas in it, changed the oil and filters regularly and kept it clean
April 21, 2015Most impressive is the fact that this vehicle has a lot of pep. The gas mileage is pretty good for a six cylinder and I especially like the heated seats in the winter. Handling is good and I have not had to do anything to it since I've had it. It is an extremely reliable vehicle. I previously had a mazda and the build quality of the Honda is solid and not flimsy. It has a sleek look and this car holds its value with all that's included.
April 4, 2015Best Car ever! Great on gas and looks great. Runs great and is very comfortable for long trips. Never had any problems with the Honda Accord. Best Car on the market I must say. I give this vehicle an A!
April 23, 2012Beautiful car with excellent acceleration, handling, and braking. Gas mileage for combined city and highway has been 26+ mpg. Highway mileage has been 31+ mpg. Honda V-tec engine provides plenty of get up and go. A fun car to drive!
April 20, 2011This car is Awesome! 170 hp 5 spd manual 4 cylinder. It's a dream to drive, very smooth, and comfortable. Has great power for a big car with a 4 cylinder engine. Very roomy, with lots of creature comforts. Power everything, including a moonroof, driver's seat level adjustment, power windows, mirrors, etc.
