The signature chrome wing front grille makes a bold statement over the main lower air intake. This front fascia will be available with nine-lamp full-LED headlights and LED foglights.<\/p>\n<p>The 2018 Honda Accord will have a longer wheel base and more width while dropping just over half an inch in height. The new look will be bold and dramatic, while offering more passenger volume and cargo space in the trunk. The amount of this increase may vary depending on the trim level.<\/p>\n<div class=\"one_third\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-taillight_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-573\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-taillight_o.jpg\" alt=\"Taillight and Accord badging on the 2018 Honda Accord\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_third\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-interior_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-571\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-interior_o.jpg\" alt=\"white sporty front seats in the 2018 Honda Accord\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_third_last\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-front_o.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-570\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dealerfireblog.com\/battisonhonda\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/703\/2017\/07\/battison-2018-Honda-Accord-Touring-front_o.jpg\" alt=\"front view of a white 2018 Honda Accord Touring\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<h3>New Chassis, Improved Handling<\/h3>\n<p>Each model of the new 2018 Honda Accord will also feature a lighter and more rigid body structure.
