2018 Honda Accord Sedan vs 2018 Honda Civic Sedan<\/h2>\n

For the past couple of years, the Honda Civic has been undergoing a massive transformation from its 9th<\/sup> generation to its 10th<\/sup>. This year, our other iconic car started its own 10th<\/sup>-generation transition, and we couldn\u2019t be more pleased with all of the updates and enhancements that both vehicles have undergone. We know that it can sometimes be difficult to decide which vehicle is best for you, even if you\u2019ve narrowed it down to getting a Honda. So, we thought we\u2019d make things a little bit easier for you, by showing you some of the similarities and differences between the 2018 Honda Accord<\/a> Sedan & 2018 Honda Civic<\/a> Sedan.<\/p>\n

The table above takes a look at a few of the key differences in specifications between the two sedans. As you can tell, they\u2019re quite comparable to one another. The Accord belongs to a slightly larger segment, as it is a midsize sedan whereas the Civic is a compact sedan, which explains why it\u2019s heavier and offers a bit more trunk space. However, a heavier curb weight means it needs more power to do the same things as a lighter vehicle.<\/p>\n

In other words, the 34 horsepower that the Civic gives up to the Accord isn\u2019t quite as drastic when you take the weights of the vehicles into consideration. Upgrade the Civic to its more powerful engine, and that advantage nearly disappears. But, back to the engines in this comparison, fuel efficiency is almost a horse a piece. If you know that you\u2019ll be doing more driving in the city, perhaps the Accord would make a better choice. But the 2-mpg difference isn\u2019t going to offer a huge advantage one way or the other.<\/p>\n
