The Honda Accord Euro 

 

25 

INTERIOR 

 

Greater cabin space as a result of increased body width 

 

Interface Dial provides quick, intuitive access to navigation, audio, climate control and other 
features 

 

Dual-zone automatic climate control system 

 

Audio system with 10 speakers 

 

Satellite navigation system available 

 

Rear-view parking camera 

 

There's an air of quality throughout the interior of the Accord Euro, with soft tactile surfaces, carefully 

selected trim materials and plush, supportive seating offering excellent comfort. Elegant luxury and clean, 

efficient design create an environment in tune with the car's clearly defined sporting character. And an air 

of refinement has been achieved through the careful application of noise absorbing materials in 

combination with a highly rigid body, a floating rear subframe and variable rate damping.  

 

Material quality, fit and finish have received exacting attention; plastics have been chosen for their quality 

and feel and production techniques introduced to ensure the highest standards of finish. This can be seen 
with the use of slush moulding for the fascia, which eliminates mating lines and creates a pleasant texture. 

The soft-touch switchgear is engineered for a positive, satisfying feel. 

 

Wider, more spacious cabin 

The Accord Euro is now wider by 80 mm and that translates directly into a roomier, airier cabin which 

promotes a greater sense of well-being and comfort; shoulder width is now 65 mm greater, for example. 

 

While the Accord Euro’s overall height has been reduced (the Sedan by 5 mm), at the same time the cabin 

floor has been lowered by 10 mm, to give a sportier driving position.
