Honda Accord V6 Driven

For a start this one has more displacement than the Audi, produces slightly more power but costs only about half as much. It might be from a Japanese car manufacturer but it was born with US in mind, so it’s large enough to fit five adults and their luggage. It probably is a good bargain high performance car you can buy in India and I was to drive it first before any car magazine could set their foot in the company.

Default Honda Accord V6 Driven

It’s been a week of driving six cylinder cars like the Audi A4 3.2FSI and the BMW 325i. The Audi A4 was pretty much top on the list of my favourite cars and needless to say I had a good time driving it on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. Here is a teaser.


I was literally in love with this car and returning it was among the hardest things I did recently. The only consolation I had was the Accord 3.5L V6 waiting at Delhi to be ripped on the Noida expressway, a day later.

The previous generation Accord V6 was a much revered car as far as the enthusiasts were concerned. The 3.0L V6 with 221bhp was great on power but had earned a reputation for being a gas guzzler. With the new Accord, Honda has made use of technology such as cylinder cut-out (seen in some V8s like the 300C-now ditched?) to help the Accord save some precious fuel.

  1. What I love about honda is their incredible handling characteristics. The ride is soft, but you can still feel the imperfections of the road surface. The only problem with these cars from Honda are that they are a little expensive to maintain.
