Simply deciding that you want to get a 2014 Honda Accord is a major decision, but it is not the last one you will have to make before making your final choice. There are dozens of small choices you can make when it comes to your Accord.
Each trim level has different specs, so selecting the right one of these will be one of the most important choices. After you do that, you can decide which packages or optional features to add.
Trim Levels and Models
Before being able to choose the right 2014 Honda Accord for you, you will first need to understand the differences between the trims and models. There are two main choices for the 2014 Accord: sedan and coupe. If you get the sedan, you can choose from six trims: LX, Sport, EX, EX-L, EX-L V-6, and Touring. The trim choices with the coupe are: LX-S, EX, EX-L, and EX-L V-6.
Engine
Although most of the trim levels will come with a specific engine, some are available with different options. For the sedan, the four-cylinder engine can be with the first five trim levels, while the 3.5-liter V-6 engine comes standard with the last two but is also an option for the EX-L. All of the trim levels for the coupe can come with the four-cylinder engine, but you can get the V-6 with the EX-L or EX-L V-6.
Features
In terms of features, you will notice that as you increase the trim level for the 2014 Honda Accord, you will get more standard ones. Although all models have features such as dual-zone climate control and a rearview camera, if you opt for one of the top three trims, the rearview camera will even have multiple angles. Other features that get added as you go up trim levels include the Navigation System linked to satellite, fog lights, a one-touch power moonroof, and Honda LaneWatch. To pick the right Accord for you, you will need to consider which features you would like and whether you are willing to pay extra for them.
Seats
You should also consider what type of seats you want. The lower three trim levels of the sedan come with standard cloth trim, but if you opt for the EX-L, EX-L V-6, or Touring, you will get leather seats standard. Opting for a model other than the LX will also give you a 10-way adjustable driver’s seat.
Fuel Efficiency
A final thing to consider is what type of gas mileage you are looking for out of your Accord. Although all transmission options give good fuel efficiency, you will get the best numbers from the continuously variable transmission, then the six-speed manual, and then the six-speed automatic.
