I am a firm believer that when humanity slips the surly bonds of Earth and heads into the stars, and our accomplishments are cataloged, the Honda Accord will fall somewhere between "electric refrigeration" and "the flu vaccine." I've owned two generations of Accords and reviewed several others, and every single one I've ever sat in is the platonic ideal of a mid-size car for its era. So when I was offered a 2025 Honda Accord to drive, I accepted without hesitation. A week with one of my favorite cars? Yeah, sounds good!
