AYO TECHNOLOGY

The Value of Honda Engineering
We take pride in building cars that retain their value, and no vehicle in our fleet has value in its DNA quite like the Accord. It's been our hallmark since 1976, and the 2013 Accord is our finest effort yet.
A New Standard for What Comes Standard
All 2013 Accords are loaded with a wide range of impressive standard features. Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®[1] calling, the USB Audio Interface[2] and the rearview camera make the drive that much more enjoyable, and the side curtain airbag with rollover sensor module helps give you peace of mind on the road.
 
 
 
 

The 2013 Accord is packed with technology, and the i-MID screen is command central for much of it. The 8" color screen displays all kinds of useful information in a simple, intuitive fashion. It won't be long before you'll wonder how you ever drove without i-MID.
Everything in One Place
 
The i-MID interfaces with so many of the Accord's systems and communicates it all on one screen. See everything from your current mpg to what's on the radio to incoming text messages[1]. And if you opt for the available navigation system[2], i-MID will show you the way.
A Musical Genius
 
In addition to displaying AM/FM and CD info, i-MID communicates with your iPhone®[3], the USB Audio Interface[4] and the available internal hard drive that has 16GB of audio memory[5]. So you can play music stored locally, on a flash drive, or streaming from Pandora®[6].
 

The Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System[2] calculates directions for you at the touch of a button, and will give you turn-by-turn directions on how to get there.
 
 
 
Make It Your Own
 
Customize your driving experience with i-MID. Adjust your display settings or automatic functions like power windows and locks. You can even upload a digital photo and create your own wallpaper on your i-MID screen.

IS IT MID- OCTOBER YET!?!?!?!?!




The Honda Accord has been a perpetual bestseller in the midsize sedan segment, so when the time came to design the ninth-generation model, Honda kept one thing in mind: Don't fix what isn't broken. Even with stiff competition from the recently revamped Chevrolet Malibu, Nissan Altima, and Toyota Camry, Motor Trend's 2012 Car of the Year Volkswagen Passat, and the upcoming 2013 Ford Fusion, the Japanese automaker felt it was key to retain the Accord's winning formula and took an evolutionary rather than a revolutionary approach. As result, the 2013 Accord mostly resembles the current model, albeit with a contemporary twist. From a design standpoint, the 2013 Accord doesn't stray far from its predecessor and keeps the same shape with its large greenhouse. However, the beltline has been lowered a smidge to improve overall visibility. Tweaks to the sheetmetal lend the Accord a bolder look with sharper lines. Extensive use of high-tensile steel, which makes up 55.8 percent of the unibody, reduces weight and increases structural rigidity.What's under the hood of the 2013 isn't entirely new either. The most significant change is the departure of the much-maligned five-speed gearboxes in favor of a six-speed manual or CVT for four-cylinder models and a six-speed manual or automatic for V-6 Accords, though the combination of the V-6 and a manual is offered only on the Accord Coupe.

The ninth-generation Accord Launched Wednesday, September 19, 2012!

 
The ninth-generation Accord Launched Wednesday, September 19, 2012!
 
LOS ANGELES (Bloomberg) -- Honda Motor Co. is building the new Accord sedan at a record rate so dealers can start selling it this week as competition with mid-sized models from Toyota Motor Corp., Nissan Motor Co. and Ford Motor Co. intensifies.

Production of the 2013 Accord was at 6,000 units a week and rising at Honda's Marysville, Ohio, plant as of Sept. 14, said Mike Fischer, production leader for the car. Since the start of production on Aug. 20, no new Honda model has been built at a faster pace and with fewer flaws, he said.

"We're at a benchmark pace," said Fischer, an associate chief engineer for Tokyo-based Honda, without elaborating. "Typically, some of our initial indicators for a production ramp-up are set for a three-month level. We've challenged ourselves to meet that in one month."

The ninth-generation Accord goes on sale in the United States on Sept. 19 as Nissan boosts output of a revamped Altima, Toyota expands deliveries of the Camry and Ford readies a restyled Fusion.
Mid-sized car sales are the biggest segment in the United States this year, up 22 percent through

August to 2.52 million and outpacing the 15 percent increase in total car and truck sales, according to Woodcliff Lake, N.J.-based Autodata Corp.

The Camry, redesigned in 2011, remains the best-selling U.S. car, up 37 percent this year to 280,536. The 2012 Accord follows with sales of 218,665, ahead of Altima at 209,592 and Fusion at 181,865.
"Midsize sedans are where everyone is putting their resources right now," said Michael Robinet, managing director for industry consultant IHS Automotive based in Northville, Mich. "It's a knockdown, drag-out battle in that segment."

Production pace

Production of LX, Sport and EX grades of Honda's flagship sedan with four- and six-cylinder engines will grow throughout the year at the Ohio plant, Fischer said.A redesigned Accord coupe will also be made in Marysville starting next month.
The plant has made Accords since 1982.

"We'll be continuing to ramp our production to what that actual peak market condition will be," Fischer said, without elaborating.

Nissan has raised output of 2013 Altimas at plants in Tennessee and Mississippi since May and will further accelerate the pace when both factories build it on three-shift schedules later this year, said Katherine Zachary, a company spokeswoman.

As much as 90 percent of Altima sales this month will be of the new car as dealers sell out of 2012 models, she said.

Honda's goal is to sell 350,000 of its new Accords annually in the United States.
Nissan hasn't set a similar target for Altima.

The automaker can build about 300,000 annually and as many as 400,000 by 2013 should demand reach that level, Bill Krueger, Nissan's vice chairman of the Americas, said in May.

She's Here.... The Wait is OVER!!!!!!!

 
 
The ninth-generation Accord is a stunning combination of style and sophistication. Not only do the Accord Sedan and Coupe sport dynamic new exterior and interior designs, but they also show off a host of new technologies.

The Accord delivers a spacious and luxurious passenger cabin wrapped in an upscale, sophisticated body style that will stand the test of time. Beyond the beautiful exterior, it was truly designed around the needs of the driver and all passengers. Designed with a focus on customer needs, smart interior packaging allows for increased passenger and cargo space in both the Sedan and the Coupe, while the overall exterior lengths are noticeably shortened, contributing to a sportier driving character and easier parking. An expansive greenhouse and generous rear seating area provide excellent levels of visibility and comfort for the driver and all passengers.

The 2013 Accord will debut ingenious new available features, such as Lane Departure Warning (LDW)[1], Forward Collision Warning (FCW)[2] and the Honda-exclusive LaneWatch™ blind spot display[3]. The new Accord also introduces HondaLink™, a cloud-based system that connects you to Bluetooth®[4] Streaming Audio, Pandora® internet radio[5] SMS text message function[6] and all your favorite digital content without hassling with your mobile phone.

2013 Honda Accord Adds Thousands of Dollars in New Standard Features with an MSRP Starting Under $22,000

 
Pricing For All-Aew Accord Remains Consistent With Outgoing Model!!!!! 
      
The dynamic all-new 2013 Honda Accord Sedan will debut at U.S. dealers nationwide on September 19, with a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) ranging from $21,680 for the well-equipped Accord LX to $33,430 for the luxurious Accord Touring model, plus a destination and handling charge1 of $790 per vehicle. The Accord Coupe will go on sale October 15 with a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) starting at $23,350 for the sporty LX-S model plus a destination and handling charge1.

The all-new Accord adds thousands of dollars worth of standard features and technologies with average pricing across the sedan lineup increasing by less than $300. The price of the most popular Accord LX (4-cylinder) trim is up by only $200.

The 2013 Honda Accord has been fully redesigned from the ground up to deliver new levels of refinement, sophistication, fuel efficiency and fun-to-drive performance in the midsize segment. Every new Accord is equipped with alloy wheels, and standard features now also include a rearview camera, an Expanded View Driver's Mirror, Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, USB/iPod® integration, Pandora® internet radio compatibility, SMS text message function, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a 160-watt AM/FM/CD audio system.

"The 2013 Accord excels in all areas with sophisticated design, a luxurious interior, world-class dynamic performance, class-leading standard features and legendary Honda quality, all at a tremendous value for the customer," said John Mendel, executive vice president of sales, American Honda Motor Co. Inc., "2012 is the year of the midsize sedan, and the new Accord will once again solidify Honda's position at the head of the pack."

New to the Accord Sedan lineup for 2013 are the Sport and Touring models. The Accord Sport targets younger buyers with the addition of 18-inch alloy wheels, fog lights,10-way power driver's seats, a decklid spoiler, dual chrome exhaust finishers, paddle shifters (on CVT models), a stiffer tower strut bar and exclusive suspension and steering tuning. Positioned between the Accord LX and Accord EX, the Sport model is equipped with the 2.4-liter direct-injected all-aluminum VTEC® engine paired to either a 6-speed manual or Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). The Sport model is value priced with a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $23,390 plus a destination and handling charge1.

The luxurious and technology-packed Accord Touring is equipped with a powerful V-6 engine and 6-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with Honda's first application of LED headlights and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), the Accord Touring sedan is priced with a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of $33,430 plus a destination and handling charge1.

The 2013 Accord lineup is powered by a wide array of new Earth Dreams™ powertrains, which includes the first U.S. application of Honda's next-generation 2.4-liter direct-injected VTEC 4-cylinder engine. The 2013 Accord Sedan and Coupe will also offer a more powerful and efficient Earth Dreams VTEC V-6. Three transmissions are available, including the first-ever application of a continuously variable transmission (CVT) on 2.4-liter 4-cylinder models, a six-speed automatic on V-6 models, and 6-speed manual transmissions on 2.4-liter 4-cylinder models and the 3.5-liter V-6 Coupe.

The 2013 Accord successfully balances fun-to-drive performance with fuel efficiency. Accord Sedan 4-cylinder models paired to the CVT earn an impressive 27/36/30 mpg2 city/highway/combined EPA fuel economy ratings (an increase of 3/2/3 mpg compared to the previous model) and the V-6 models achieve class-leading EPA fuel economy ratings of 21/34/25 city/highway/combined mpg2 (an increase of 1/4/1 compared to the previous model) making it the most fuel-efficient gasoline-powered vehicle in the V-6 midsize sedan class.

Other new Accord technologies include the first application of the all-new cloud-based HondaLink™ system featuring Aha™, which lets drivers put away their smartphones and still stay connected to the people, music and social media they love. Also debuting on the 2013 Accord is Honda LaneWatch™ blind-spot display, which uses a camera integrated with the passenger-side mirror and the vehicle's 8-inch color display to provide for an enhanced view of the passenger-side roadway. LaneWatch is standard equipment on EX and above versions of the Sedan, and EX-L versions of the Coupe.
Celebrating 30 years of Accord production in the United States, the all-new 2013 Honda represents the expanding capabilities of Honda in North America. The Accord is produced by Honda of America Mfg. Inc. in Marysville, Ohio, using domestic and globally sourced parts.
