Honda Accord has tried a number of bodies before settling for sedan body, while Honda Sonata has always been a sedan. The former belongs to Honda Motor Corporation of Japan that is considered synonymous with quality while the later one is Hyundai Motor Company that is a South Korean manufacturer.   The quality differs as according to the perspective of customer, as there are many avenues where Honda Accord takes lead while Hyundai Sonata has also given it a tough competition.


As Used Car

Honda AccordThough both vehicle belong to the affordable range of sedan, with 5 passenger seats and even similar length. The Honda Accord bears the distinction of being available for global sales since the beginning, though Hyundai Sonata reached global market in its second generation. Hence as used car Honda Accord had the edge in terms of awareness of the model in the mind of customers at the time of purchase. Both the vehicle has gone through multiple facelifts but Hyundai Sonata takes the lead in terms of last update in 2015, so the used car customer get something near present when they go for this vehicle.


Safety

Both the vehicles are safe, and have passed a number of tests for being driving options that can be driven with confidence. Hence the children are safe inside with LATCH hardware and third seat with tether anchor. The brake assist in both of them are great in functionality. The further digging into safety shows that frontal barrier crash rating for driver and passenger are rated low in Honda Accord though Hyundai Sonata is able to pass this quiet well. The roll over rating, on the other hand, is higher for Honda Accord as compare to Hyundai Sonata.


Interior Refinement

Hyundai Sonata

Honda Accord has been serving global market since long enhancing expectations to a greater level. It is because of the exceeding customer expectation from interior that Hyundai Sonata wins here. The spaciousness aids in movement of head and leg well. The high quality interior features make the car stand out in class. The comfortable seats make long drives less tiring and supporting the back side of occupant.

 

The power adjusted seats that have heat management mechanism brings the best level of everything. The Honda Accord has cloth upholstery and multiple comforting options though there is a lot of area of improvement.


Performance

The Honda Accord high performance model comes with 278 horsepower V6 engine that is hard to compete for Hyundai Sonata highest 245 horsepower vehicle. The other factor that contributes in giving Honda Accord better performance rating is the manual transmission availability aside from continuously variable transmission and automatic transmission. Hence Hyundai Sonata automatic transmission only gives it disadvantage.


The Hyundai Sonata vs Honda Accord review shows that there are few options where either Sonata or Accord has edge.
