8th Generation 2008 Honda Accord
8th Generation 2008 Honda Accord
the 8th in its generation, and it is the biggest Honda Accord ever. Like its previous model it is available in 3 variants at launch, with 2 locally assembled 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter variants, and a Thai-imported 3.5 liter V6 model.
The engine under the hood of the Honda Accord 2.0 VTi is the new 2.0 liter R-series SOHC i-VTEC engine that we first saw introduced locally in the Honda CR-V (the R-series family itself first made its debut in the Civic 1.8S). Installed in the Honda Accord’s engine bay, this engine puts out 156 PS at 6,300rpm and a peak torque of 189Nm at 4,300rpm. This engine is mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission with dual overdrive ratios for better fuel economy. The 2.4 liter Honda Accord VTi-L model is powered by the familiar K24 2.0 liter DOHC i-VTEC engine, but is now tuned to produce 180 PS, or 177 horsepower. This kicks in at 6,500rpm. Peak torque is now 222Nm at 4,300rpm, with 180Nm available from 1,600rpm and 200Nm available from 2000rpm. It is also mated to a 5-speed automatic, but the 2.4 liter also has the option of manual sequential shifting via paddle shifters mounted on the steering wheel - flick the right paddle to upshift and the left paddle to downshift
The 3.5 liter SOHC i-VTEC V6 with Variable Cylinder Management is nice to look at but its prohibitive price and road tax costs will make it the halo model of the Accord range. Power output is the best of all three - 275 PS at 6,200rpm and 339Nm of torque at 5,000rpm. The VCM engine runs in three different modes depending on engine load. You have the six-cylinder mode for power, and four- and three-cylinder modes for efficiency, switching between them seamlessly.
