The 2025 Honda Accord has made its debut at Honda dealerships, offering a range of new features and a fresh trim level. The new Accord SE combines sporty black exterior accents with a host of high-demand features, further enhancing the appeal of the popular sedan.
With its sleek and expressive design, the Accord SE stands out on the road. It features black 17-inch alloy wheels, black window trim, black door mirrors, a black shark fin antenna, and gloss-black B-pillar trim. These sporty exterior touches give the Accord SE a unique and eye-catching appearance.
Inside the Accord SE, you'll find a well-equipped cabin that enhances comfort and convenience. The SE builds upon the generous features of the LX trim, offering heated front seats, a one-touch power sliding moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 10-way power driver's seat with lumbar control, and an 8-speaker audio system. The cabin exudes modern sophistication with elegant piano black trim and a striking metal mesh accent across the instrument panel.
All trims of the 2025 Accord now come standard with rear air conditioning vents and USB-C ports, ensuring optimal comfort and connectivity for all passengers. Additionally, the hybrid models, starting with the Accord Sport, come equipped with heated front seats and a Qi-compatible 15W wireless phone charger. The top-of-the-line Accord Touring adds a heated steering wheel for added luxury.
Under the hood, the Accord SE is powered by a smooth and responsive 1.5-liter turbo engine with VTEC® variable valve lift technology. This efficient engine produces 192 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque, offering a dynamic driving experience. The SE trim is equipped with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) featuring Step-Shift programming that emulates gear changes at full throttle. The Accord also offers selectable drive modes, including Econ, Normal, and Sport modes, allowing drivers to tailor their driving experience to their preference.

The Accord Sport, EX-L, Sport-L, and Touring trims feature the powerful Honda two-motor hybrid system, delivering a total system output of 204 horsepower. These hybrid models also come with Linear Shift Control, which mimics the rev feel associated with shifting gears under acceleration, enhancing the sporty driving experience.
