Yep, a 6 inch heads up display (on touring only?) again, another feature we could see trickle down to civic in the near future.

Hope we can retro fit it possibly in our cars...

Front end really reminds me of an Audi

Guarantee the mid cycle Civic refresh gets Sensing and some of the new extra standard. Along with knobs.

And since it's nearly 100 humid degrees out, throw us the cooled seats big H. Come on bruh.

Too Chevy Impala for me.

Friggin sweet. I never thought they'd offer the 2.0T with a 6. I was convinced I was going to get an Si...not that I'd be disappointed with another one, but yeah, I'm happy with this Accord.

Styling leaves me a little disappointed. Yes, it borrows alot of the Civic X design but like others have noted it also borrow a ton from the Chevy Impala. There's just something lacking in the details that doesn't all quite flow well unlike the Civic X, IMHO. I wish the fender had a bit more structure and flare to give the car a bit more "muscle" in its looks.

I am impressed with the powerplants and features though. And I've gotta chuckle when people are giddy over a knob. haha

I just found the Accord's early inspiration automobile!

Mercury Cyclone.

It's essentially the same engine. But as Honda stated it's more than just a detune. They swapped a lot of engine components in the name of efficiency and using regular grade fuel. However. Imagine an accord 2.0T swapped into a civic. People could finally have the 250+ horsepower Si they wanted originally.

knowing the massive Honda tuning community ...just imagine the potential this will do

I'll give it a year before we see this. LOL

Anyone know what the "traffic sign recognition" feature of the Accord's Sensing package actually does? This appears to be a new Sensing feature, one not present in the 2017 Civic or 2017 CR-V Sensing, for example.

Probably like the other manufacturers implementation of it. Camera scans for speed limit signs and displays the in the gauge cluster.

It might also scan for stop signs, prevent the driver from running a stop sign.
