Accord’s instrument panel combines beautiful form and intuitive function.

During the development of the new Accord, designers set out to create a highly functional and intuitive interface between the vehicle and the driver. Key design features include large analog instrumentation complemented with a new 8-inch color “intelligent” Multi-Information Display (i-MID) positioned high in the central part of the instrument panel.

A range of new audio systems is offered, and there’s an available easy-to-use color touch-screen display that virtually eliminates button clutter. The final elements of Accord’s smart interface approach are its steering wheel-mounted controls. By allowing the driver to operate a range of features without taking his or her hands off the wheel, the potential for driver distraction can be reduced in many situations.

Accord has elegant analog instrumentation with a sophisticated and technical appearance. A high-contrast Multi-Information Display (MID) is positioned in the center of the speedometer and provides a range of information and trip computer functions.

Attention to detail is obvious in the new Accord, with high-quality materials and finishes everywhere you look. But Honda engineers have taken the attention to detail even further, with a new one-piece soft-touch instrument panel top that completely conceals the passenger-side airbag and has a premium look and feel.
