The Honda Accord made its official debut in the Southeast Asian market at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2023. After being introduced in Indonesia four months ago, this D-segment sedan has finally received its official pricing.
In the Indonesian market, the Honda Accord 2024 is available in one variant – the RS – with a starting price of 959.9 million Rupiah (approximately 1.51 billion Vietnamese Dong). Compared to prices in Thailand, which range from 1.529 – 1.799 billion Baht (approximately 1.05 – 1.23 billion Vietnamese Dong), the new generation Honda Accord is considerably pricier in Indonesia.
One of the reasons for the higher price tag of the Honda Accord 2024 is the inclusion of the new hybrid powertrain known as e:HEV. This sedan utilizes a 2.0L, 4-cylinder Atkinson Cycle gasoline engine, producing a maximum power of 146 horsepower and a peak torque of 182 Nm.
The gasoline engine serves as the main generator, while the e-CVT transmission incorporates an electric motor to charge the lithium-ion battery pack. This battery pack powers the second electric motor, generating 181 horsepower and 335 Nm of torque. The gasoline engine can also directly drive the wheels at higher speeds through a lock-up clutch. In total, the Honda Accord e:HEV 2023 boasts a combined power output of 204 horsepower.

Moreover, this marks the introduction of the RS sporty variant for the Accord. The prominent feature of this variant is the red “RS” logo on the front grille and rear trunk lid.

In terms of safety, the Honda Accord 2024 in the Indonesian market is well-equipped with features such as a 360-degree camera, 8 airbags, and the Honda LaneWatch lane watch camera. The Honda Sensing active safety technology package, including adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning, is also included in this model.
Currently, there is no information regarding the release of the new Honda Accord in Vietnam. If it arrives in Vietnam with prices similar to other Southeast Asian markets, this D-segment sedan will face tough competition from rivals in the same segment, such as the Toyota Camry and Kia K5.
