Reviews SummaryWhile American sedans have come and gone, the Honda Accord has kept a singular purpose (and the same name) for 42 straight years. It’s reliable, roomy, efficient, and unpretentious. Yet unlike most family sedans, the Accord has always been tuned with the sort of engineering attention given to sporty cars. It’s this rewarding connection between car and driver that makes the Accord, especially this all-new 2018 model, so appealing beyond its duty as a commuter. | |
Reviews SummaryRodney Dangerfield was a legendary stand-up comedian, and while his on-stage shtick was all about how he didn’t get any respect, as a comedic talent he was held in the highest esteem. That’s not the case for the 2017 Chevrolet Malibu. The oft-maligned Malibu literally gets no respect, which is too bad because with its most recent redesign for the 2016 model year, the car absolutely deserves it. | |
