Accord - Technology

Control and Response

The all-new Accord's secure handling matches your enthusiasm for sporty driving. A lowered centre of gravity, a wider track and greater body rigidity readily reacts to driver input that in turn, inspires confidence. A quicker steering ratio also keeps with the more agile chassis characteristics for response that is characteristically Honda.

VCM (Variable Cylinder Management)

The new VCM increases high power performance and enhances fuel economy by partially halting the action of some cylinders through freely controlled engine displacement based on the driving pattern.

Noise, Vibration and Harshness

Integral to the VCM, comprehensive Noise, Vibration and Harshness systems dampen the roar of the engine, as the engine switches between three, four to six cylinder operations. Special rubber floating mounts, acoustic roof lining, and hood insulators work together to minimise the intrusion of sound into the cabin for a quieter driving experience.

VCM

ACM (Active Control Engine Mount System)

Active control engine mounting cancels out annoying engine vibration.
ANC (Active Noise Control)

Cancels out booming noise by emitting a sound wave with the same amplitude and opposite polarity to the original sound from the audio sound system.
DBW (Drive-By-Wire)

DBW technology allows for smoother shifting via an electronic throttle control. The linkage to the intelligent Grade Logic Control enhances drive and reduces gear hunting.
