Honda Accord EX V6
Honda nixed the V6 option for the Accord in 2017, but turbocharged four-cylinder replacements are still impressive.
Honda offered its Accord with a V6 engine from the mid-1990s through 2017 when they replaced the V6 with a surprisingly powerful turbo four-cylinder.
Honda’s removal of a V6 option from its Accord lineup in 2018 had a lot of enthusiasts worried. However, the replacement four-cylinders are just as impressive and fun to drive. Those who won’t be happy with anything else will need to head to the used car lot to get a V6 Honda Accord.
If you just can’t be bothered by anything less than a V6 in your Accord, we're here to help you find what you need. Read on to learn about the years and models on which you can get a Honda Accord V6.

How’s the fuel economy?
Hondas have never disappointed when it comes to reliability and fuel economy, and the Accord EX V6 was no exception. The 2017 model returned a combined 26 mpg, with 21 mpg city and an impressive 34 mpg highway.
Which Accord models have the V6?
While the Accord never came standard with a V6 engine, it was an option on the Sport, EX, and Touring models until 2017.
How fast is the Honda Accord V6?
The V6 certainly peps up the Accord’s performance, but it’s still a family sedan, not a sports car. That said, when equipped with the standard four-cylinder engine, the 2017 Accord EX took 6.9 seconds to reach 60 mph. When equipped with the V6, it blew past 60 in just 5.7 seconds, making it one of the fastest cars in its segment.
Here’s how the Honda Accord’s rivals compare when it comes to acceleration time from 0 to 60 mph:
Key Takeaway When equipped with the V6, the Honda Accord EX has no trouble keeping up with the competition.
Which model should I choose?
In 2017, buyers could opt for a V6 engine on the Sport, EX, and Touring trims of the Honda Accord. The Sport also featured a high-flow dual-exhaust system and standard six-speed manual transmission whether you chose the V6 or not, making it a great option for the more sports-minded driver.
When it comes to available options, the EX had a lot more, and the Touring may have had a little too much. Even without the V6, the Touring trim already came in $10,000 higher than the EX to start. All things considered, that makes the EX your best option for a nice balance between performance capability and luxury options.
