Honda Accord Third Generation (1986-1989)

Honda Accord Third Generation (1986-1989)


The first major turn in the third generation Accords that you would see was a new body style that resembled earlier Preludes. Other new turn was flip-up headlights, which were unique on sedan models.

A major mechanical design turn for the car was the inclusion of double-wishbones at both the front and rear ends of the car. They were more expensive than the typical Macpherson struts found in most small to medium size front engine cars. It also gave the car superior handling for a small sedan.

Some of the models now have four-wheel disk brakes in two separate sizes, while other models remained with the older front disk and rear drum combination.


Outside of the U.S. you could buy an Accord with an optional Abs system. Base U.S. Models came with 13-inch wheels while the more expensive units had optional 14 inch alloy wheels. From a first generation minimal interior you could now get a very luxurious one, with full power leather upholstery, heated seats, heated mirrors and atmosphere control.

Unfortunately because this car was sold as an economy model, these options were not available in the U.S.

The model line had now expanded to comprise a 2-door coupe, a 3-door hatchback, a 4-door sedan and a 3-door hub wagon. Engines came in two flavors, whether a 2.0 liter 98 hp model or a 2.0 liter 120 hp version. The transmissions discrete from a 4-speed automatic, a 5-speed automated and the thorough 5-speed manual.

During 1988 an Accord coupe was introduced for the first time. It was man-made in Marysville, Ohio and was especially celebrated as being the first Japanese car to be produced in a installation located in the U.S. And exported back to Japan.

In 1989 the Se-I model was introduced with leather sets, cup holders, a Bose music system, bronze-tinted glass and extra 14" alloy wheels. Also it came with a dual-tip muffler and 4-wheel disc brakes. The I designation was for fuel injection.
