Thanks for posting these links.
The hybrid's new wheels look much better than the previous version - which I have.

The wheels caught my eye right away... aren't they similar to a previous generation's wheels (9th Gen Accord sport wheels on 10th Gen Accord. Anyone seen this yet? Reply #2).

?

They do look very similar but is it me or do the "newer" ones have a little more "concavity"?

 

[Fired00d]

There is more concave towards the center, and center caps are different...

I can't figure out if the new wheel designs are optional rims or standard rims for the various trim levels (standard 17 inch, Sport 19 inch, Touring 19 inch, and Hybrid). They say three new wheel designs but they show four (?) new wheel designs (Hybrid Touring gets the 19 inch rims that look like the 9th gen sport rims). The brief shot of the Sport in the video showed similar Sport wheels that are on the 2018-20 models.

Been checking Honda website off & on today to see if they had updated it w/2021 Accords but no joy yet.

 

[Fired00d]

Honda website has been updated - 2021 Honda Accord.

 

[Fired00d]

One of the new "Refreshed" features of the 2021 Accords is wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto... will be interesting to see if the infotainment center part number in the new Accord will be the same as the "18 - "20 MY. If so could a software update enable the "18 - "20 MY Accord's this ability too.

I like the wheels but this will be my last Accord purchase. I bought a 2018 and 2020 and since they are getting rid of the manuals, I guess it’s a wrap for me. Guess I will be going back to Lexus when I am done with Honda.

Does the Lexus have a manual?

I like the rims on my 2018 Accord Touring 2.0t much better than the new 2021 rims. Like them or not, the 2018 rims are much more unique. IMO

The new wheels are dope!!! Had they been on "18's I may have stuck w/stock.

Manuals are fun to drive... have owned several thru the years. However "Father Time" & arthritis has made me enjoy the comfort of not having to shift gears.... especially in city driving.

Yes really hoping to get this feature.

In my "KISS" way of thinking it should be just a programming thing since our car's are already Bluetooth capable... maybe I'm making it too simple though.

yep, I would get an older one. I had an IS300 back in the gap that I loved. I love my Accord but I’m just playing around with it until I gift it to my sons.

Trust me I have my moments where I miss an automatic until I hear my exhaust 😂

I understand that... I do the same at times when I'm on my Harley.
