The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating

8.6
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2013 Honda Accord is one of America's best, most sensible sedans, even if it hasn't changed radically. With a standout design; perky performance; great gas mileage; and exceptional value for the money, the 2013 Hyundai Sonata is one of the best buys among mid-size sedans.
