While sedans like the Honda Accord and the Toyota Corolla aren’t known for their power, they still have a lot to offer. In fact, one of these sedans reaches close to the 200-mark when it comes to horsepower. Let’s find out just how these engines perform.
When it comes to power and performance, the Honda Accord knocks it out of the park. Lift the hood of the standard trim and you’ll find a 1.5L turbo engine, complete with 192 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque.
While the standard engine on the Toyota is a larger 2.0L, it only generates 169 horsepower and 151 lb-ft of torque.
Plus, the1.5L engine of the Honda also includes Eco Assistâ„¢, which helps you be a more efficient driver in stop-and-go traffic.
They do, however, share some performance similarities. For example, each vehicle offers available drive mode systems among their higher trim levels. This allows drivers to adapt to road and weather conditions more easily, thus staying more in control on the roadways. They both also come standard with front-wheel drive.
Sedans find the perfect middle ground between spacious interiors and compact exteriors. While both models have room for five passengers, there’s no question as to which model will be more comfortable for you and your passengers.
We’ll let the numbers answer this one. Up front, the Honda Accord provides tons of room for you and your passengers. Unfortunately, the Toyota Corolla just isn’t as roomy up front. Check out their front row dimensions:

While we’re in the front row, we should also mention that the Accord offers Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control. Corolla drivers will have to make use of the single-zone automatic climate control.
People aren’t all that will enjoy some extra space inside the Accord. Your luggage, backpacks, or groceries will fit nicely within 16.7 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume. Unfortunately, Toyota only brings 13.1 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume to the Corolla.
Whether you’re driving to work or dropping off the kids at school, getting to your destination safely is always the top priority. The Honda Accord and the Toyota Corolla are two sedans that deliver. As such, both models provide numerous safety features.
This answer is almost a tie, as both the Accord and the Corolla offer these following safety advantages—all standard, we might add:
There’s one thing that does give the Accord a bit of a safety edge, though. It’s known as ACE™ (Advanced Compatibility Engineering™) Body Structure. This Honda-exclusive body design uses a network of front frame structures to deflect and absorb energy caused by a frontal collision. You’ll find this design element built into every trim of the Accord, too.
Of course, as mentioned above, it’s exclusive to Honda, so you won’t find it in the Corolla.
