Six airbags for Honda Accord 2.4
Because car makers don’t usually refresh their entire product line-up one shot, many often find themselves in situations where models of lower segments come with better or more advanced features than their more expensive siblings that were launched earlier.
Honda found itself in such a paradox after launching the latest City and Jazz both with the option of six airbags but at the same time having its flagship Accord that was launched earlier limited to just four, or two in the case of the 2.0-litre models.
This particular discrepancy has been rectified, however, as Honda has upgraded the range-topping Accord 2.4 VTi-L model to six airbags, adding two curtain airbags to complement the existing dual frontal and side airbags. The price of this upgrade is a not unreasonable price increase of RM2,000 to its on-the-road price, as the flagship variant now hits the road at RM174,817.10 inclusive of insurance.
The 2.0-litre models remain as they are, being priced at RM139,815.30 for the entry-level VTi and RM149,815.30 for the mid-range VTi-L model.
