2.0 SOHC i-VTEC – 156 KS, with solid volume and reasonable transmission, two-liter Accord will push most of the competitors with the base gasoline engine in the pocket. However, the maximum torque 192 Nm pri 4100 O / me. The advantage of the improved efficiency and simpler solution variable valve timing than with the larger engine.
2.4 DOHC i-VTEC – 201 KS, although Honda's larger gasoline engine offered only with the highest level of equipment and appreciated it for the same money as well as diesel, 2.4-liter četvorocilindar not a complete rarity.

2.2 i-DTEC – 150 KS, all-aluminum four-cylinder diesel from Honda's redesigned predecessor of i-VTEC-i in the i-DTEC, adding new advanced technologies. The higher injection pressure has been linked with a move to the piezo injectors, EGR circuit was processed, engine got bigger turbo, and a particulate filter as standard. Honda diesel is above average reliable, but because of its massive turbo-effect of overloading the clutch and flywheel floating in city traffic. There is a risk of wear of the injector, sensor differential pressure on the filter particles, or cracking flue gases to EGR at higher attacks.
2.2 i-DTEC – Snaga od 180 KS, stronger diesel Honda was launched a year after the launch of Accord's, Unlike inferior version has never been available with automatic transmission. Complicated but reliable design weaker version has been supplemented by larger cooler compressed air. as a result of, maximum torque not only jumped 30 resulting in 380 Nm, but is also available in a wider rpm range.
Dizel 2.2 proved to be excellent, but extremely expensive. I-DTEC diesel engine is one of the most modern diesel engines. Although a particle filter, it is not too problematic. There are individual reports of inefficient pumps oil in the engine after high mileage, but for now it is not a big problem. I-DTEC engine is equipped with an automatic transmission only in a weaker variant of 150 horsepower. More powerful diesel has a manual transmission.
All engines in the Accord-in are equipped with chain-powered engine that does not cause any problems.
gearboxes, Manual and automatic, is deemed reliable. For the first is considered to be one of the best general.

Varnish at Accord VIII is not the best, has a soft structure, easy peeling and cracking. The models of the first two years should be counted corrosion bonnet (inside). In the first model with turbo diesel engines , diesel engine particulate filter is quickly clogged. Result of dilution of engine oil with fuel, which poses a threat to the engine.
