Right from the beginning, the Honda Accord stands above the Toyota Camry in several key areas. In terms of performance, the Accord shines with greater torque than the Camry. If you’re searching for maximum interior comfort the Accord also is the favorite, delivering greater passenger room and greater cargo room than the Camry. Additional comfort and convenience features, such as a multi-angle rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, and Traffic Jam Assist, are offered on the Accord. Camry shoppers will not have access to any of these features.

Floor mats are standard equipment on the Accord while Camry shoppers will have to pay an extra cost. Active Noise Cancellation comes standard on the Accord, but isn’t available at all on the Camry. Meaning that you will enjoy a quieter and more serene experience in the Accord. Remote Engine Start, which comes in handy on those chilly winter mornings, is standard on the Accord EX and above trims. This useful feature is an added cost, dealer installed option on the Camry.
