The new Honda Accord

"First introduced to American car buyers in 1976, the Honda Accord is the second-longest-running automotive nameplate in Honda's history, after the Honda Civic. Accord has become a household name over nine generations and 42 model years, and since its introduction, American car buyers have purchased more Accords than any other passenger car, with total U.S. sales exceeding 13 million vehicles. The current, ninth-generation, Accord has been the top retail-selling midsize car in America for the past six years (2011-2016). The Accord was the first automobile from a Japanese automaker to be manufactured in America and has been in continuous production at the company's Marysville, Ohio auto plant since November 1, 1982, using domestic and globally-sourced parts. Total U.S. Accord production exceeds 11 million units. In 1987, Honda Accord became the first U.S-made automobile from a Japanese automaker to be exported overseas (Accord Sedan to Taiwan)."
