2020 Lexus LS vs. 2020 Honda Accord
The 2020 Lexus LS is an excellent car with numerous luxury features. This large sedan also comes with numerous tech and safety features that ensure that any ride is as pleasant as possible. The 2020 Lexus LS is also spacious and offers a generous amount of luggage space. All said, the 2020 Lexus LS is one of the best sedans out there.
The 2020 Honda Accord is the latest in the long line Accords and thus comes with a reputation for reliability and comfort. The 2020 Accord certainly does its best to live up to this expectation but is let down by a rather noisy engine as well as rear blind spots. Let us see how these two cars compare against each other.
Design & Style
When it comes to design and styling, there are few cars out there that can rival the LS. From plush leather upholstery to a large spacious cabin, the LS is designed for power and comfort. Premium materials are used throughout the car and even the controls are designed for ease of use.
When it comes to the Honda Accord, buyers get a spacious cabin although the external styling is not very inspiring. Luggage space is also generous and the car offers plenty of legroom. All said the 2020 Honda Accord is well styled although it is miles behind the Lexus LS.
Technology & Safety
With the 2020 Lexus LS, buyers get a 12.3-inch display that controls most of the features inside the cabin. Phone integration comes in the form of Apple CarPlay and Amazon Alexa integration is also thrown in as a standard feature. Voice recognition is added as a back up to the touch screen display. This way, occupants can control various features of the cabin without reaching out to the display.
The 2020 Honda Accord also features a variety of tech that includes an 8-inch infotainment display. The Accord lacks any smartphone integration features apart from premium models. USB charging points are available as is Bluetooth connectivity.
Performance
Under the hood, the 2020 Lexus LS comes with a turbocharged V6 engine that offers more than sufficient power. For such a powerful engine, the ride is very quiet even at high speeds, a factor of both the engine and excellent sound insulation in the cabin. A 10-speed automatic transmission controls the engine and we found it to deliver a high-quality ride. The suspension keeps almost all but the worst of road imperfections from the cabin.
When it comes to the 2020 Honda Accord, power is provided by a 2-liter engine that is connected to a six-speed automatic transmission (although manual options exist as well). The engine powers the car sufficiently well although as noted earlier, it can get very noisy especially at high speed. The car handles corners sufficiently well and the suspension is fairly good as well.
The Bottom Line
The 2020 Lexus LS and the 2020 Honda Accord are both good cars but the LS outpaces the Accord by a huge margin. From tech to cabin luxury and engine performance, it is hard to see any area in which these two cars are even comparable. For this reason, the 2020 Lexus LS wins this comparison by a huge margin.
