A Spotter's Guide to the 2023 Honda Accord's Trim Levels
A new Honda Accord is always a big deal, and now that the 2023 model is starting to reach dealerships, we thought we'd take a closer look at its reconfigured lineup. The basic trim-level names are familiar from before—LX, EX, Sport, and Touring—but there are now certain trims that come only as hybrids. What follows is a breakdown of the 2023 Accord's six trims to show what they look like, how much they cost, and what kind of equipment you get.
- 2/7
LX: $28,390
The base Accord comes with a turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-four carried over from the previous generation. It produces 192 horsepower and uses a continuously variable automatic transmission. The LX comes standard with 17-inch wheels, cloth seats, a 7.0-inch touchscreen, and plenty of driver-assistance features.

EX: $30,705
One step up gets you the EX, which has the same turbo-four engine as the LX but adds a few niceties such as a sunroof, heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, and blind-spot monitoring. It doesn't look much different, though as it has the same 17-inch wheels as the LX.
- 4/7
Sport: $32,990
The Sport trim is where Honda starts to shake things up for 2023. It comes only with a 204-hp hybrid powertrain that's reworked for better performance compared with the previous Accord Hybrid. The Sport also looks quite different thanks to 19-inch wheels, a decklid spoiler, and a few extra color options. Inside, you get a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay.

EX-L Hybrid: $34,635
The EX-L is essentially an Accord EX with leather seats, but it also comes only as a hybrid. It also gets a few additional features including parking sensors and a memory function for the power driver's seat.

Sport-L: $34,970
Like with the EX-L, the L in Sport-L stands for leather. It's visually differentiated with black 19-inch wheels, and it has the same spoiler and body kit as the Sport. This model is also hybrid-only and adds a power passenger's seat.
- 7/7
Touring: $38,985
Touring is Honda-speak for "fully loaded," so this hybrid-only model offers every feature available in the 2023 Accord. Most notably, that includes Google-based apps for the infotainment system, a head-up display, an upgraded audio system, heated and cooled front seats and heated rear seats, and a wireless phone charger.
