In the U.S. market, the 2007 Honda Accord offered two gasoline engine options: a 2.4-liter inline-4 and an optional 3.0-liter V6.
Engine options for the 2007 Accord
The 2007 Accord lineup could be powered by either of two engines, with the four-cylinder powering most base trims and the V6 available on higher-end models for those who wanted stronger performance.
2.4-liter inline-4 i-VTEC
Key specifications for the 2.4-liter engine commonly found in the 2007 Accord include:
- Displacement: 2.4 L
- Configuration: inline-4 with i-VTEC
- Valvetrain: dual overhead cam (DOHC) with i-VTEC
- Power: about 166 hp
- Torque: about 160 lb-ft
- Typical transmissions: 5-speed manual or 5-speed automatic
- Drive layout: front-wheel drive
For most buyers, the 2.4L engine provided a balance of respectable performance and fuel efficiency, making it the standard choice on many trims.
3.0-liter V6
Key specifications for the available 3.0-liter V6 engine include:
- Displacement: 3.0 L
- Configuration: 60-degree V6 with i-VTEC
- Valvetrain: DOHC with i-VTEC
- Power: around 244 hp
- Torque: around 211 lb-ft
- Typical transmission: 5-speed automatic (manual not commonly offered on most V6 trims)
- Drive layout: front-wheel drive
The 3.0-liter V6 delivered notably stronger acceleration and higher-end performance, appealing to buyers seeking a more spirited driving experience while sacrificing some fuel economy compared to the four-cylinder option.
Notes on market variations
While the above two engines cover the North American 2007 Accord lineup, some markets outside the United States occasionally offered different powertrains or trims. There was also a separate hybrid variant offered in certain years, though it was not part of the standard gasoline engine lineup for the majority of 2007 models.
Summary
The 2007 Honda Accord’s gasoline engine lineup consisted of two options: a 2.4-liter inline-4 i-VTEC that powered most trims, and a more powerful 3.0-liter V6 that was available on higher-end configurations. The four-cylinder provided balanced efficiency and performance for daily driving, while the V6 offered stronger acceleration and a more premium feel for buyers prioritizing performance.
