The Honda Accord Coupe was discontinued after the 2017 model year. Honda confirmed that the 2018 Accord would be sold as a sedan only, ending the two-door variant that had been part of the lineup for years.
What follows is a closer look at when the decision was announced, why it happened, and what it means for the Accord lineup and enthusiasts.
Timeline and confirmation
Key dates surrounding the decision are listed below.
- February 2017: Honda confirms that the 2018 Accord will be a sedan-only model, effectively ending the coupe variant in the next generation.
- 2017 model year: The Accord Coupe is produced for the final time, with production wrapping up as Honda shifts to the sedan-only 2018 lineup.
- 2018 model year onward: The Accord is offered only as a four-door sedan in North America.
Honda’s decision reflected a broader market trend away from two-door mid-size models, as well as the costs of maintaining multiple body styles on a single platform.
Design, market context, and alternatives
The Accord Coupe’s discontinuation fits into a wider shift in the industry toward sedans and sportier trims within a single body. For buyers seeking a two-door Honda, the options are limited to older coupe generations or alternative models from Honda's lineup, such as the Civic Coupe or non-Accord options.
While Honda has kept a sporty edge in variants like the Accord Sport and performance-focused models in other markets, there is no official two-door Accord in the U.S. market today. Enthusiasts often turn to used examples from previous generations or to alternative brands for two-door mid-size performance coups.
Notes for enthusiasts
For buyers intent on a new Honda two-door experience, the practical path is to explore used Accord Coupes from prior generations or to consider similar two-door options from rival brands. Those seeking a newer Honda with a sportier feel can opt for trims such as the Civic Coupe or the sedan's sport-oriented variants.
In summary, the Accord Coupe was discontinued after the 2017 model year, with 2018 marking the shift to a sedan-only lineup in North America. The decision reflected market demand and the company's product strategy rather than a one-off model change.
Summary
The Honda Accord Coupe ended after the 2017 model year; Honda introduced the 2018 Accord as a sedan-only model, ending the two-door variant in North America. Since then, the Accord lineup has continued with four-door sedans and sport-oriented trims rather than a coupe.
