2021 Honda Accord vs. 2021 Toyota Camry in Scarborough, ON
The Honda Accord and Toyota Camry have duked it out for midsize sedan supremacy for many years, and with their 2021 models now on the market, we took the opportunity to compare them. Between its spacious interior, peppy hardware, and engaging drive, the 2021 Accord sits atop its segment yet again this year, and Roadsport Honda is proud to feature it in our showroom for customers in Scarborough and Toronto, Markham, Richmond Hill, and Pickering, Ontario. Find out how it fares against the latest Toyota Camry below, and feel free to consult our detailed 2021 Honda Accord review for more information.
Interior & Exterior
The new Accord joins the market with an elegant, mature exterior design and several notable enhancements that will turn some heads. This midsize car enters its new model year with a revamped grille, available LED headlamps, and some sleek new alloy wheel designs. A sloped roof and striking front end round out the Honda Accord's exterior, one that strikes the perfect balance between sporty and elegant. As for the 2021 Camry, this sedan's exterior suffers like many Toyota models, as its line-heavy front end has proven polarizing with many consumers.
On the inside, the new Accord is roomy, practical, and easy on the eyes. A clean dash design leads this midsize sedan's handsome interior, with cloth upholstery lining its comfortable seats. Heated front and rear seats, ventilated front seats, and a head-up display are just a few of the new Accord's many available comforts, while rear passengers will enjoy ample legroom. This Honda sedan is also generous in trunk space, making easy work of errand runs and longer weekend trips. The latest Camry, by comparison, is spacious and comfortable in its own right, but its lower trims are plagued by a lack of quality materials and a lackluster dash design.
Performance Comparison
The Accord's powertrain lineup includes a pair of peppy turbocharged engines: a 1.5-litre four-cylinder motor with 192 horsepower and a 2.0-litre offering with a formidable 252 horsepower. A smooth automatic transmission pairs perfectly with both these refined engines. Whichever powertrain you choose, you'll enjoy deft handling, light steering, and a well-controlled ride for a dynamic performance that will win the hearts of motoring enthusiasts and family-first drivers alike.
The 2021 Camry's performance, by comparison, carries on the Toyota tradition with a reliable ride, but it doesn't boast much to write home about in terms of dynamics. Its base engine is thrifty and its transmission is smooth enough, but this midsize car offers middling acceleration and little else that makes it a joy to drive. In other words, the 2021 Honda Accord is versatile and engaging, while the new Toyota Camry is workmanlike.

Safety
Both these sedans enter their 2021 model year with excellent safety ratings and a slew of driver-assist functions. The Camry's safety technology is nothing to scoff at, but you'll be hard-pressed to find a more varied suite than the new Honda Accord's. Standard functions include automatic emergency braking, a forward-collision warning system, and a lane-keeping assist function that helps you stay in an optimal lane position and out of harm's way. Rounding out this Honda sedan's safety and driver-assist suite are Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Road Departure Mitigation, and a blind spot monitoring function with a rear cross-traffic alert that offer an extra set of eyes.
