What we are expecting to see in Honda Accord Sport 2022 Car

 



 



 It stands out from the bunch with cool-looking 19-inch wheels and a more powerful 252 hp 2.0L Turbo engine.


Honda Accord is by far the second most successful and recognized nameplates in the Automobile industry just after the Honda Civic. A well-rounded entry-level sedan that is high on comfort and practicality is what has helped the Honda Accord stand tall over all these years. The 2021 Honda Accord continues in the same shoes and gets a much-needed refresh. But these updates do come with a shock. especially pulling the plug on its manual transmission. We had hopes of Honda holding it on the 2021 Accord Sport at least. But that didn't go as expected.


Nevertheless, changes are needed and some bold ones come and go. Enthusiastic drivers will be in for a shallow run with the manual transmission now gone, but the 2022 Honda Accord Sport still is the most insanely valued full-sized entry-level sedan in the segment. It continues to be based on the 10th Gen that was introduced in 2018. Using the peppier 1.5L turbo unit, the 2021 Honda Accord Sport tackles the likes of Toyota Camry And Nissan Altima.


The 2021 Honda Accord Sport is priced at $27,230. It stands out from the bunch with cool-looking 19-inch wheels and a more powerful 252 hp 2.0L Turbo engine.


Pricing And Stand-Out Features

The 2022 Accord Sport manages to tickle the aesthetic side, at least on the aesthetic front. The discontinuation of its manual transmission is still a shocker as it would have been a saving clause for the "Sporty" Accord. But Honda has vouched for exterior design cues and heightened interior features to give the Accord Sport an edge over its trim-mates.


The major stand-out feature is its more powerful 2.0L Turbo inline-4 motor that packs 252 horses and could have been hoon to drive about, if not for the dearth of a manual transmission. The CVT sure is more fuel-efficient as compared to the manual or Automatics, but where is the fun in that! Apart from this, it gets a few notable exterior design cues, the most prominent of therm being its distinctive alloy wheels - 17-inchers on the Sport trim and 19-inchers on the Sport Special Edition.


 Honda also continues to pack a chunkier 2.0L Turbo Inline-4 that pumps out 252 hp and is slapped on with a slicker and more enthusiastic 10-Speed Automatic transmission. This engine is the one to go for if you are keen on the "Sport" trim. The 1.5L unit is cool enough but packs a CVT that is keener on providing you with heightened MPG figures only.

 Comfortable Interior

The 2022 Accord Sport doesn't get any distinctive "Sporty" features but it sure has a fair share of heightened bits. The most notable update for 2022 is the standardization of the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment screen that was earlier optional. Honda packs goodies like a 12-way power-adjustable driver, heated seats, and leather upholstery for the higher side of the Sport trim.


Dual-Zone automatic climate control is powerful enough to cater to the impressively spacious cabin of the Accord Sport. The second-row seating is specifically worth the effort and Honda leads the segment in terms of the seating layout.


Sport Special Edition trim actually differs from the standard one in the interior layout notably. It adds wireless support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also, heated and cooled front seats are exclusive to the Special Edition model. Apart from that it also gets a moonroof and heightened safety features that include a Blind Spot Information system, Rear Cross-traffic Alert, and parking sensors.



Sharper Exterior With Refreshed Front Fascia

Honda has revamped the exterior design of the 2022 Accord with a sharper front fascia. That is the only update to have occurred but it sure makes all the difference. The Accord gets a redesigned front grille that gives it a wider and stanced look. The grille has been redone to house Honda's Radar Sensing system. Along with it, the headlamps also flaunt the "waterfall" design with all-LED high and low-beam integration.



Honda claims that the new lighting setup offers more illumination. Chrome treatment has been bumped up as well but is not overdone to be an eyesore. The other notable update or differentiating factor of the 2022 Honda Accord Sport is its choice of sick-looking wheels, which are either 17 or 19-inchers with a distinctive blade-design. The 19-inch wheels get black inserts whereas the 17-inch is silver. Apart from this, a subtle yet evident decklid spoiler amplifies its sporty appeal.


Release Date And Warranty

The 2022 Honda Accord Sport and Sport Special Edition are already on sale and can be booked right away. Honda has managed to keep the flame lit and the 2022 Accord rises above its competitors with a practical and well-rounded approach. The omission of its 6-Speed Manual transmission is surely a bummer, especially keeping the Sport trims in mind, but the 10-Speed Auto caters for a potent replacement option. Apart from all of these, it remains one of the most reliable cars, and the 2022 Accord packs a warranty package that includes:


Standard Warranty of 3 yrs. / 36,000 mi.

Powertrain Warranty of 5 yrs. / 60,000 miles

"I demand an unconditional apology and withdrawal of the TTAG's letter" - Sallah Emmanuel

As a concerned member of the College of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG), I demand an unconditional apology and withdrawal of the letter from the Teacher Trainees Association of Ghana (TTAG) requesting CETAG members to return to the lecture halls amidst our ongoing strike action. TTAG's letter is a blatant disregard for our rights and undermines our legitimate demands for better working conditions, fair compensation, and a conducive learning environment. Their actions are divisive and aim to break our resolve. We will not be swayed or intimidated. We demand respect and solidarity from our fellow education stakeholders, including TTAG. I call on TTAG to: 1. Apologize unconditionally for their letter 2. Withdraw their letter immediately 3. Publicly declare their support for CETAG's demands 4. Join us in demanding meaningful dialogue with the government to address our grievances Anything less would be a betrayal of our shared interests and the future o...

Ghana's Colleges of Education Lecturers Strike Reaches 7th Week Amidst Stalemate

BACKGROUND   Ongoing Dispute Over Teachers' Service Conditions: 2021 Negotiations Unresolved 1. In August, 2021, Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG) and Fair Wages and Salaries Commission (FWSC) started negotiations on Conditions of Service (CoS) to be concluded in November, 2021 and take effect from January 2022. 2. FWSC deliberately delayed the negotiations which led to a strike action by CETAG in December, 2021. 3. On 10th January, 2023, GTEC invited CETAG leadership to a meeting to discuss the issues which led to the strike action.   4. CETAG called off the strike action immediately after the meeting because the government team gave assurance that FWSC shall resume the negotiations and conclude immediately. 5. Sadly, after CETAG called off the strike in January 2022, the FWSC continued to deliberately delay the negotiations which led to another strike action by CETAG in December 2022.  6. On 7th December, 2022, the Hon. Minister...

"We need TTAG to rather address the government than adressing CETAG" - Tornyegbedo Emmanuel

As a concerned student of Peki College of Education, I humbly ask: What specific action does TTAG expect CETAG to take in addressing the ongoing issues regarding teachers' incentives and the impact on students' education?   I think this is the time we need TTAG to rather address the government than adressing CETAG. TTAG should  protest for the government to pay our lecturers their rightful incentive rather than appealing to CETAG as if they are the ones at fault. Nevertherless I am not trying to be bias.  Imagine if it were to be any other profession that threatened the government with strike, government will not hesitate to settle them but when it comes to teachers, the government will be playing back and forth game with them. The fact that this strike took this long means that first the government does not have any or little regard for the teachers and secondly,  the government does not care about us the students if not,  the government would have s...
