In the looks department, the 2012 Honda Accord midsize sedan falls short when compared to competitors like the Kia Optima, Hyundai Sonata and even the Toyota Camry, according to Cars.com Family contributor Carrie Kim. This family sedan needs a makeover; luckily it’s due to get a redesign for the 2013 model year. Carrie was pleased with the Accord’s optional V-6 engine and thought it added a sporty feel to her weeklong test drive.
