- In 2003, an advertising agency made a Honda commercial by creating a Rube Goldberg machine out of Accord parts. It required 606 takes to get it right and received more awards from television and advertising industries than any commercial in history.
- In 2004, Honda assembled a team of automotive experts in Germany to test the capabilities of the diesel-powered Honda Accord 2.2 i-CTDi Sport on a closed track. The car broke 19 land speed records.
- In 2011, Joe Cicero of Maine drove hi 1997 Honda Accord over one million times, all on the original engine and transmission. That's like making a round-trip drive from the Earth to the Moon twice. Honda celebrated the milestone by giving him a parade and a new 2013 Accord.
- The 2014 Plug-In Hybbrid Honda Accord will get 115 miles per galloon and will be the very first car to meet the LEV3/SULEV20 emission standars, the strictest standard in the U.S.
