Malaysia gets a new 2.0L VT-i Honda Accord

The Malaysian market got a new Honda Accord variant today, with a less powerful 2.0L VTi engine but more equipment under its sleeve.

The new variant comes with leather interiors, cruise control, an 8-way electrically-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support, leather door linings and door mirrors with turn signals. Priced at RM149,800 OTR, it offers better value for money than the 2.4L model(RM171,800) but only with one compromise, ‘Umph’.

Honda is also offering a new colour called Taffeta White for the Accord range. There is also a Stolen Vehicle Recovery (SVR) system available as an optional extra. It is a GPS and GSM based security system which can transmit the car’s GPS coordinates to a central operating center via the mobile network, so that the owner is aware of the car’s location.
