Inside the cabin, you’ll wonder whether you’re sitting in a sedan or a concert hall, thanks to the optional Harman Kardon® premium audio system’s luxurious notes.

The new 2023 Volkswagen Arteon is no stranger to winning — but apparently, the all-new 2023 Honda Accord is. The Volkswagen Arteon pulls ahead in categories of performance, convenience, comfort and technology. Check out the differences in power and handling — the Volkswagen Arteon produces 300 horsepower, while the Honda Accord can’t even make it to 200 horsepower on a good day. The Honda Accord is only equipped with front-wheel drive, while the Volkswagen Arteon offers optional 4MOTION® AWD w/ Active Control & Driving Mode Selection. You’ll find the Volkswagen Arteon model’s standard Hands-free Easy Open & Easy Close remote power rear hatch more helpful than the Honda Accord model’s basic remote trunk release, which forces Honda owners to press a button on their key fob to open the hatch. Inside the Volkswagen Arteon, you’ll love that a Climatronic® Touch three-zone automatic climate control system, heated front seats and wireless charging are all standard. Honda Accord shoppers will have to upgrade to the EX trim to receive heated front seats, but all that’s available is a dual-zone automatic climate control system (which has one less zone than the system in the Volkswagen Arteon). Wireless charging is not an option with this year’s Honda Accord.
