Performance Specs
Plenty of available power is of course paramount in most buyers' minds and something the Accord has plenty of. The base model Accord comes with a 185 horsepower 2.4 liter inline four cylinder engine chosen for its ability to provide rapid acceleration. For those who want more power, there is an available 3.5 liter V6 that pumps out an impressive 278 horsepower.
The base level 2015 Ford Fusion offers a slightly larger 2.5 liter inline four cylinder engine. However, this engine is only capable of 175 horsepower, something you are sure to notice when trying to pass on the open road. You can also choose a turbocharged 2.0 liter inline four cylinder, but even this engine is only capable of producing 240 horsepower. Both versions come up short in overall power and acceleration when it counts.
