Honda Accord 2016





The Honda Accord has been one of the best-selling cars in the United States for more than two decades. The 2016 Honda Accord is the subject of a light refresh for the venerable sedan and coupe, which is currently in the middle of its ninth generation of production.

The Accord is available as a 4-door sedan and as a 2-door coupe. The sedan comes in six trim levels, from the base LX ($22,105) to Touring ($34,580). The coupe comes in five trim levels, from LX-S ($24,775) to Touring ($34,125). This year, it's also possible to add the Honda Sensing suite of driver assistance technologies to every trim level (except Touring, which already includes Honda Sensing).
Sensing Technology

Honda Sensing is a sophisticated set of passive and active safety features, including Collision Mitigation Braking System, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Assist System, Road Departure Mitigation and Adaptive Cruise Control. Additionally, Honda is making a play for the tech-savvy consumer with its first implementation of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.


Jamming all of this technology into the Accord's dashboard creates a bit of a real estate issue. Honda solves this with dual display screens on upper trim-level vehicles, with one screen at the top of the center stack and one right below it. If you're not using a lot of tech, the screens are often redundant, with the same information available at the same time. It's not an entirely successful approach.
Good Looks and Tailoring

Still, the interior is attractive and nicely designed, with a tasteful mix of high-quality materials and surfaces.

Outside, there's been a bit of a face-lift, with new grille trim, new alloy wheel designs and LED daytime running lights and taillights. LED headlamps are optional (standard on Touring), which further enhance the modern look and function of both the coupe and sedan. Tailoring and trim enhancements on the exterior of the vehicle have resulted in better aerodynamics.

Power and Efficiency

Under the hood, two available engines get matched with both sedan and coupe. There's a 2.4-liter inline 4-cylinder (185 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque) and a 3.5-liter V6 (278 hp and 251-252 lb-ft of torque). A continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) will be the popular choice(6-speed automatic with the V6), but enthusiasts will be happy to hear that a 6-speed manual transmission is available in all 4-cylinder models, and can even be found in the EX-L V6 coupe. All Accord models are front-wheel drive only, for now. The Accord Hybrid is on hiatus this year, but it's said to be returning for 2017.

The EPA estimates that fuel economy in the 4-cylinder Accord Coupe will be 24 miles per gallon in the city and 34 mpg on the highway with the manual transmission and 26 mpg city/35 mpg hwy with the CVT. The Accord Coupe with V6 and 6-speed automatic is rated at 21 mpg city/32 mpg hwy. The manual hasn't been rated yet.

Nissan Juke 2016





In a world where many mass-market cars seem virtually indistinguishable from each other (aside from their badges and a handful of styling cues), you have to give the Nissan Juke credit for being one of the most unique vehicles currently on the road. It has notable shortcomings--and love-it-or-hate-it styling--but at least it’s proudly different and continues to look a bit like a futuristic concept car even five years after it was introduced. A growing number of competitors now includes the Honda HR-V, Chevrolet Trax, Jeep Renegade, Fiat 500X and Mazda CX-3, but the Juke is an entirely different machine even from its fellow compact SUVs. It’s more performance- and driving-oriented than an SUV, and more utility-oriented than a car, so it’s almost in a category of its own--and Nissan probably wanted it that way.




Changes for the 2016 Nissan Juke include added Siri Eyes Free control for iPhones, and factory options include premium paint, an SV Technology Package, and an SV Cold Weather Package. For those who want to add a personal touch to an already distinct automobile, Nissan also offers the Juke Color studio program, allowing customers to individually color their Juke’s wheels, rear spoiler, door handles, sills, headlight trim, and fascia trim. The 2016 Juke comes in five trims: the S, SV, SL, NISMO, and NISMO RS.




Compared to other pint-sized SUVs on the market, the Nissan Juke remains far and away the top dog in terms of performance. While most of its competitors make do with somewhere around 140 hp, the Nissan Juke gets 188 hp from its 1.6-liter turbocharged and direct-injected 4. That power will push the Juke from 0 to 60 mph in a respectable 7 seconds, and all versions are available in either front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). AWD versions get independent rear suspension and FWD Jukes get a somewhat antiquated torsion beam rear end. The range-topping NISMO RS, meanwhile, gets a tweaked version of the I4 that’s good for 215 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. The regular NISMO does have the same engine as the rest of the Juke range, but adds alloy wheels, stiffer suspension, and sport seats. A 6-speed manual is available, but unfortunately only with FWD. Most buyers will therefore end up with a continuously variable transmission (CVT)--FWD Jukes with a CVT can get fuel economy of 28 mpg city/34 highway.




While the Juke is geared more towards fun driving than its competition, it does sit up high like an SUV, so don’t expect it to handle like a GTI. Its steering has been praised for being quick and responsive, however, and SV and SL trims equipped with Nissan’s I-CON adjustable steering and transmission response system come with three driving modes (Eco, Normal, and Sport) that adjust the steering's sharpness. The Juke is also available with torque-vectoring AWD, although any kind of off-roading other than traversing some leaves or a muddy driveway probably isn’t a great idea.




If the Juke sacrifices handling for the sake of its SUV attributes, it also sacrifices practicality in order to take on some of the characteristics of a smaller sporty hatchback. With the rear seats in their normal position, rear cargo space is a fairly dismal 10.5 cubic feet, and even folding the rear seats down only brings cargo space to 35.9 cubic feet total. By comparison, a normal hatchback like a Mazda 3 has about 45 cubic feet. But even so, the Juke does have a certain charm going for it. Passengers access the rear seats by neat hidden exterior door handles, and the contrast stitching, door trim, and swoopy center console make the interior seem like a cool place to be. Some of the switchgear might feel cheap, but, after all, the Juke is a cheap car.




Most modern cars are considered quite safe, and while the Nissan Juke isn’t dangerous by any means, it still doesn’t have a stellar crash test record. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) gave it a Poor rating on the front overlap test (although it did receive a Good rating in every other test) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave it 3 out of 5 stars for the frontal crash test and 4 out of 5 stars overall. Standard safety features for the 2016 Juke include the usual 6 airbags and stability and traction control, and standard on the Juke SL and optional on the SV is the Around View monitoring system with Moving Object Detection. 




It’s hard to put the Nissan Juke into any single category, but the best way to look at it is as a sort of jacked-up sport hatchback; and even though the design is half a decade old, the Juke still looks like it could be a car from 2025.

Nissan Sentra 2016




New for 2016, Nissan has added a Blue Pearl exterior color. The SR model features more sporty options with unique 17-inch forked, five-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, foglights, side sill extensions, a rear spoiler with an integrated LED brake light, and a chrome exhaust tip finisher. The entire Sentra lineup features chrome door handles and window accents along with available heated outside mirrors with integrated turn signals.

Inside, consumers will find an updated design, starting with the steering wheel that draws inspiration from the Nissan 370Z. The automaker now offers a six-way power driver’s seat with power lumbar support on the base SV and SR models, and it comes standard on the SL. The Sentra also features a new center stack design and an updated center console and shift knob, and the seats are wrapped in more upscale fabric.

The infotainment system utilizes a TFT-type LCD flat panel display with better resolution. All models will also receive a 5-inch Advanced Drive-Assist display located between the tachometer and speedometer. New features for the 2016 model year include a soft-touch instrument panel and door armrest. Leather-appointed seats are available, as is a Bose premium audio system, keyless entry and push-button start, a rearview monitor, and dual-zone climate control.

The 2016 Nissan Sentra will be powered exclusively by a 1.8-liter four-cylinder with a six-speed manual transmission on the S model; other models also have the option of an Xtronic transmission with a sub-planetary gear. The updated engine and the CVT system give the Sentra better fuel efficiency. The suspension has also been tuned to provide better handling with a 10 percent increase in spring and damper rates.

For 2016, the Sentra features more safety technology, including NissanConnect Services. This system offers emergency preparedness, remote access, customizable alerts, and more through a SiruisXM subscription. Siri Eyes Free Voice Recognition is also new for the model year and comes standard on the SV, SR, and SL models. For the first time, the Nissan Sentra will now offer available forward emergency braking, intelligent cruise control, blind-spot monitor, and rear cross traffic alert.

The 2016 Nissan Sentra will make its official debut at the 2015 Los Angeles Auto Show before hitting dealers next year with a starting price of $17,605, including destination charges.
