2018 to 2022. The 2018 model year brought a new platform and turbocharged four-cylinder engines in place of the old naturally aspirated V6, along with a much better cabin and a lower, wider stance. Earlier cars are cheap and durable but plainly of the previous decade. The nameplate was refreshed again in the early 2020s with new screens and driver-assistance hardware.
The Toyota Camry costs similar money and is the easier car to sell on, with 13% showing an engine, gearbox, suspension or steering fault against the 18% we would expect for Kingdom sedans of the same age and mileage — concede that and buy the Accord for the way it drives. The Hyundai Sonata is cheaper but carries previous body repair on 68% of inspections against the 55% expected for its own age and mileage group. The Honda Civic is the smaller, cheaper Honda.
This is the block that should make you shortlist one. Only 7% of the Honda Accords we inspect in Saudi Arabia show interior staining, against the 12% we would expect for sedans of the same age and mileage in the Kingdom, and just 4% show an electrical or electronics fault against the 8% expected for that class. Cabin and electrics are what a Kingdom summer punishes hardest, and this car comes through both. Spend your attention on the gearbox and the turbo service record instead.
