While Consumer Reports recommends both the 2020 Mazda6 and the 2020 Honda Accord as reliable, safety-conscious, and top-performing vehicles, there are still some key differences between the two. While our dealers at Peruzzi Mazda are a bit partial towards the Mazda model, we’ll let these stats speak for themselves.
Safety Features
One feature that the 2020 Mazda6 includes that the 2020 Honda Accord does not is whiplash reducing headrests. These headrests use a special design to protect the driver and front passenger from whiplash in the event of an accident. During a rear-end collision, this can mean the difference between a major neck or spine injury, or the ability to walk away unscathed.
The Mazda6 Signature version also has a standard 360-Degree View Monitor to allow the driver to see objects all around the vehicle on a screen. The 2020 Honda Accord only offers a rear monitor and front and rear parking sensors that beep or flash a light, which doesn’t help in detecting obstacles on the sides of the car.
However, both the Mazda6 and the Honda Accord offer many similar safety features, including:
- Front seatbelt pretensioners
- Height adjustable front shoulder belts
- Four-wheel anti-lock brakes
- Traction control and electronic stability
- Crash mitigating brakes
- Daytime running lights
- Lane departure warning systems
- Rearview cameras
Comfort Amenities
The 2020 Mazda6 also has a lot of convenience perks that you won’t find in the competing model. All front and rear windows can be controlled with just one touch up and down, which is majorly convenient on the road. The power window and cruise control switches are back lit, which makes them easier to operate at night.
The Mazda6 also includes rain-sensing wipers, adaptive headlights to see around corners, automatic dimming mirrors, and a heated steering wheel. None of these features are included in the Honda Accord.
