PETALING JAYA: Honda Malaysia has announced that it has managed to record over 920 bookings for its 10th-generation Accord.

The latest Accord is available in two variants starting with the standard 1.5 TC with an on-the-road price without insurance and sales tax of RM178,203 (Platinum White Pearl colour +RM364).
The flagship 1.5 TC-P is priced similarly at RM187,390 which also incurs an additional RM364 to have it coated in Platinum White Pearl as well.
