Everyone has the perception that Accord is more spacious, but how much? Is it really significantly bigger?

I've sat in both Accord & Civic before. There is a difference - Accord more spacious & feels more "airy". But not very significantly more space. Significant would stepping into the new Merc S Class after coming out from our Civic, hehe...

The difference is insignificant to me but u ' know' and feel bigger as if compare 7th Gen civic with 8th Gen civic . Difference in the car cabin in its width , height , length etc by 4 - 6 inches is barely noticeable to layman . Unless u compare a Honda Stream vs Honda Oddysey , then right away u can tell the difference .

Overall interior dimension:
Accord is slightly bigger than Civic. Longer by 5cm, higher by 2cm and wider by 3cm
Accord interior length = 1950mm
Civic interior length = 1900mm
Accord interior height = 1190mm
Civic interior height = 1170mm
Accord interior width = 1500mm
Civic interior width = 1470mm

Front seat capacity:
Civic's headroom is slightly roomier than Accord, by 2cm.
Knee to hip space = 500mm (Civic = Accord)
hip to ceiling space = 975mm (Civic)
hip to ceiling space = 945mm (Accord)

Seat size:
Accord's front seat is slightly wider by 1cm
Seat width = 505mm (Civic)
Seat width = 515mm (Accord)

Back seats:
Accord is slightly roomier than Civic. Leg room no difference for left/right seats, but 1.5cm bigger for Accord's center seat. Accord's headroom is 2.5cm taller overall for left/right center seats.

Knee to hip space = 495mm (Civic = Accord for left/right seats)
Knee to hip space = 440mm (Civic center seat)
Knee to hip space = 455mm (Accord center seat)

Hip to ceiling space = 910mm (Civic left/right seats)
Hip to ceiling space = 935mm (Accord left/right seats)
Hip to ceiling space = 890mm (Civic center seat)
Hip to ceiling space = 915mm (Accord center seat)

Seat Size:
Accord's back seat is wider by 4.5cm.
Seat width = 1360mm (Accord)
Seat width = 1315mm (Civic)

Looks like the sportier design for Civic had sacrificed a little room for the back seats. We should not feel any difference at the front seats of the Civic.

So, Civic design is really targetted for young couples or young families.

cheers.
