HONDA ACCORD V6

HONDA    ACCORD V6 is a fabulous car which fulfills all middleclass requirements.Honda Siel Cars India launched an advanced version of its premium sedan Accord V6 with a 3.5 litre i-VTEC engine.The Honda Accord V6 is likely to be priced at Rs 20 lakhs.







There are two important things which are given prime importance in HONDA V6.
FIRSTLY:  VCM or Variable Cylinder Management in Honda speak is a technology that shuts down selected cylinders to conserve fuel when driven gently over city roads and highways. The engine resorts to a four cylinder or even three cylinder operations there by cutting off the fuel supply when subjected to light throttle inputs. When more power is needed, the engine resumes operation of all its six cylinders. It all sounds brilliant but there are one or two issues with this.

One the engine could vibrate when it runs on 3 or 4 cylinders in the same way when one or more of the spark plugs on your four cylinders are fouled.
Secondly, even if the vibrations are taken care of, there could be a booming noise inside the cabin especially during 3cyl operations.
SO just enjoy your voyage with HONDA V6
