2010 Honda Accord LX
What it Is: A full-size four-door sedan.
Who it's For: Families who prefer a traditional sedan and need no more than two LATCH points.
What's Hot: Roomy interior and Honda's reputation for reliability.
What's Not: Short on features and power compared to EX models.
How It Got Its Score: The Accord's fuel economy and safety scores are good, and the fact that it's a large car helps too. The LX's low price gives it an advantage over the rest of the Accord lineup.
If you're looking for the most Family Friendly sedan out there, then you've found it. With a score of 8.3 thanks to its (relatively) low price, roomy interior and excellent fuel economy, the Accord LX offers up plenty for any shopper. However, for just a little more money you can get into an Accord EX, which offers more features and a more powerful engine with no fuel economy penalty. Overall the EX is a better long-term value, but if you want a big sedan with the best Family Friendliness score you can get, then this is it.
