While both the 2021 Chrysler 300 and the 2021 Honda Accord come with the same advanced smartphone integration features (Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), there are some major differences between the two operating systems.
Â
First, the Chrysler 300 comes standard with Uconnect 4C. As a high-tech multimedia hub, you can stream your favourite songs, listen to over 200 ad-free channels via satellite radio, and communicate with friends and loved ones without taking your hands off the wheel. Displayed on an 8.4-inch touchscreen, this infotainment unit also comes with a complimentary 1-year subscription to SiriusXM Guardian, dual USB ports, an auxiliary input jack, and a 6-speaker stereo.
Â
Meanwhile, the Honda Accord isn’t so lucky. It uses a smaller 8-inch monitor and is void of any satellite radio functions on the LX, Sport, and Sport SE models. It only has four speakers well. So, the music experience won’t be as immersive. In order for the Accord to truly compete against the 300, you’d have to look at the top-tier trims. That means you’ll end up paying more.

When it comes to power, it is hard to beat the 2021 Chrysler 300 models. These sedans have been tailored for fun, offering two segment-defining engines that leave the competition struggling to keep pace; and, while the 2021 Honda Accord also offers dual powertrains, its output pales in comparison.
Â
Popping the hood of the Chrysler 300, you will find either a 3.6-litre V6 or a 5.7-litre V8. The first pumps out 292 to 300 hp and 260 to 264 lb-ft of torque, and the second produces 363 hp and 394 lb-ft of torque. Both motors are partnered with the same 8-speed automatic transmission from TorqueFlite - which assures a nimble experience on the highway.
Â
Meanwhile, the Honda Accord can be equipped with one of two units as well. The standard 1.5-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder generates 192 hp and is mated with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). However, the Sport 2.0T and Touring trims both get the 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder. This one uses a 10-speed and produces 252 hp - leaving BC drivers feeling underwhelmed.Â
