Honda Accord 2.4 S AT (White Pearl) (2015) vs Isuzu mu-X LS-A 4×2 3.0 AT (2018): which should you buy?
For a Filipino buyer weighing a midsize sedan against a compact SUV, the choice hinges on budget, power delivery and intended use. The 2015 Honda Accord 2.4 S AT costs ₱1,760,000, slightly cheaper than the 2018 Isuzu mu‑X LS‑A 4×2 3.0 AT at ₱1,845,000. The Accord delivers 175 PS and 225 Nm, while the mu‑X’s 3.0‑L turbo diesel produces a marginally higher 177 PS but a substantially larger torque figure of 380 Nm, giving it better low‑end pull for load‑carrying or hill climbs. The mu‑X is a current‑model SUV with a 4‑door layout, 2+3 seating and a longer wheelbase (4825 mm) that offers higher ground clearance and more cargo space, suitable for families or buyers needing extra versatility. The Accord, a discontinued sedan, provides a refined FWD driving feel and a 5‑speed automatic, appealing to those who prioritize sedan comfort, slightly lower purchase price and a proven gasoline engine. Both share the same 100,000 km/3‑year warranty. If you need an SUV for occasional trips, extra seating and stronger torque, the mu‑X is the better fit despite the higher price. If you prefer a classic sedan, marginally cheaper price and comfortable daily commuting, the Accord remains a solid option.
