How much does it cost to maintain a Honda Accord?
I was thinking about buying a new car this Christmas to treat myself for having such a productive year. I know I can handle the cost of the vehicle itself, but I have no idea how much I should budget for other expenses like oil changes and tires. How much will I spend on maintenance for a car?

“Heck yeah! Productivity should always be rewarded, and a car is a fantastic reward (in my opinion).
To maintain a newer Honda Accord or similar sedan, you’re only looking at about $400 per year.
Accords don’t typically need
repairs
as often as other cars, which makes them extremely cost-effective vehicles to own.However, keep in mind that repair and maintenance costs do tend to increase as your car ages and its odometer ticks upward. But hopefully, your vehicle will be paid off in a couple of years, so you’ll have room in your budget down the road to take care of issues should they arise.
If you’re looking to save even more on car expenses, the

app is a good place to start. Jerry does all the hard work of finding the cheapest car insurance quotes from top name-brand providers and delivering the best deals straight to your phone in minutes.”View full answer
