Awright you tech guys......
On 90-95 Honda Accords, What does LX, EX or DX have to do with performance, or was this an interior package designation?
Were the seats wide butt luxury in the LX and bucket seats in the others?

I do know that LXi means injected LX, therefore the "i" separates
carbs vs Fuel Injection.....

Can you point me to a spot in the archives to find this?
What do you think? Thanks. -Bob

 

Like all or most Hondas, it is mostly luxury.
I don't have time to look for all the stuff now, but DX is the base model, LX is the middle model, EX is the top of the line. Here's a basic search
90-93 Autotrader says the DX and LX models had 125hp, the EX had 140hp.
94-95 I believe introduced the SOHC Vtec F22 on the EX. The DX and LX jumped to 130hp, the EX had 145hp, then there's also a V6 auto here somewhere.

Most of the number differences could only be changes in the way they rated the engines. Someone could shed some more light to this topic.

 

just from the top of my head, im pretty sure im 99.5% accurate on it all.

1990-1993 all SOHC non vtec

all Lx's came with rear drums, no sun roof, f22a1 motor which is 125hp cloth interior
Ex's came with rear discs, sun roof, f22a6 135hp? cloth interior/ same maybe leather?
Dx, came with drums, no cruise control, no sun roof f22a1 cloth interior
i dont remember what the SE came with, but had leather. and the f22a1 i believe..just an upgraded LX.

some very with power locks, power windows.
all seats and interior design is the same.
95-?
some come with f22b(ex?),SOHC vtec motors and some V6 in the EX models..
interior and other still the same with the 5th gen.

 

Some also came with better/worse suspension than other modles.

 

DX, LX, EX packages vary from generation to generation so a more specific year would allow a better answer. Generally speaking the EX got suspension, braking, and power improvements in addtion to sunroof and other interior upgrades.
some later years the difference is only marginal such as alloy wheels vs steelies.

90+ accord were all fuel injected (carbs were 89 and before)

90-95 dx models had no power windows, locks, or mirrors, no cruise control, no factory radio or speakers and no factory air conditioning(radio and a/c were added in at the dealer)
90-95 ex added sunroof and "improved fabrics" to lx interior package

90-95 ex models had 15" alloy wheels vs 14" steelies for dx, lx

90-91 ex had upgraded exhaust for 10HP over dx, lx
92-93 ex models had dual stage intake manifold and exhaust upgrade for 15HP over dx, lx
94-95 ex models added VTEC to intake side for 20HP

92+ ex models had added ABS with rear discs vs no abs/ rear drums for dx,lx

95 added V6 option with different set of upgrades
