Expert Reply:
Curt trailer hitch # C11681 will fit your 2013 Honda Accord sedan. The engine size does not matter. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you to view.
If you plan on doing some towing then the correct ball mount is # C45521 and pin and clip # PC2. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring if your Accord has LED tail light use # C56173. If you do not have LED lights use # C56011.
If you are planning on using the hitch for something like a bike rack or cargo carrier than make sure that the item is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Curt also recommends the use of stabilization strap # 18050 for any non-trailer load. The strap is meant to relieve some of the stress on the trailer hitch.
