Japan's exterior dimension rules made the Rafaga a compact sedan that took over from the previous Accord, which had grown slightly in size, and it sent compact sedan buyers to Honda Verno and Honda Primo locations; it continued through 1996. The wheelbase of the Rafaga was 35 mm shorter than the Inspire and Vigor, which left little room for rear seat passengers and hurt sales. The sources used for this page record no change specific to the 1996 model year, so this page claims none.
