Accord Hybrid Touring
Purchased two weeks ago and so far so good. Fuel economy is around 42mpg --mostly city driving. The fit and finish is pretty darn good for the money. The car is good looking and not a Prius (but has the mpg performance). The only disappointments so far are the passenger side front seat does not have same adjustment capability as driver seat (seat base does not go up or down) and (IMHO) the Navigation is not intuitive and should be 100% voice interfaced. Nav not worth the money. Perhaps an app interface with Waze or Google maps similar to existing Pandora interface? Future adds: A rear seat access power plug/usb and rear thermostat for climate control would be nice . Also a driver seat vibrating lane departure warning would be perfect .... The lack of trunk space is not too bad. Others have complained about the CVT transmission/motor noise-- It has been a non issue for us. Performance and acceleration are good. Rear Seat leg room is exceptionally good. Over all we are happy with purchase and look forward to more drive time. Winter traction and over all cold weather performance will be in follow up review....stay tuned. UPDATE 10/8/2017 Its been over a year and my wife loves the car. Performance in the snow was better than expected. Traction control works well. Have not reset the MPG computer and it reads 37 mpg over all. Gas mileage is not competitive compared to a Prius etc. No mechanical or electrical issues. The advertised mpg of 50/45 is bologna. That said --The Accord is still a really great value and a sharp looking car. UPDATE 4/22/2019 Mileage 31,000. MPG average varies between 29-39mpg. Have not touched the Mileage computer since purchase of vehicle.. Again overall mpg is nothing near 50mpg. OEM tires holding up well along with seats and interior over all. Factory Battery just bit the dust -- which is not unexpected. Other than that change the oil, rotate tires and put gas in it. We will probably never sell this car..... it will be given to our kids in the next couple of years. Super reliable, safe and good looking vehicle. Highly recommend. 12/10/2020. Mileage 48k. Mpg is 33 average since purchased. A little hiccup in the windshield well/gutter that is supposed to drain water. Gutter became clogged and water came in passenger front side just under glove box. Took to have repaired-- $600. All carpet removed, cleaned and dried out. TO AVOID this problem open the hood and vacuum out gutter at least 4 times a year. If you do not open the hood , you cannot see half of the gunk in the windshield gutter well. OEM tires have had it. Replaced with Continental PureContact LS- - excellent tire in the rain and way better than OEM in the snow. Very sticky tire. Might be a tad more road noise on the highway. Still very satisfied with the Accord overall. Update 12/11/2021. Deja Vu water leaking in through bottom of Glovebox (see above incident). $700 to clean and dry out Accord again. Car has been basically Garage kept since last year leak incident. Decided to offload the car as water issues spooked us. We loved this car except for above. Took it to Carmax and was given an unbelievable high amount for it . Took that and bought a used Lexus ES300 Hybrid. Cost us about $2k to do the switch. Should have bought this car originally. Same as Accord except more bells, Whistles, better stereo, quieter, better ride and more standard safety features. Buy this car instead. 100% worth the money. Unfortunately we will probably avoid Honda products going forward. 6/22 Lexus is great. No issues. Sorry Honda did not workout.

Best Hybrid on the Market
I'm in love with my Accord Hybrid for one reason - It drives and feels like any other Honda Accord. I read a ton of reviews about this car prior to purchasing especially regarding the fuel economy. The fuel economy all comes down to how you drive. I'm averaging 48.7 mpg after 17k miles on the car. The car does OK in true traffic, but it really shines in stop/go ish traffic on highways at low speeds. I live in DC and this car does exceedingly well in the traffic conditions here. With that said - it does not perform well on long highway trips (drove to FL and got 37mpg). Overall this is a car that drives like any other Honda Accord and I could not be happier with my purchase. Almost three years in, still the best bar I've owned. Only issue is that they had to replace the audio unit at 30k miles.

Honda over states gas mileage to sell this car
I have owned this car for 3 months and driven 5000 miles, both highway and city, in good weather. I have never reset trip B since I purchased car, the computer gas mileage for the 5000 miles on trip B is only 38.2mpg, also have never gotten over 38 mpg when monitoring at each fill up, in fact mpg is as low as 35 mpg. We have the economy button on and drive very conservatively, still only 38 mpg. Far from the 50 mpg city and 47 mpg overall. Obviously they are not being honest with their customers and they know it, I'm sure I'm only one of many that have complained to them. Had I known this, I would have just purchased a non hybrid Honda Accord, which would probably not be far off on mpg I'm actually getting with the hybrid. Also when accelerating on any type of grade under 40 mph, the engine revs and the feeling is like a slipping transmission or clutch.

Not bad - except the engine noise
I have this car for 2 months now, and there are something I really like this car and something I really don't like. Pros - Great fuel mileages in a 50+ degree day, 40+ MPG is not a question. - Good looking interior and exterior. - Drive like a normal car with plenty of power. Cons - The engine noise is loud in a low speed. - Hybrid is NOT good for cold day. I only get like 15 MPG for a very cold day ( 0 degree). - I hate the noise when I stop at stop sign/red light, the car sometimes will switch from engine to EV, then will switch back to Engine. it scares me when the engine starts up again. - NO Spare tire (I ended up buying a OEM spare tire - for $100)
My MPG Experience
I purchased a 2015 Accord Hybrid EX-L in January 2015. Overall, I have been very pleased with my purchase to date. Foremost is the great gas mileage. What I have observed as weather has warmed, my gas mileage has improved. I commute mostly interstate for 17 miles one way. This past week I have been averaging closer to 60 MPG every trip. Lowest being 57.4, highest being 62.1 MPG. I have observed setting the cruise control helps (around 60 mph). In cooler months, averages were upper 40s to low 50s mpg. Notably, my mileage is pretty close to my daughter's new Prius. The Accord, however is a much larger, handsome, comfortable and overall impressive car.
