Used 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid Sedan Consumer Reviews
My second one
The '15 Touring is my second iMMD Accord in a row. I put 33K miles on a '14 in about 11 months, so I traded to a '15. The cars are identical except in color, old one was red the new one is a dark metallic silver which looks much nicer. My circumstances changed, and for the two years I've only put 20K miles on the '15, so it's brand new. The car is complex, the doodahs are stupid -as such doodahs are for all cars. I disabled Adaptive Cruise Control, all nanny warnings, the whole works.... so I DRIVE the car. What is really good about this car is how EV like it is... gobs of immediate torque off the line... instantly.... smoothness of the drivetrain... it's silky. In the '14 we took some long trips and, cruising at 78mph, achieved almost 600 miles per tank, even going over the mountain passes on the Western I5 from SoCal to the Puget Sound. We had to stop for pit stops, not gas. Now, the trunk is a bit small, so we had to pack it tight once for Christmas Gifts but it was big enough for another trip to wine country. Indeed we love this car, but we're going to sell it because we're on the list for a Honda Fuel Cell Clarity. We have not had any real issues.... driving into the sun for long times (as in the evening) does confuse the ACC camera and will generate errors... they go away when it cools off. But, I don't use ACC, so it's no big deal for me. The interior is very comfortable as well.

Lots of smiles and miles in a Honda Accord Hybrid
If you don't like going to gas stations and you like a comfortable cruiser, this is the right vehicle. I drive to Pittsburgh several days a week and bought this car as opposed to a Camry Hybrid because of the better gas mileage. I have not been disappointed. I average 44 MPG on my trips from home into Pittsburgh and that is running at least 70 MPH on the way. Its fun to sit in traffic and see the average MPG go up because of the electric motor. Short trips to and from town are all easily over 50 MPG and if I try to milk it more, I can do much better. My wife and I drove from Morgantown, WV to Chattanooga, TN before we needed to stop for gas. 600 + miles on a tank is the norm. The worst MPG that I have ever gotten was 39 MPG on a tank or two in the dead of winter (mileage is not as good in the winter). The car is very quiet (forget what others say about noise. It is a little noisy when doing a quick acceleration from a stop, but its not a big deal and goes away as soon as you reach cruising speed.) and the car rides very well. The handling could be a little better, but its not bad. There are three sacrifices that you make. One is that the legroom for front seat passenger is a little less than would be expected, two is that the trunk space suffers because of the battery pack, and three is the lack of a spare tire. I had a flat last week and the repair kit didn't work. Honda Roadside Assistance was not too good and I ended up having AAA tow the car back to the dealership where we ordered a replacement tire. I plan on buying a spare and jack and putting them in the trunk. The controls are laid out well and are easy to use, everything is within reach, and the sound system is very good. I have had no problems other than the flat since I bought the car and service has been limited to oil changes (synthetic) and tire rotations. My EX-L does not have Navigation and the car has no transmission (believe me you won't miss it and you can use the B setting for regenerative braking to slow down on long grades), so both of those were rated N/A as was resale value. I would expect it to be very good. I would definitely buy another Accord Hybrid. Update of 11/2019 - I recently passed 70,000 miles. I grew up around cars in my Dad's Chevrolet dealership and I can honestly say that this may be the best vehicle that I have had. I am also very glad that I purchased this car before they removed the CD Player - a bad move for all of these carmakers. I continue to get great gas mileage and routinely get over 50 mpg driving from home to town and back. I did buy a compact spare and a jack, but of course, I have never had any more trouble since. This is an outstanding driving and riding vehicle and it is probably all the car that I will ever need.

Great looks & Performance
Acceleration is great but engine is a bit noisy. Mileage is excellent. No maintenance problems whatsoever. Basque Pearl Red is a great color...many nice comments about how the car looks.

smooth with some bumps...
this "rare" car runs well with reasonable acceleration. a comfortable ride, has decent mph around town and on the road (expect far less mph on the highway) and sports a nice array of technology .Although I think honda shortchanged consumers with skimping on design changes .. i,e. no compass , no spare, small trunk to add some other features..i.e. automatic seat adjustment and lane change feature but overall this mid grade hybrid still offers a comfortable ride, and better styling/lines than the "wide mouth" Toyotas.. overall very nice car.

Great new Accord
It's very roomy and comfortable, and the body style change looks great. It obviously doesn't have the acceleration of my BMW but it does well once on the road. I'm not a huge fan of the lane departure tool in town, but it would be great if you're driving a long haul.
