800 miles per tank!
Lifetime 49.7 MPG over 58,000 miles driven. Regularly get 800 miles per 15 gallon tank. Easy 52 MPG in summer and shoulder spring/fall seasons, 44 MPG in winter. Zero issues with maintenance or reliability. I always drive in regen-B mode.The key for this car is the 43 - 58 mph sweet spot. The more time you spend in this range, the more the car rewards. You can do 62/63 mph without too much penalty (minus 1 or 2 mpg), but not 68/69 mph (minus 5 - 7 mpg). My commute is 30+ miles each way, mostly on posted 45 to 55 mph roads. The only cons, as others have mentioned, are the lack of spare tire and small-ish trunk. I've had one flat, which was a pain - had to call AAA, time consuming, etc and I've had to work around the the lack of trunk space a couple of times, but that hasn't caused delay or changed my overall trip in any way. Great car overall - if you want Prius mileage with Accord sedan looks and upgraded trim ( I have EX-L with leather seats/moonroof/etc).

Great car with some qalifications
First if all entertainment system sounds great, DD player is essentially useless other than to play CD's, will not save anything. Playing with flash drive is cumbersome, I bought an iPod Nano and it is infinitely easier. Honda needs some new engineers, this is unacceptable. Dealer shrugged his shoulders so I'll try once more then contact Honda directly. Car handles great, reasonably quiet when not accelerating (pronounced whine). Mileage very temperature dependent, heater is electric, heater warming cab, no EV.

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.

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.
Love Driving This Car!
I purchased a used car that had previously been on a three-year lease. The car looked brand new inside and out (person had taken very good car of the car). I was initially concerned the car would not have good pick-up, but a test drive at the dealership dispelled that fear. I have had five Accords, and the body style on this one is really, really sharp. No one would know this car is used unless I pointed out the minor imperfections or they followed body style updates closely. I had been driving a 2007 V-6 Accord, so this is a big step-up in technology and features for me. A word about fuel economy: while I'm not getting the advertised 47-50 mpg, I am also not burning pure gasoline, which is what the EPA uses to determine fuel-economy estimates. At my next fill-up I plan to get 100% gasoline and see how that changes the fuel economy of the car. Pros: roomy interior, right turn signal camera, back up camera, body style, heated seats, auto power up on both front windows, Bluetooth, memory seats, fuel savings, smooth ride, excellent handling. Cons: smaller trunk, no spare tire, no trunk pass-through, engine noise Bottom line: the good FAR outweighs the bad on this car, and I'm very pleased with it. I love driving it and trying to get as much mileage as I can on a tank of gas. I still have my Accord V-6 if I want power; the Hybrid is my "luxury" car. Most of all, I love that it's a hybrid that doesn't look weird. Yes, the Prius has grown on me, but it still has an alien look to it. Honda has done a much better job at producing Hybrids (Accord and the updated Insight) that look good and still get good fuel economy. Honda has not disappointed me with the car, and for now I remain a loyal fan of the brand.
