So, I've read a lot of reviews and I'll give my own opinion based on what I've experienced and what I've read before buying my 2019 Accord hybrid touring. FIRST AND FOREMOST, GAS MILEAGE: My car really does hit 48-50mpg. This car is a hybrid. It is also my first hybrid. My previous car was a BMW...A gas-guzzling terrible 2015 228i BMW. So, how do you get 50mpg for all you out there who complain about your mileage? The secret to high gas mileage: Use regenerative (regen) braking with the paddle shifters. The left ( - ) paddle shifter increases the brakes (think of the - on the paddle shifter as a decrease in speed) and pumps more power to recharge the batteries. The + paddle (right) decreases the regenerative power, and provides a small bump in speed if the - paddle was already used. With that being said... PROS: - Stunning, aggressive-looking car. Honestly, it reminds me of an Audi (which i used to be obsessed with). - LOTS of technology. The one thing that it's missing is to show all 4 tire pressures on the screen live. My BMW had that, and it's the only technological thing that the BMW has over Honda as far as I'm concerned. - Very smooth, luxurious ride. My friend has a 535i BMW. This Honda drives as smooth as that $60,000 BMW does. - Decent acceleration - Extremely roomy, lots of space. - HUD is really, really cool. - Lots of small but very useful features, auto-lock (if key is more than 5' away) and auto-unlock by touching door handle for example are awesome. - Auto-dimming rearview mirrors are great - LED headlights! Auto-high beam if no on-coming cars are detected. Really cool. - Honda sensing is good. No complaints there. Just be sure to always use turn signal to switch lanes.... even if there is no one else around you...... because the steering wheel will jiggle if you do not. - Great gas mileage. - The engine is not as loud as some make it seem, but I've read this is only when you floor it. Hasn't been an issue for me and I'm pleasantly surprised by it. - Safety features are top notch. This car also feels super safe without any sacrifices. CONS - The handling is mediocre. My old 2014 Accord, and 2015 BMW were better at handling. This is kind of a bummer, but I've used regen braking on turns and it's fine. Still not stellar though. - The braking distance really is long WITHOUT regen braking. You must use the Regen braking. If you brake correctly using the Regen braking on the paddle shifters, braking distance is perfectly acceptable and should never be a problem. It also drastically increases mileage because the battery will be used more. As a bonus using the regen braking also saves $$$ because the pads will last longer. Note: The gas engine in this car is mainly used as a generator for the battery power. It is also is used for A/C and for going at speeds above ~50mph. There is no transmission. I've so far driven 200 miles (on and off) and have only used about 1/5 a tank of gas.. around the city and highway. Amazing car. Add more tire pressure instrumentation though, Honda!!

My 2017 just got broke in at 39K and was getting a pretty consistent 49-50 mpg. Took our 2017 in for service and while we were there the salesman talked us into test driving the 2019. We really liked the added safety features of the EX over our base model 2017. The ride was also nicer, the engine felt smoother and we loved the upgraded infotainment system with Android Auto. We traded in our 2017 and took the 2019 home. Went in for an oil change, came home with a new car. After 3 weeks and a 2400 mile trip, our only complaint is the mileage. We averaged 43 on our trip from Florida, over the Smokies to Ohio and Virginia. I will say that the mileage did seem to get better with each tank of gas but we are disappointed with the 43 mpg after getting close to 50 on our 2017. Fit and Finish is excellent and ride is very smooth. We enjoyed the Android Auto and the large screen display in the EX versus the small display of the Base model. We didn't feel the $1200 increase to the EX-L was worth the money so we stayed with the EX. It really gave us everything we felt we needed with all the added safety features. I think the only thing we don't have is the Parking Assist, but we seldom parallel park so it wasn't a big deal. If it wasn't for the MPG I'd have given it a full 5 stars, hopefully it will improve as the car breaks in. Other than that I feel it's a good solidly built car.

Love this car, except for one major thing. I bought a touring model in Nov of 2018. Car typically gets 37-38 mpg, Best so far is 40.6 over a tankful. And I baby this car trying to get the best mileage out of it. Dealer cannot figure out why a car that’s supposed to get 47 is doing that poorly. Honda??? You have any thoughts? Other than that it’s a magnificent vehicle. Just a bit frustrated about mileage. One year later... Honda never could give me answers other than "your mileage may vary." As the car has settled in I have been able to get 42 mpg on some tanks by accelerating very slowly and doing most driving between 45-50 mph. HOWEVER, anytime i take a longer trip, say from San Antonio to Dallas (250 miles), I get 37-38 every time. Awful hwy mileage for a hybrid of this generation. Still a quiet, stable auto that I really enjoy except for the mileage frustrations.

Paid extra for the hybrid trim. Get nowhere near advertised mileage. Just got back from 500 mile road trip and averaged less than 36 mpg. Had I known this I would’ve purchased another car.

After significant internet research, I was torn between the standard Accord and the hybrid and standard Camry, as well as not sure about the different trims. I am so happy that I bought the Accord Hybrid base model (3 weeks old now). It is an absolute joy to drive, is surprisingly quick, and most significantly, brings me peace on my long commute. It is absolutely the smoothest car I have ever driven and the interior is functional and not overly busy. Also, it is a far step above the 1.5t, and I love that the gas engine is naturally aspirated. I could not be happier.
