  • While most other manufacturers are abandoning family sedans, #Honda is not leaving the segment anytime soon with the redesigned 11th-generation #HondaAccord. This latest #AccordTouring trades some of the sportiness found in the previous generation for a refined #Acura like driving experience that feels noticeably more upmarket than its rivals. The #AccordHybrid will now account for more than 50% of sales and with up to 50 MPG on the #Hybrid, it will deliver the kind of efficiency Accord buyers are looking for.

    We finally got our hands on the all-new Accord for a week and even though some of you have voiced your dissatisfaction for the removal of the 2.0T engine, the reality is less than 10% of Accord buyers choose that engine and with a 0-60 MPH time of 6.4 secs, the new hybrid powertrain is only about 0.5 secs slower and gets nearly double the MPG's!

      Actually C&D got a 0-60 of 5.3 seconds in the Accord 2.0T longterm test. So it's about a full second or 5 car lengths quicker to 60 than the new Accord Hybrid.

    I bought this car a month ago and agree with most of this review, although I am consistently getting 44 mpg, but keep it in ECO mode 95% of the time. I liked last year's styling better but wasn't willing to buy a used car for almost the same price as a new car. Overall, a very smooth feel, ample pick-up for normal people. It has sensors on everything imaginable, but many are optional. It's a great car, but pricing is bad right now.

    I bought an EX-L in early March and have been very happy with it. The only thing I dislike is the black interior as summer weather gets here, but the overuse of black interiors has become a problem with all the Honda models. Too few offer gray or beige (ivory) interiors now. My mpg is average 48-49 in mixed driving, so i can't complain. I chose the EX-L for the features included, and the 17 inch tires that provide better gas mileage and less road noise. I also made sure to get blind spot indicator with my car. Due to a parts shortage, a huge percentage of Accords do not have BSI installed this year. Make sure to ask the dealer about BSI on each car you test drive if that's important to you.

    Good review Sofyan. It is amazing to see the variation in fuel economy between drivers and locales. I took delivery of my 2023 Touring March 1st in SE Wisconsin. As the weather has heated up and the engine has broken in, I am currently averaging 43.6 mpg in 1500 miles. However, in the last 800 or so miles, it is over 45. This is mix of highway (60-75mph) and city. Yes, I drive with a light foot to get good fuel economy and it is usually in ECO drive mode. Many have said, this looks like an old man's car. Well, I am an old man of 64 and I am loving this car. So glad it is much quieter than the previous generation. That was my main concern.

      In over five years since break-in (not because of break-in, that's when I started keeping detailed records), over all driving conditions, I am averaging 48.0 mpg (it was rated at 47, both city and highway). I'm not an aggressive driver, but I am not passive either. The only thing that I think contributes to my mpg, is not changing speeds aggressively. I try to anticipate stops, and situations where I will want acceleration (like on-ramps). But my foot can be "heavy" when needs be.

I love the drive and the handling of the vehicle. It is soooo quiet that I thought it was not cranked. I like the large monitor screen and the personalization I can do on the dash. The passenger seat is way too low for my husband so we had to purchase a padded seat for passenger side to assist in sitting higher. They indicated it was a heated steering wheel, but this is only in the Canadian models. I have the nice red with a grey interior and it is very nice. I did not want the black interior so we opted for the grey which gives the car a very good contrast. But overall I am very happy with the new vehicle!!

That’s the trim I would want as it has ALL the bells and whistles, and no cost cutting on interior trim (door panels,etc.), found on lower Accord level trims, shamefully, as every Honda Accord trim should have full padding trim on all 4 door panels, not just the fronts. Whenever I discovered that the rear door panels,on lower trim models are all hard plastics, save for the mildly padded Rubbermaid arms rests, I thought to myself; “OMG, what is the world coming to”. Quite frankly, this dismal surprise, on a Honda Accord, is well, SACRILEGIOUS ! Shame on Honda for this cost cutting on their pride and joy that’s been their major bread winner for the last 46 years, enabling it to make not only Car and Drivers annual top 10 best list, but Motor Trend as well. Though, any trim level of the all new accord is a beautiful automobile; there’s no denying the superb engineering genius that Honda has always infused into the Honda Accord. Not to mention a 17 cubic foot trunk, as well as a cavernous interior with nearly 41 inches of rear leg room. No matter the engine preference, whether it be the 1.5 turbo or the amazing new 2.0 hybrid motor, you’re still getting great gas mileage and great performance from either engine. However, my preference is the 2.0 hybrid engine; no denying that EPA rating of 46-51 mpg city, 41 to 44 mpg highway rating , all the while making 204 horsepower and 247 lb Ft of instantaneous torque provided by the electric motors from 0 rpm to 3000 rpm. That’s good for 0-60mph in 6.4 seconds; impressive. Not to mention it’s near sports car handling of 0.89 g-force around the bends, with levels of luxury refinement in the ride, and the hush hush quiet interior. In conclusion, nothing drives, nor can ever be what the Honda Accord is, and thats an unparalleled balance of everything to all consumers who buy the Accord, and continue to be because of these reasons. The Honda Accord truly is an engineering marvel ! Enjoy your car. I can’t wait until I can get one too.

But I also have a few disappointments. 1. Seats are not that comfortable and cushion seems too thin compare to my old Honda Accord. 2. Lack of head space.

    I bought this car about 4 months ago. I have a light foot and consequently get around 45 to 46 mpg. It’s quieter than the 2020 hybrid touring I owned. My wife loves the car as I do, but she is not fond of the passenger seat. At five feet tall she almost needs a booster seat. I personally like the new look, especially the rear end. I didn’t really like the lobster claw look. The front end looks good too, but I agree with the reviewer that the plastic on the headlight should have been the same color as the car.
    I have never liked white cars. The pearl white on my Touring is an exception. It looks great and doesn’t show the dirt. If I really have one complaint, the lane assist doesn’t work as well as the reviewer’s vehicle, and the tires are noisy. Otherwise I love the 2023 Honda Touring Hybrid.
