- The rental of the week is the 2022 Honda Accord Sport Hybrid! I rarely see Hondas on the rental car lots, let alone a pretty decent spec with hybrids! The last real hybrid I drove was the Ford Fusion Hybrid Titanium in Denver. I'm elated to tell you that I loved the car this week! Check out the video to see why!

Awesome video man… about to pick me up one next month… thanks for making this detailed video man keep it up
Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it!
LOVE this review!❤
Thank you!
You are very welcome and thank you for giving a smaller CZcamsr a chance!
Great review and tips. Heading on the weekend to buy me one
Thank you for watching and giving a smaller CZcamsr a chance! Future congratulations on your new purchase! I know you’re going to enjoy it.
Go up one size to 245 series tires and it's a HUGE improvement on the ride. It's the sidewall that's doing it on this car.
How so please?
That is contrary to typical results. Care to explain?
What is the sidewall doing exactly?
@@falcorzed going up one size in width increases the thickness of the sidewall just over 5% and while it seems like a small amount, the difference is huge. I did this on my 2019 Touring running the same size Michelin Touring tires and it's perfect.
Follow any of the various FB Groups or 10th Gen forums and you'll find similar results en-mass.
@@ms3er396 Omg thank you. This is kind of the only thing that's holding me back from buying this car right now, but glad to know theres a way to fix it.
What an amazing and detailed video thank you!

Nice review. The Honda Accord hybrid has surprisingly decent power with 232 pound feet of torque available at any time or speed. It drives more like an EV than anything else. The weird thing about it is that it changes your driving paradigm. The delightful thing is the 10th generation Accord handling and ride. It is simply first class. The interior is classy and infotainment good.
Thank you checking out a video from a smaller CZcams. I appreciate that dearly. It didn’t feel like all 232 lb-ft of torque was available at all times, but that’s just my experience.
@@TheHungryRoad if there's a charge in the battery pack, the electric motor will put out 232 ft lbs. Sport mode makes the gas engine very active to keep max charge going into the battery and max charge into the drive motor. It's an ingenious system. It's no super car but it gets around very well.
Hybrids usually get misrepresented. It isn't really two powertrains, it is *most* *of* a conventional gas-engine powertrain, with electric motors added to the transmission. The electric motors can drive the car, powered by the battery, but the gas engine can never drive the car without the motors. In the case of this car, this electrified transmission has two modes.
1) In "Hybrid Drive," it is an electrically-coupled CVT, or eCVT. But I prefer to call it a virtual CVT. The gas engine drives only a generator, and its output powers the motor. This allows the engine to run, most of the time, at 2000 RPM and 34 HP, where it is most efficient (40.6%). Any differences between 34 HP, and the power the car needs, is accounted fro by charging or discharging the battery. You can calculate a gear ratio, which indeed does vary continuously, but is meaningless since the engine is not connected to the wheels.
2) In "Engine Drive," the engine is connected directly to the wheels with a single, overdrive gear. The little gear symbol in the center of the Power Flow Meter indicated this. It only works above about 40 mph, and RPM=37*MPH. Like overdrive, it is only for cruising (i.e., low power). The actual power vary, but will still be what is most efficient at that RPM., and always above about 40%.
YO! Thank you so much! This is so much information and I really appreciate it!
It's what we call in my field "Freaking magic". :P
Low riding car with oversized wheels equals a rough ride man. I got 17 inch stock tires and the ride is smooth AF, better than my old BMW
Yeah, it makes a lot of sense, but other companies have figured out how to have big wheels on cars and have soft suspension, but not at the “Honda” level. Lol.
I had a 2018 Accord hybrid, but it was the base model. It was a great car, but since it was the base model, I didn't keep it. Other than not having some of the nice upgrades, I loved the car! The rough ride is probably due to suspension changes in the sport mode - the non-sport model had a very smooth ride. One other comment that I'm not sure if I'll call a "good thing" or bad - if you press and hold the unlock button on the key fob, it'll roll down all of the windows. It's great for cooling off the car, but a MAJOR pain if you have the fob in your pocket and the button gets pressed... while it's raining...
Ah! I have noticed more and more cars that allow you to drop the windows from the key fob while the car is off. Lol. You’ve got to have some kind of luck to do it in your pocket while it’s raining. 😂 It was a really nice car though and I would certainly recommend it.
My Acura Key fob does that too. Not sure if it's just a Honda/Acura, thing or if all key fobs have that capability.
Great review. I'm on the fence between this Accord Hybrid Sport and the Camry Hybrid SXE. Need to get them side by side instead of looking at the days or weeks in between. Appreciate your opinion on this one!
You’re welcome! I feel like the Accord will be more sporty and the Camry will be more… “casual”.
It's not even close. them honda clean asf. If I get a toyota I want that Rav4 hybrid not thats a hard choice
I have a 2021 Accord Sport SE in Still Night Pearl and the Pearl makes the color flop to magenta in certain light especially on the front fender curves above the wheel. I LOVE the color!
Then that sounds like that paint is certainly worth the extra upgrade! I bet it’s beautiful!
Great review. I cancelled my model 3 preorder for this car. The accords 500+ miles per tank compared to teslas roughly 300 miles was my deciding factor.
Really?! They’re vastly different cars, but I’m glad that you were able to come to a decision. I know how hard car-shopping is.
Nice review sir 👏👏
Love this color 💯🔥🔥
Thank you! You like black aye? Lol.
@@TheHungryRoad Question....'22 Accord 2.0t, '23 Camry SE or this '22 Hybrid with some extra options?? I'm interested in reliability.
That’s a tough one! If you’re going strictly on reliability, the Camry SE is probably the way to go. Once you start adding turbos or hybrid motors to the engine you instantly start bringing the reliability down.
@@TheHungryRoad Thx
Yeah I wasn't even checking for the black. I like the sonic gray pearl. But black is pure sekks imagine with tints and blacked out tailights
Blind spot detection should be as standard as bluetooth-AGREED!
Theyre well built, thats for sure.
I feel like Honda has earned that reputation and has held it up for a very long time.
Cheaper to add all those features aftermarket. Hondas are very customizable. Dealerships are literally overcharging for those features.
Oh for sure! But it saves you time and legwork to have the dealership do it versus having to piece-meal and add all of those things individually.
Can bsi be added by honda after purchasing the car?
It’s a rental right? The wheels probably need to be rotated and maybe a balance I have the same exact car. Drives smooth as hell
Definitely a rental and you could be right! Thank you so much for watching and giving a smaller CZcamsr a chance.
nice review, hungry road! i’m confused by some of the criticisms in the comment section, seems like some goofy things to complain about. to each his/her own i suppose. cheers
Lol. It comes with the territory when you put yourself out there. I genuinely appreciate you watching and commenting. Thank you so much.
@@TheHungryRoad you’re very welcome. i bought a hybrid rav4 last december & i love it. i’ve always been a fan of honda & toyota, so i say get yourself a hybrid! do it!!
@@dominicfischio851. Lol. I just need a bit more power and some emotion from the exhaust note. I’ll figure something out eventually!
@@TheHungryRoad oh i hear you! hybrid definitely isn’t sexy or exciting! lol
The 19” rims cause a lot unstable driving. I have those stock in my 2016 Sport, I don’t like that ride but on the highway it rides much better. My 2020 LX with the stock rims feels like I’m driving on a cloud.
You’re giving me some good insight here! I appreciate you! Thank you so much for watching!
@@TheHungryRoad I appreciate you for replying!
@@BottomLin3Op. I ain’t big time yet, so I have time to reply. 😂
He said baleen. Lmbo. Excellent review.
😂😂😂 Did it make sense though?!
@@TheHungryRoad thats why it was so funny. I totally seen baleen.😆
25 mins, you don't have lane departure honda sensing ON. If you did the car would steer itself and keep it centered in the lane. It wouldn't allow you to depart the lane like that.
You’re right about the tire size, but aye, I’m just reviewing the car how Honda gives it to us, but you’re right about a bigger tire adding more cushion. You’re also right about me not having the lane departure on correctly. I had turned it off because of how annoying it was. Lol. So that is an error on my part for sure. Thank you for watching the video from a smaller CZcamsr and for pointing out my mistakes.
I got a 21 accord exl 1.5t and my ride is super smooth so I’m thinking those wheels make it ride rough
Yeah, gotta be the wheels, but they say beauty is pain so I’ll take that rough ride in exchange for those super nice wheels!
No, the Sport mode stiffens up the suspension response.
@@W4r10ckm4n it's a rough ride regardless of mode, unless you get the touring
those wheels make the car look sexy and exotic but they're also a curse. i saw a '21 model at a body shop that apparently sat outside overnight (in the bronx), this morning it was sittin' on bricks
Sheesh! Really?! That sucks. Those wheels are SO NICE though.
@@TheHungryRoad they're the most stolen wheels out there. i see them on civics, suv's, minivans and even camrys. i bought special locks for mine, so they're theft proof
Don't like 19-inch wheels. Can you put 18s on it?
You absolutely could and I’m sure it would soften the suspension too.
I think sports model = low profile tire = rough ride
You'd be correct about that. Lol. Other manufacturers have been able to make "sports cars" ride relatively smooth even with big wheels, so why can't Honda? Lol. I know, I know, it's expensive.
@@TheHungryRoad the touring would take care of that, it's has adaptive suspension
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 21:20 when that THANG THANGING we all can relate
😂😂😂
If you’re going to be talking in the camera. Then move closer to the camera. I felt like I was watching you from the nose bleeds lol nice review
Lol. I genuinely appreciate that criticism. Which part were you referring to? Me standing behind the car talking or inside the car?
@@TheHungryRoad when you first started the video...when you were talking from the other side of the car going through the different colors and stuff...you seem so small and far away......I was getting a headache
@@marilynnscorner345 I’ll keep that in mind next time. Thank you for your criticism!

Thank you for joining the family! I hope that you stick around! 😁
Filming the screens while driving 🤨🤦♂️🙄. Dude… lol. #SafetyFirst. 😉🤷♂️
I appreciate your concern, but my eyes are on the road at all times. I just point the camera at the dash or whatever part of the car I’m talking about while still paying attention to the road.
@@TheHungryRoad sounds good my man 👍🏼 😉😎
put 19s and low pros on any car and you’ll have a rough ride… and plus you’re in Cleveland. Lol
Lol. Hey man, hey. I’m just reviewing the car how it was given to me. 😂
No spare tire.😂😂😂😂😂
Lol. I didn’t really see one!
