    Thats good for short trips. Like having to pick something up from a store not too far away or whatever. 👍🏻 no engine wear and no water pooling in your exhaust

      Right? I feel like this would be extremely useful for super close trips or on the highway when traffic is too heavy and you don’t wanna waste gas

      im shocked how many people dont know how to drive this car. i own a 2024 honda accord sport hybrid.
      some useful tips:
      - accelerate gently to maximize mpg and duration in electric
      -you're technically able to go all the way up to around 80mph in just electric if you feather the gas enough (if you're only able to go 20mph in electric then you are accelerating too hard or you are going up a grade
      -ease off the pedal going downhill to ensure you're only using the battery or charging it to keep the engine from running
      -run it in eco mode not normal
      -if you feel the engine turn on but u have charger ease off the gas a bit and the car will only use electric power
      -hit the electric button in traffic

    I think it depends on how hard you press the pedal. A steady incline wont make it switch to gas

    Good video, now I want to know --- at highway speeds how fast can you go while still turning off the engine occasionally (into EV mode) ? I have Accord 9 and it can do it up until ~70 mph (though way too briefly for any real gain which is why I prefer 60-65). Certainly at 80 mph it's running the engine exclusively and not charging the battery any more.

    Battery barely lasted an a mile lol That’s why I purchased the civic non hybrid and not the accord hybrid either. As big as a honda fanatic I am, they’re far behind Toyota’s technology. Had two of them before hand and instead of replacing the battery at 30k miles under warranty, honda decided to do recalls to conserve the battery and take the battery assist function from stop and go functions, dude to battery degradation. I’ll never purchase a honda hybrid again! Even if the new one is way faster lol By the way lol Everything is connected to the battery! Parts are freaking insane! Fan clutch on an older civic $200. $1400 for a hybrid! Let’s not talk about other items that’s just an example lol

      the point isnt so the electric battery stays charged for a long time. it can stay charged for 10 mins max while driving but thats not the point. its meant to constantly charge up and deplete and cycle that. it can get 60mpg or more if u actually think about how ur driving.

      Not far. 5-10 min tops. 2024 Touring Hybrid. 4k miles. Played with all of it. Battery is small. It's not meant to sustain itself in EV mode indefinitely though. It's meant to run on both gasoline and ev, where both work together, and it's constantly recharging. If you drive aggressively, 35 miles per gallon to 45 miles per gallon is not unheard of over the course of a 10 mile trip, but also getting 45 to 60 miles per gallon is not unheard of either. I fill up a 12.9 gallon tank every 500 miles. I usually fill up at 10 1/2 gallons for $25 and it lasts me almost 3 weeks.

      On highway cruising... quite interesting what I've noticed...
      Cruise control will use the EV mode way more than not using cruise. It will utilize EV mode beyond 25%, i've seen it go up to around the 50% mark.
      It also will not allow you to go into EV mode with the heater on.
      I got over 54mpg highway at 70mph (5mph over the limit). That's crazy considering the car is rated at 41mpg highway. Planning on a long trip to home to visit family this holiday season. 1200 miles one way. Will be interesting to see it.

    Be aware: Honda Accord Hybrids do not come with a spare tire. You do get a tire repair kit and an air pump. Just visualize yourself trying to repair a flat tire in the middle of the night in the rain rain on a car that doesn't have a jack or tire iron. If it wasn't so dangerous It would be comical. Since I have been making these comments Honda has come up with a spare tire kit you can buy for $500 that gives you the missing content.
