2018-honda-accord-hybrid-reviewThousands of hybrid cars have been tested over the years. A notable aspect is that a majority of purchasers keep returning to specific ones. Most consumers often prefer a mid-sized hybrid sedan because of their efficiency. With such cars, one can carry their family, as well as their luggage and still manage to return around 35-45 mpg on daily driving. The newest version of Honda, the Accord hybrid car is one such vehicle that purchasers keep going back to. This generation hybrid car happens to be the most powerful in its category. At the bottom part of the hood, there is an Earth Dreams engine with a capacity of 2 liters. This engine is connected to an electric transmission cable, as well as lithium ion batteries. This gives a good combination for a total output of more than 200 horsepower. It also enables the hybrid car to easily sprint using highway speeds.

Although the motors tend to be quite noisy at high speeds, this sedan is capable of pepping up when there is the need to do so. It has a sport mode that exaggerates the electric parts of the motors to allow a more responsive experience. The exterior design is fully Accord, as well as unmistakably Honda. At the front grill, there is a chrome-coated badge, daytime running lights and LED headlamps. When darkness falls, the hybrid’s exterior headlights glow in a clear white light generated from the LEDs. These lights are neither the normal projector beam lights nor diffused reflectors. Instead, they are amazing full LED housings. The tail lamps around the back also have LED treatment to complete the look.

The interior part of the Accord is the same as that of the standard models, except for the hybrid details present on the dash. There are two monitor systems, which are not a problem to most drivers. However, for a few drivers, the double monitors are a bother because they prefer a clean and streamlined look of a single monitor. The car’s touch screens are well responsive to touch commands with the remaining part of the dashboard being pleasant to the eyes. The color and font of text is not only attractive, but also visible from a distance. The hybrid has both Android and Apple smartphone connectivity. The comfort of front seat is top-notch, while the rear seats are also spacious, giving adequate space for passenger’s legs. The car can still accommodate two adults comfortably even with its two child seats. Finally, the hybrid is efficient and very subtle on road.
