Efficient and Powerful Engine Options

The new 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid is powered by a 2.0L Atkinson-cycle 4-cylinder engine that utilizes the power of not one, but two motors. The motors are powered by a compact lithium-ion battery pack located in the trunk, allowing you to keep more cargo space than in other hybrids. Honda uses Earth Dreams technology to maximize fuel efficiency. A CVT transmission is paired with this engine to give you smooth transitions between gears. The engine delivers up to 212-hp.

Outstanding Fuel Economy

The 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid will give you up to 49 mpg city* and 47 mpg highway* or 48 mpg combined*. This high gas mileage estimate is thanks to the dual motors, a first in its class, to offer you more energy than ever. Regenerative braking also works to recharge the battery, meaning you’ll get further when you’re driving.

Driving Modes

Three driving modes use varying levels of electric and gas power to maximize efficiency for your Casper commute. EV Drive mode utilizes electric energy, Hybrid Drive mode uses both motor power as well as the gasoline engine, and Engine drive primarily uses the gasoline engine. Depending on the available battery power, the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid automatically switches between these modes while you’re driving to offer you optimal performance. Which mode you’re in will be displayed on the instrument display inside of the vehicle.

  • Regenerative Braking: You can switch between “D” and “B” mode to boost regenerative braking power should you need to charge the lithium-ion battery pack back to life while you’re driving.

Critics are Impressed with the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid Performance

Critics are happy that Honda has brought the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid back into its lineup. Here’s some of what they’re saying about this year’s model.

  • Edmunds: “Well, the Honda Accord Hybrid was gone for a year. Did you miss it? We certainly did, as it’s one of the few genuinely enjoyable hybrid sedans on the market.”
  • Hybrid Cars: “Already a competent handler, the front suspension received a new bushing design to mildly improve the balance between bump compliance and control. Revised power steering assistance also adds to the consistent sure-footed feeling. Cornering through curvy hills felt planted with minimal roll while comfy but ample seat bolstering held the driver and a passenger in place through the curves.”
  • Car and Driver: “The new Accord hybrid is quiet and comfortable for drivers and passengers alike, and seat-of-the-pants acceleration and braking performances should exceed most expectations.”
  • Autoblog: “Just like in the 2014 model, the steering felt responsive and the brake blending was impressive. In fact, since Honda has increased the amount of regenerative braking the upgraded powertrain can handle, brake feel was even improved.”
