ROAD TRIPPING THE 2025 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID (800 MILES!) - WHAT’S IT LIKE?

EV Channels Review

This 2025 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring was put to the test on an 800-mile road trip, serving as a comfortable and efficient companion. The reviewer highlights its spacious interior, particularly the generous rear-seat legroom, and the quiet, plush ride quality, even with 19-inch wheels. The two-motor hybrid system is praised for its seamless operation and free-revving nature, contributing to an impressive real-world fuel economy of 38.8 MPG, slightly below the EPA's 41 MPG highway rating but understandable given the load. Key drawbacks identified include a somewhat unrefined adaptive cruise control system that often feels like it's impeding traffic, and occasional infotainment glitches like CarPlay disconnecting and the screen freezing. While the front seats are noted as a bit firm, the overall comfort and build quality are highly regarded for a vehicle in its price range. The Bose sound system also received positive marks.
