Exterior and Performance
The 2020 Accord Hybrid is equipped with a 1,993 cc engine block that generates up to 143 horsepower and 129 pound-feet of torque. Port fuel injection and the i-VTEC valvetrain are some notable technologies of this I-4 gasoline powertrain. An electric motor increases the hybrid system’s net output to 212 hp and 232 lb-ft of torque. A lithium-ion battery pack generates supplemental electrical power under the hood of this efficient Honda sedan, which offers a combined fuel economy of 47 MPG. The Electronic Continuously Variable Transmission (E-CVT) system is custom-tuned for this hybrid sedan.
You can also select three different driving modes for the hybrid powertrain. For instance, the EV Mode completely shuts off the engine block during a drive. The ECON Mode maximizes gas mileage in the city or on the highway. You can choose the Sport Mode for enhanced acceleration on paved surfaces. This hybrid Honda sedan also comes standard with the Eco Assist and Hill Start Assist technologies. The Active Noise Cancellation significantly reduces any noise that’s generated during combustion. This efficient Honda model also has an electric parking brake for enhanced stability on hills. Thanks to the Automatic Brake Hold, you don’t have to worry about unintentional movement on inclined roads.
