Better yet, the new Accord Hybrid is more affordable than ever thanks to a starting Manufacturer&#8217;s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP)<sup>1<\/sup> of <span class=\"xn-money\">$25,100<\/span> (excluding <span class=\"xn-money\">$890<\/span> destination and handling), reflecting a <span class=\"xn-money\">$4,505<\/span> drop compared to the previous model. Despite this lower entry point, the Accord Hybrid still offers a lengthy list of standard equipment, such as 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights (low beam) and taillights, dual-zone climate control, Smart entry with Push-button Start, a 7-inch TFT digital driver&#8217;s meter, a multi-angle rearview camera, and the Honda Sensing<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0suite of advanced safety and driver-assistive technologies, which bundles together Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Collision Mitigation Braking System\u2122, Road Departure Mitigation, Lane Departure Warning, and Traffic Sign Recognition. <\/p>\n<p>The 2018 Accord Hybrid is powered by the third generation of Honda&#8217;s innovative two-motor hybrid powertrain, which pairs a 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Atkinson-cycle inline-4 engine with 40-percent thermal efficiency to an electric propulsion motor that churns out 232 lb.-ft. of torque for a class-leading total system output of 212 horsepower. As before, the Accord two-motor system operates without the need for a conventional automatic transmission. <\/p>\n<p>Helping to maximize energy generation are steering wheel-mounted Deceleration Selectors. Similar to transmission paddle shifters, the Accord Hybrid&#8217;s Deceleration Selectors allow the driver to easily toggle between four levels of regenerative braking performance. The right selector increases regenerative braking and the left selector reduces regenerative braking. The system simultaneously helps reduce stress on the brakes while increasing battery charging via regeneration.<\/p>\n<p>The Accord Hybrid&#8217;s powertrain operates by seamlessly shifting between three distinct drive operations: EV Drive (100-percent electric motor), Hybrid Drive (electric motor and gasoline engine [driving the generator motor]) and Engine Drive (gasoline engine), utilizing power from the gasoline engine and electric motors to accommodate the current driving conditions. <\/p>\n<div>\n<table id=\"convertedTable0c92\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" class=\"prngen1\">\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"4\" class=\"prnsbtb0 prnrbrb0 prnvab prnsbtb0 prntac prnpl6 prnsblb0 prnpr6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>2018 Accord Hybrid Pricing &amp; EPA Data<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"4\" class=\"prnsbtb0 prnrbrb0 prnvab prnsbtb0 prntar prnpl6 prnsblb0 prnpr6\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prnsbts prnrbrs prnvat prnsbbs prntac prnpl6 prnsbls prnpr6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Trim<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen5\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>MSRP<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen5\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>MSRP<br \/>Including<br \/>$890<br \/>Destination<b><sup>2<\/sup><\/b><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen5\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>EPA Fuel Economy<br \/>Ratings<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>(city \/ highway \/ combined)<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prngen6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Accord Hybrid <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$25,100<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$25,990<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">47\/47\/47<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prngen6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Accord Hybrid EX <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$28,890<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$29,780<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">47\/47\/47<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prngen6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Accord Hybrid EX-L<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$31,440<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$32,330<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">47\/47\/47<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prngen6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Accord Hybrid EX-L Navi<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$32,440<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$33,330<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">47\/47\/47<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"prngen6\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\"><b>Accord Hybrid Touring <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$34,710<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">$35,600<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"prngen7\">\n<p class=\"prnews_p\"><span class=\"prnews_span\">47\/47\/47<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>The 2018 Accord Hybrid benefits from a 2.16 inch longer wheelbase and a 32-percent smaller intelligent power unit (IPU) that is now mounted under the rear floor instead of in the trunk, allowing for the inclusion of a 60\/40-split rear seat. As a result, the Accord Hybrid provides the same people- and cargo-hauling space and flexibility as its conventionally-powered counterparts. Add it altogether and the 2018 Accord Hybrid delivers class-leading cargo space (16.7 cubic feet), interior space (122.3 cubic feet), and rear legroom (40.4 inches) all while reducing its overall footprint. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The newest Accord Hybrid joins an expanding line-up of electrified Honda vehicles that includes the Clarity series \u2013 Clarity Fuel Cell, Clarity Electric and Clarity Plug-In Hybrid \u2013 and forthcoming 2019 Insight compact hybrid sedan. These models represent the next generation of Honda vehicles as the company advances toward its global initiative to grow electrified vehicle sales to two-thirds by 2030. <\/p>\n<p>The new Accord Hybrid joins the Accord 1.5T and 2.0T in Honda&#8217;s all-new, award-winning 10<sup>th<\/sup>-generation Accord lineup. The new Accord has been called &#8220;America&#8217;s Best Sedan&#8221; by <i>Car and Driver<\/i> magazine, and in January was named 2018 North American Car of the Year. On the heels of claiming Kelley Blue Book KBB.com&#8217;s prestigious Overall Best Buy Award for 2018, the Accord has also earned a KBB.com Best Resale Value Award. <\/p>\n<p>The 2018 Accord Hybrid for the North American market is manufactured using domestic and globally-sourced parts exclusively at Honda&#8217;s <span class=\"xn-location\">Marysville, Ohio<\/span> auto plant<sup>3<\/sup> alongside the Accord 1.5T and Accord 2.0T. Its hybrid powertrain, including the 2.0L Atkinson-cycle, is produced at the nearby <span class=\"xn-location\">Anna, Ohio<\/span> engine plant, Honda&#8217;s largest engine plant. The intelligent power unit (IPU), containing the hybrid battery pack, also is assembled in the Marysville Auto Plant. More than 11 million of the 13 million Accords purchased by U.S. car buyers over the past 41 years have been made in America since Honda started U.S. automobile manufacturing in <span class=\"xn-location\">Marysville, Ohio<\/span> in <span class=\"xn-chron\">November 1982<\/span>. <\/p>\n<p><b><u>For More Information<br \/><\/u><\/b>For more information as well as high-resolution photography and video, please visit <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/hondanews.com\/honda-automobiles\/channels\/accord-hybrid\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/hondanews.com\/honda-automobiles\/channels\/accord-hybrid<\/a>.
