The 2025 Honda Accord hybrid undergoes subtle refinements, with no significant changes from its 2024 predecessor.
Honda’s mid-size sedan now offers a hybrid model option, which includes a mandatory $1,095 destination charge. In alignment with Honda’s strategy of situating hybrids as premium offerings, the most affordable hybrid Sport trim is positioned at a price point exceeding that of the gasoline-powered LX and SE grades, both valued at $29,390 and $31,655, respectively?

The Honda Hybrid powertrain is also available in the EX-L ($36,035), Sport-L ($36,470), and Touring ($40,395) trims. For the 2025 model year, all trims will feature standard rear air conditioning vents, USB-C ports, as well as heated front seats on the entire lineup, with the Sport trim boasting a wireless phone charger.
The unchanged two-motor hybrid powertrain dispenses with the need for a traditional transmission, instead employing the Atkinson-cycle 2.0-liter inline-4 engine primarily as a generator. The dual-output all-wheel drive powertrain sends a combined 330 horsepower and 247 pound-feet of torque directly to the front wheels. Honda has long been developing all-wheel-drive hybrid vehicles, which employ an additional electric motor to power the rear wheels entirely, but the Japanese automaker has yet to announce a release timeline for these innovative models.

EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings remain unchanged at 51 mpg in city driving, 44 mpg on the highway for the EX-L trim, while all other models boast a combined rating of 44 mpg, with respective metropolitan and freeway estimates of 46 mpg and 41 mpg.
Here is the improved/revised text: The 11th-generation Accord, a perennial favorite among sedans, made its debut in the 2023 model year. Innovative automotive enthusiasts widely praised the new model as a significant upgrade over its predecessor. Since its introduction, the rival Hyundai Sonata and Toyota Camry hybrids have undergone updates, with the Toyota Camry opting to discontinue non-hybrid powertrains in favor of a more comprehensive hybrid offering that now includes an all-wheel-drive option.
