Misleading MPG.
I am very disappointed in the fuel efficiency of this car. I was able to get 44 MPG on a Ford fusion hybrid which was advertised at 41 MPG. In this car I only get 35mpg and no matter how carefully I drive I cannot seem to Break the 40mpg barrier! If I had to do it again then I would have gotten a different vehicle!

Good car but falls short on local driving
Car I made well. Fit and finish are up to Honda standards. Rides harshly at low speeds around town. Road defects are felt and heard throughout the car. Hybrid technology falls a bit short of Toyota. You are either getting great mileage or bad mileage, no in between.

Droning noise
Excellent except when you hit 53 MPH. At that speed you will experience a loud droning noise that last about 5-10 seconds. Soubds like your driving next to a freight train. Dealership mechanics can't figure it out. Happens with the 2018, 2019 and 2020's.

Easy and fun to drive. VERY DISAPPOINTING MPG.
I've driven a 2009 Toyota hybrid EXL since new. About 116,000 miles. I always got the 33/34 EPA mileage or better. I know how to drive a hybrid. In Oct. 2019 I purchased a New Honda Accord Hybrid Touring. I was really excited about the 48/48 MPG and 600 mile range per tank. I really enjoy the Dynamic Cruise control, Lane keep assist, Backup camera, Voice command and more, HOWEVER, ALL top end model cars I considered had these options. I have driven this car 2,800 miles from Oct.23 to date Dec.12. 2019. 1,800 mile vacation from OK through TX. Very moderate climate(40 to 85 degrees). I drive 99.9% in Eco mode. I tried Sport mode for a couple of miles just to know the difference. Sport mode made it much quicker and was surprising, but I'm very content with the performance of Eco mode so I just leave it in Eco all the time. The problems are: 1. The Gas mileage is no where close to 48/48 as EPA advertised. The per tank distance is around 440 miles not the 600 expected. My average is Closer to 37 city and 35 Hwy. I'm a senior citizen and I pretty much drive the speed limit , I'm light on the pedal, I use dynamic cruise control and lane keep assist as much as possible and enjoy driving a hybrid. 2. The front seats are to low which makes it very hard to get out of the car. There is a handle, but it is not in the right place to assist getting out of the car. I'm 5'10" and my wife is 5' 2" and we both have this problem. the passenger seat is worse because there is no height adjustment. 3. You don't get a Spare Tire or Jack with this car, only an air pump. Honda won't even sell you one, because they don't stock it. You can buy an Accord SE (Non Hybrid) 17" donut Spare and jack and foam tool box for about $500.00 and it will fit in the space provided for a spare. I bought mine from E-Bay and foam tool box and hold down bolt from Honda and spent $300. 4. The Free 3 months Sirius XM radio will end up costing about $20.00 a month after 3 free months. 5. The Free AT&T 3 month Hot spot for the car will cost about $30.00/ month after free 3 months. 6. The Sign Recognition is really nice but picks up wrong speeds regularly. Lots of 90 MPH and 100 MPH on the hwy. and some wrong speed limits in the city, sometimes when there isn't even a speed limit sign. 7. The Navigation picks up destinations well, but will not allow you to force a certain route. It will tell you to leave the hwy. and send you through town then put you back on the same Hwy. Happened in San Antonio. On stacked hwy. in Houston the Nav told us to exit and turn around because it didn't know which hwy. we were on. The 10 year newer 2019 Nav on the honda didn't compare to the 2009 Toyota Nav. Final Conclusion is I will probably sell my Honda in a couple of years and pay the about $1,500.00 more (New compared to new) and get the Toyota.

Misleading gas mileage-
I am averaging 36 mpg- not the 47 that is falsely advertised. I am very disappointed in this car and feel that Honda Corp has deceived the public.

Stylish and sleek
This is a roomy vehicle. I can fit a massage table in the trunk with room for groceries! The back seat and front leg room/head room are incredible. The ride is smooth, seats are nice and well adjustable, but could use more cushion for long rides. The performance is great, considering that it is a hybrid. My biggest complaint is that it has an occasional annoying humming noise while driving.

Looking forward to a LONG life with our Touring!
We did a lot of research into hybrid vehicles and chose this one because Honda has an excellent reputation for quality, durability, and overall long life. I’m a prior Honda Prelude owner and looking forward to having this car for a very long time!

Great car overall
Car performs well for a hybrid. More road noise than I would like but the trade off is an affordable vehicle that gets good gas mileage. Gas mileage is not a definite on the hybrid, which was a bit misleading in the purchase. The car does not have a range, but just one number, so we thought that the car would get 48 miles to the gallon. It does not. Highest MPG we can get is 42.5 and our salesperson said that is very good.
