How long does it take for the Accord 1.5T gasoline to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?
2 Answers
The Accord 1.5T gasoline accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.5 seconds. It is equipped with a turbocharged engine, with a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), delivering a maximum horsepower of 194 PS, a maximum power of 143 kW, and a maximum torque of 260 Nm. Taking the 2021 Accord as an example, it is a mid-size sedan with body dimensions of 4893 mm in length, 1862 mm in width, and 1449 mm in height, a wheelbase of 2830 mm, a front track of 1600 mm, a rear track of 1610 mm, a fuel tank capacity of 56 liters, and a curb weight of 1495 kg.
I drive quite a lot and always feel that the Honda Accord 1.5T's 0-100 km/h acceleration is quite impressive. Test data shows it's around 8.5 seconds, thanks to the low-end torque output of that 1.5-liter turbocharged engine - you can really feel the push-back sensation when accelerating from standstill. Overtaking in city traffic is particularly effortless with this car, especially when starting from traffic lights without any sluggishness. However, I'd suggest not pushing the acceleration too hard in daily driving, as it comes with a CVT transmission - smooth but with a slight lag during sudden acceleration. The wind noise is a bit noticeable at highway speeds, but overall it offers decent driving pleasure. As for fuel consumption, considering this acceleration time, the average is around 6L/100km, making it quite economical. If you really want accurate measurements, try it yourself on an open road, but remember safety first - be extra cautious when driving at high speeds.
