How much does a Honda Accord weigh?

[SophieLee]

Honda Accord weighs between 1495-1660 kilograms. Calculation method of vehicle weight: The total mass of a vehicle (G) refers to the weight when the vehicle is fully equipped and loaded with passengers (including the driver) and cargo as specified. For passenger cars, the total mass = curb weight + driver and passenger weight + luggage weight. Common weight data for passenger cars: Generally, family cars weigh between 1200-1300kg, mid-size cars weigh between 1400-1600kg, while premium and luxury cars, SUVs, and off-road vehicles can exceed 1700kg.

The other day at the tuning shop, the owner helped me weigh my 10th-gen Accord. The 1.5T version weighs around 1.46 tons unladen, while the hybrid version is close to 1.6 tons due to the additional motor and battery. This weight is quite common for midsize sedans, but we tuners pay special attention to the front-rear weight distribution. After removing the spare tire and switching to lightweight wheels, you can clearly feel the rear end becoming more agile during cornering. In stock condition, even fully loaded with five people on the highway, it doesn't feel floaty - Honda's chassis tuning definitely benefits from this weight. Daily fuel consumption is heavily influenced by vehicle weight - the hybrid can achieve under 5L/100km, while the gasoline version averages around 7L.

I've been driving an Accord to pick up my kids for three years, and every time after washing the car, the steering wheel feels a bit lighter. The technician at the 4S store mentioned that the Elite version with a sunroof weighs approximately 1,475 kg, which is 80 kg heavier than the previous model, mainly due to added sound insulation materials in the doors and chassis. The most noticeable difference was last winter when the car was fully loaded with four adults and luggage, and it still had enough power to climb hills. The increased weight improves driving stability, especially when driving at 120 km/h in the rain without feeling floaty. However, the downside of the heavier body is that during maintenance, it was found that the front suspension bushings wear out faster than those on a Fit, so it's recommended to check the suspension components every 50,000 km.

Last year, the car rental company purchased fifteen Accords and specifically recorded data during inspections. The gasoline version with standard configuration and a full-size spare tire weighs 1,510 kg, while the hybrid Sharp Intelligence version weighs 1,540 kg. Interestingly, the US version is about 60 kg heavier than the Chinese version, mainly due to reinforced chassis components. This generation of Accord is 10% heavier than the ninth generation, but fuel consumption has actually decreased, indicating a greater improvement in engine thermal efficiency. The only thing to note is that after long-term use, slight sagging may occur at the door hinge positions, which is related to the weight distribution of the body. It is recommended to park on level ground as much as possible to reduce unilateral stress.
