What is the 0-100km/h acceleration time of the hybrid Accord?
2 Answers
According to official data, the hybrid version of the Accord has a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 7.55 seconds, while the high-power 1.5T version accelerates from 0-100km/h in 8.4 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting naturally in faster acceleration. The hybrid Accord has a maximum torque of 315 N·m and accelerates from 0-100km/h in 7.55 seconds. The high-power 1.5T Accord has a torque of 240 N·m and a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 8.4 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The hybrid Accord uses a CVT continuously variable transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The hybrid Accord has a power-to-weight ratio of 133 Hp/T and a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 7.55 seconds. The high-power 1.5T version has a power-to-weight ratio of 115 Hp/T and accelerates from 0-100km/h in 8.4 seconds.
As a young person who enjoys driving for leisure, I find the hybrid Accord's 0-100 km/h acceleration of around 7 seconds quite impressive. During my last test drive, when I stepped on the accelerator, the car instantly surged forward with strong back-pushing force, which is particularly useful for overtaking in the city or getting onto the highway. It's faster than the regular gasoline-powered Accord because the electric motor delivers instant power, making the start smoother without any jerking. It's perfectly sufficient for daily commutes and weekend trips—fast acceleration while being fuel-efficient, with a combined fuel consumption of about 5 liters per 100 km. It offers both excitement and economy. Compared to hybrid models in the same class, like the Camry, the Accord's sportier tuning makes it feel more agile, significantly enhancing the overall driving experience—especially for someone like me who enjoys a bit of thrill without spending a fortune. In short, this acceleration time offers great value for money in its price range.
