What is the actual fuel consumption of the 10th generation Accord?
2 Answers
The actual fuel consumption of the 10th generation Accord is 7-9L. As a midsize car, the fuel consumption performance of this model is excellent. In addition, this model has introduced a hybrid version, which has even better fuel consumption performance. Here are some extended details: 1. Model: The Accord is a midsize car launched by Honda, available in two versions: a hybrid version and a fuel version. 2. Powertrain: The 10th generation Accord is equipped with three engines: a low-power 1.5L turbocharged engine, a high-power 1.5L turbocharged engine, and a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine. The model equipped with the 2.0L turbocharged engine is the hybrid version. The hybrid version is a conventional hybrid electric vehicle, not a plug-in hybrid. However, Honda's hybrid technology is very close to that of pure electric vehicles, making Honda's hybrid cars extremely fuel-efficient.
My tenth-generation Accord is the 1.5T version, and I've been driving it for almost three years now. I mostly use it for commuting to work, and in congested city traffic, the fuel consumption is around 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers. On the highway, it drops to about 6 liters. The official figures claim a theoretical minimum fuel consumption of 6 liters, but in reality, using the air conditioning or frequent acceleration increases fuel consumption, especially during summer and winter when using the AC or heater consumes extra fuel. I've recorded an average of around 7.5 liters over several months. I've talked to a friend who drives the hybrid version, and his fuel consumption is lower, only 4 to 5 liters. To save fuel, maintaining proper tire pressure, avoiding carrying too much weight, and driving smoothly can help. Overall, the Accord feels economical and practical, even if it's slightly higher than the official figures, it's stable in the long run.
