What is the fuel consumption of the Accord?

The actual fuel consumption of the tenth-generation Accord is 7-9L. Below is additional information: Model: The Accord is a mid-size car launched by Honda, available in two versions: a hybrid version and a fuel version. Powertrain: The tenth-generation Accord is equipped with three types of engines: a low-power 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, a high-power 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, and a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine. The model with the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine is the hybrid version. The hybrid version is a conventional hybrid 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 1.5T spends about 70% of its daily commute on highways, with the displayed fuel consumption consistently around 6.2L. The most fuel-efficient run was during a long-distance trip with cruise control set at 110 km/h, where the consumption dipped below 5L. Of course, it's a headache if stuck in city traffic the whole way—my colleague’s same model, used purely for city commuting, can spike up to 9.5L. When refueling, remember to check the label on the fuel cap—this car runs fine on regular 92-octane fuel. The hybrid version is even more impressive; my buddy once achieved 4.3L consumption with the AC on while carrying three passengers on an elevated highway. However, the hybrid costs an extra 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and you’d need to drive around 70,000 to 80,000 km to break even.
Just picked up the 10.5-gen hybrid Accord three months ago, and it's been a pleasant surprise for city driving. During the morning and evening rush hours, shuttling kids through traffic-light-heavy routes with the AC set at 25°C, the display consistently shows 4.5-5L. Yesterday, I deliberately reset the fuel consumption for an intercity highway trip—three people with luggage, cruising at 120 km/h with adaptive cruise control—and it settled at 5.8L. Gotta complain about the fuel tank, though—only 40 liters for the hybrid version, so I find myself refueling more often than with our old Camry. Also, the hybrid drives like an electric car, super quiet, but the engine kick-in comes with a slight vibration that takes some getting used to.
