3 Answers
The real fuel consumption of the 10th generation Accord is 7-9L. As a mid-size car, the fuel consumption performance of this model is excellent. In addition, this model also offers a hybrid version, which has even better fuel consumption performance. Below is more related information: Power configuration: The Accord is a mid-size car launched by Honda, equipped with an Earth Dreams series engine. Compared to engines in the same class, this engine has significant advantages and its power output is at a very high level. To meet the needs of many consumers, this model offers two versions: one is the hybrid version, and the other is the gasoline version. Engines of the 10th generation Accord: The 10th generation Accord is equipped with three engines in total, which are the low-power 1.5L turbocharged engine, the high-power 1.5L turbocharged engine, and the 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 electric vehicle.
I've been driving the 10th-generation Accord gasoline version for over a year, mainly for urban commuting. In city driving, the fuel consumption is generally around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, rising to 9 liters during peak traffic jams, but can drop to 7.5 liters when road conditions are good. Using the heater in winter or air conditioning in summer increases fuel consumption by 1-2 liters. It's recommended to activate the eco-driving mode and regularly clean the air filter to save fuel. If highway driving is included, the combined average fuel consumption is around 7.5 liters. The Accord's 1.5T engine has decent fuel efficiency, but actual consumption is heavily influenced by driving habits, such as sudden acceleration or frequent hard braking, which can increase the numbers. Overall, the 10th-generation Accord's fuel consumption is average for its class, suitable for daily commuting, but don't expect anything too impressive.
As an owner who frequently researches fuel consumption, I was a bit disappointed with the real-world fuel efficiency of the 10th-generation Accord gasoline version. Most owners report it fluctuates between 7 to 8.5 liters per 100 kilometers. In city traffic jams, it can go as high as 9 liters, while on highway cruising, it drops to just over 6 liters. This is 1-2 liters higher than the official data, mainly due to driving habits and road conditions. Gentle acceleration, avoiding speeding, and overloading can save a significant amount of fuel—for example, planning routes in advance to avoid congested areas. Compared to other B-segment cars, the Accord's fuel consumption isn't the worst, but it's not the best either. It has relatively high carbon emissions, so for long-term driving, it's advisable to combine carpooling or use public transport more often to offset the impact.
