Honda is well-known for producing seriously reliable, safe and fuel-efficient vehicles. While many of the brand’s gas-powered models can reach incredible mpg, if you’re ready to take your sustainability to the next level, we recommend checking out the Honda hybrid lineup. As of 2023, Honda offers two hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), one sedan and one SUV. This means that drivers with a variety of needs can take advantage of the reduced emissions and fuel economy a Honda hybrid offers. Whether you need the roominess of the Honda CR-V Hybrid or the sleek style of the Honda Accord Hybrid, you’ll find what you’re looking for in our new vehicle inventory. Keep reading to learn more about the Honda hybrid lineup and the benefits of driving an HEV!
What Are the Benefits of Driving a Honda Hybrid?
Fuel Efficiency
Driving a hybrid can help you save money on gas, since your vehicle’s engine will work in tandem with electric motors to help you burn less fuel (and produce fewer emissions). You’ll get amazing gas mileage, which means fewer stops at the fuel pump on long road trips! Choose either of the Honda hybrid models for mind-blowing mpg. The 2024 Honda CR-V Hybrid 2WD can reach an EPA-estimated 40 mpg combined,1 while the 2024 Honda Accord EX-L Hybrid is capable of an EPA-estimated 48 mpg combined.2
Long-Term Savings
Buying a hybrid doesn’t just come with fuel savings — you can save on maintenance as well! Hybrid models are typically less expensive to maintain than gas-powered vehicles. While research is still being done to determine why, it may be because the hybrid’s engine is working in conjunction with the electric motors,3 causing the engine to experience wear and tear more gradually than it would without the electrified elements.
Honda Hybrid FAQs
Ever since the introduction of the brand’s experimental EV Plus electric vehicle in 1997, Honda has been continually innovating in order to bring drivers the best in eco-friendly driving. With plans to transition to selling only zero-emission vehicles by 2040,4 Honda is embracing electrification and making ambitious plans to offer customers more and more sustainable vehicle options — such as the upcoming Honda Prologue, a fully electric SUV that’s scheduled to be released in early 2024. We can’t wait to see what else Honda has in store!
It depends on the model you choose. As hybrid technology has become more accessible, the MSRP difference between vehicles with electrified powertrains and those with regular gasoline engines has become smaller. However, even if the hybrid you’re considering has a higher MSRP than its non-hybrid counterparts, keep in mind the long-term savings you’ll enjoy. Your fuel costs will dramatically decrease, and you’ll spend less to maintain a hybrid.
Regenerative braking is one of the most ingenious systems in a hybrid vehicle. When you press the brake in your Honda hybrid, the kinetic energy created by braking is converted into electric power. This power is then used to recharge the battery.
