The 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid uses a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder Earth Dreams engine making 143 horsepower and 129 pound-feet of torque paired to an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery pack. The engine connects directly to a motor-generator that powers the front wheels, and a second motor-generator is paired directly to the front wheels.
When you step on the gas, electric power kicks in first, and the engine works as a generator, powering the battery, which powers the front wheels. At higher speeds, the engine and transmission couple directly to the front differential, allowing the gas engine to drive the front wheels. The result is surprisingly quick acceleration for a hybrid.
But a hybrid's performance metric is fuel economy. The Accord Hybrid returns 49 mpg city, 47 highway, 48 combined. Those estimates top the Toyota Camry Hybrid, which returns 42/38/40; the Ford Fusion Hybrid, which gets 43/41/42; and the Chevrolet Malibu Hybrid, the only car that comes close, returning 49/43/46.
