2006 Honda Accord Hybrid

The Honda Accord Hybrid was launched in 2005. See the Honda Accord fact sheet for overall information about the Accord's safety, specifications, colors, and more.

2006 Accord Hybrid

The 2006 Honda Accord Hybrid is optimized for performance at 253HP. EPA estimates are 25/34 mpg for city/highway driving. A real time mileage survey of more than 75 drivers on greenhybrid.com confirms a blended average of 30 mpg.

The Accord Hybrid competes with the Toyota Camry Hybrid. The New York Times compared the two in an April 2006 review entitled "Hybrids for Ozzie and Harriet". The Camry has 147HP and the EPA estimates mpg of 38/40.

The Accord Hybrid engine is derived from the 2005 Honda Odyssey minivan and can shut off 3 of the 6 cylinders under certain conditions for better fuel economy (a technology that Honda calls Variable Cylinder Management (VCM)).
