The 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid Arrives in Central Florida

ORLANDO, Fla. - June 29, 2016 - PRLog -- Central Florida Honda Dealers is proud to announce that after a year off, the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid is back and better than ever. While the 2016 Honda Accord Sedan has had no trouble going up against competing vehicles like the 2016 Toyota Camry, the new hybrid version is ready to take on the most efficient hybrid sedans.

The next generation of the Accord Hybrid features an upgraded engine that delivers a combined 212 hp between its electric and gasoline motors, and it receives a fuel economy upgrade to an EPA-estimated 49 city, 47 highway, and 48 combined mpg.* There are three different driving modes that allow the driver to get the most out of the engine:

* EV Drive: This mode uses just the electric motor and battery to conserve fuel on short drives.

* Hybrid Drive: Everyday driving has the hybrid mode, meant to combine the performance of the battery and the motor to contribute to that 49 mpg city fuel economy.

* Engine Drive: Sometimes a driver just needs extra power, and this mode optimizes the sedan for performance.

The engine is just part of the Accord Hybrid; its interior features are just as impressive as the powertrain. Standard amenities include the Honda Sensing features, like lane departure warning, collision mitigation braking, forward collision warning, and more.

Cabin features like Bluetooth connectivity, a 7-inch display audio touchscreen interface with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, HondaLink telematics, remote engine start, and more push this Accord even closer to its luxury-priced competition. Upgrade options like heated front and rear seating, navigation, front and rear parking sensors, and rain-sensing wipers are available on the upper trims of the Accord Hybrid.

To learn more about the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid, readers are encouraged to contact a Central Florida Honda Dealer. They have locations all around Central Florida with the latest Honda vehicles and a service center staffed by Honda-trained technicians. The hybrid isn't always for everyone, but between it and the regular Accord, there's a midsize sedan for most drivers-read this 2017 Ford Fusion review to see how it compares to the Accord.
