Time to get to know the newest member of our long-term fleet, this 2024 Honda Accord.

The Accord was redesigned last year, kicking off its 11th generation here in the U.S., and we’ve had quite a few of those generations for extended tests over the years here at MotorWeek. No surprise as it is America’s best-selling car over the last 50 years.

Our Accord is sporting Touring Hybrid trim, which is the top trim available, and as you can gather comes with a hybrid powertrain, the fourth generation of Honda’s two-motor system which adds a pair of electric motors to an updated naturally aspirated 2.0-liter I4 for a combined output of 204 horsepower. It’s an upgrade over the standard Accord’s 192-horsepower 1.5-liter turbo and should deliver us a Combined 44 mpg.

This Radiant Red stunner has already made quite an impression on our drivers.

We’re at the point where we take hybrid powertrains for granted, forgetting they’re complicated, synchronized systems. But you would never know that driving this Accord Hybrid where the two electric motors work seamlessly with the gas engine. We also like being able to dial in more or less regenerative braking with these steering wheel paddles.

Inside, the new Accord is somewhat simplistic in design, but we’ve found it to be highly functional too, and the materials both look and feel great.
