What is it?

The 11th-generation Accord is sold in Australia in a single high-specification e:HEV RS drive-away grade. The 2.0L Atkinson two-motor hybrid produces 152 kW combined and 335 Nm, with 4.3 L/100 km combined and a 573 L boot. No LX, no PHEV, just one fully specified hybrid sedan at a single price.

Single grade on offer in Australia. Warranty cover sits at 5 years, unlimited km.

Interior and Technology

4.3 L/100 km combined claim is real-world close. Single drive-away price removes negotiation. 573 L boot is large for a mid-size sedan. Honda Sensing 360 standard with traffic-jam assist. Heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, head-up display, Bose 12-speaker audio all standard.

$64,900 drive-away is rich for a 152 kW front-drive sedan. No AWD option, no PHEV variant for Australia. Mid-size sedan demand has collapsed against SUVs. Camry Ultra Hybrid offers a similar drivetrain for less.
