Most cars with good mileage need to compromise on other elements, such as size and power, to get as many miles for a gallon as possible. The 2019 Honda Accord manages to steer clear of such compromises, delivering excellent gas mileage while being a powerful and supremely comfortable sedan.
Trimmed Out
The 2019 Honda Accord is available in five trim levels: LX, Sport, EX, EX-L, and Touring. The base LX trim is equipped with many features that are only available as options for other vehicles, such as 17-inch alloy wheels, LED exterior headlights, taillights, and running lights, push-button ignition, as well as modern tech and safety equipment. It also features a powerful turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that can produce up to 192 horsepower and 192 pound-feet of torque, available as standard for all trims except the top Touring trim.
Thanks to the modern technology found on the 1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT engine, the standard 2019 Accord is not only agile and powerful but also has great gas mileage.
The 2019 Honda Accord’s second engine also manages to blend power and efficiency. It’s a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with up to 252 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque that’s available on the Sport, EX-L, and Touring models, helped by a smooth 10-speed automatic transmission.
Efficiency without Compromise
Despite the good overall mpg numbers, there were no compromises made when it came to the 2019 Honda Accord’s performance and comfort levels. Even when equipped with the basic 1.5-liter engine, the Accord can still reach a speed of 60 miles per hour from a standstill in a respectable 8 seconds, also only needing 122 feet to get back to a standstill from 60 miles per hour. Honda’s CVTÂ automatic transmission plays a big role in keeping the gas consumption low and the performance levels high by perfectly optimizing every gear change.
No compromises were made in the comfort and technology front either. The 2019 Accord has a very spacious cabin, with high-quality materials and stylish design. Getting in and out is a breeze thanks to the wide door openings, while all infotainment features are easy to access with the help of a 7-inch touch-screen that can be upgraded to 8 inches. Smartphone connectivity is easily achievable through Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and USB ports, with everything also being accessible via voice control.
There are many options available on the market for gas-efficient cars, but the list gets significantly smaller if you want a vehicle that’s not only efficient but also powerful and comfortable. The 2019 Honda Accord ticks all these boxes and many more, managing to offer maximum satisfaction with low fuel consumption.
