Honda Accord Specs Guide: 2023, 2024, and 2025 Model Years
Key Takeaways
- Two powertrains, one body. The 2025 Honda Accord comes with either a 192-hp turbocharged 1.5-liter gas engine (LX, SE) or a 204-hp 2.0-liter two-motor hybrid (Sport, EX-L, Sport-L, Touring). There is no all-wheel-drive option.
- The hybrid is the efficiency play. Hybrid trims return 44 to 48 mpg combined, with the EX-L Hybrid the most efficient at 51 city / 44 highway / 48 combined. Gas trims manage 32 combined.
- 2025 MSRP runs $28,295 to $39,300. But sticker is only half the story. CarEdge's first-party data shows what buyers actually pay out the door and how fast the Accord holds its value.

The Honda Accord is one of the best-selling midsize sedans in America, and the current 11th-generation car (introduced for 2023) keeps the formula that made it famous: a roomy cabin, a choice of efficient powertrains, and strong long-term value. This guide lays out the full Honda Accord specs for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 model years, then pairs them with the one thing spec sheets never tell you: what the car actually costs to buy and own.

2025 Honda Accord Trim Levels Explained
LX (gas): $28,295
The entry point. You get the 192-hp 1.5-liter turbo, a 7-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, adaptive cruise, and Honda Sensing safety tech standard. It is well-equipped for the price but uses cloth seats and the smaller display.
SE (gas): $30,560
The SE keeps the gas engine and adds 19-inch wheels, heated front seats, remote start, and a few styling upgrades. It is the top gas trim before you move into the hybrids.
Sport Hybrid: $33,655
The volume seller and our value pick. The Sport Hybrid steps up to the 204-hp two-motor hybrid, a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen with Google built-in, sport styling, and 19-inch wheels. This is where the Accord gets noticeably quicker and far more efficient.
EX-L Hybrid: $34,940
Adds leather seating, a power passenger seat, a moonroof, and a premium audio system. It is also the most fuel-efficient Accord at 48 mpg combined, because it rides on more efficient wheels and tires than the Sport trims.
Sport-L Hybrid: $35,375
The Sport-L blends the Sport’s look with leather seating and added comfort features, slotting just above the EX-L on price.
Touring Hybrid: $39,300
The flagship. The Touring Hybrid loads on a head-up display, ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a Bose premium sound system, and HD Radio. It is the most expensive Accord and the most feature-rich.
What Changed Year Over Year
- 2023, full redesign. The 11th-generation Accord arrived with a new platform, cleaner styling, a more efficient two-motor hybrid system, and an available 12.3-inch Google built-in infotainment system. Honda dropped the previous generation’s optional 2.0-liter turbo, making the hybrid the performance choice.
- 2024, refinement year. Largely a carryover. Honda made minor feature and pricing adjustments while keeping the powertrains and trim structure intact.
- 2025, trim shuffle. Honda reorganized the lineup around the gas LX/SE and an expanded hybrid range (Sport, EX-L, Sport-L, Touring). The hybrid now accounts for the majority of Accord sales, and Honda continues to position it as the heart of the range.

What to Know Before You Buy
The Accord’s reputation is well-earned, but a spec sheet hides a few things worth knowing:
- Reliability is strong, with a software caveat. Consumer Reports rates the current Accord above average. The most frequent owner complaints are not mechanical; they center on the infotainment system lagging or freezing and occasional CarPlay/Android Auto dropouts. Test the screen thoroughly on your test drive.
- No all-wheel drive. Every Accord is front-wheel drive. If you live somewhere snowy and want AWD, the Toyota Camry now offers it.
- The hybrid is usually the smarter long-term buy. It is quicker, smoother, and returns 12 to 16 more mpg than the gas trims. Over a typical ownership period, the fuel savings often outweigh the higher sticker.
- The best value is in the middle. The Sport Hybrid captures most of what makes the Accord great without the Touring’s near-$40K price.
Before you commit to a trim, check how it holds value: review CarEdge’s Honda Accord depreciation data and Accord maintenance cost data to see the true cost of ownership.
The CarEdge Angle: Specs Are Only Half the Decision
Every site lists the same horsepower and MPG numbers. What separates a good purchase from a bad one is what you actually pay and how the car holds its value, and that is where CarEdge’s first-party data comes in:
- Real transaction prices vs. MSRP. The CarEdge Honda Accord pricing page shows what buyers are really paying in your market, so you know whether a dealer’s quote is competitive or padded.
- Depreciation curve. The Accord holds value better than most midsize sedans, but the gap between trims matters. Our depreciation data helps you pick the trim that costs the least to own.
- Watch the add-ons. A strong MSRP deal can evaporate at the F&I desk. Know which dealer fees and add-ons to refuse before you sign.
