    Happy New Year

    Welcome to 2021. Just checking in to see how these cars are holding up.

    1 Less Plug in on the Road

    Thanks Paperjo…. I check in from time to time. AWD & actual MPG…. it's been impressive. Driving a hybrid has really taught me how to maximize fuel economy in any car.

    1 Less Plug in on the Road

    I have owned the 328d for 6 months and put on approx 8,000 miles. I have averaged 45 mpg as measured in actual tank to tank fill ups. I get about 52-54 MPG on the highway vs about 46-49 on the Accord. City driving, no contest, Accord all the way. Things I miss about the Accord? Quiet in EV...

    1 Less Plug in on the Road

    Thank Papajo. Decided tp take a break from the hybrid world for a bit and bought a 2015 BMW 328d (diesel). I really like the 2017 Accord Hybrid, but they were expensive as a used car. Thinking I'd like to get a Clarity in a few years when they come off lease and are more depreciated. :D

    1 Less Plug in on the Road

    I wanted to thank everyone that helped me during my last 30 months of ownership. I was in an accident last week and the air bags deployed. Thankfully my daughter and I walked away unhurt. Car has been consider a total loss. I spent $2,200 in gas and drove 54,000 miles. Average MPG 59.2.

    Sudden battery drop

    Depends upon the temperature.... warmer more miles (up to 17.4 on the computer ) and maybe 13-15 in the colder months.

    Future Honda support

    I bought mine used last year, and I was concerned too. Ultimately, if the car goes 120k miles without issue, I win. If the price of gas goes to $4.00, I win. Not having to be in a Prius, I win. My car was a certified pre-owned, but my local dealers never saw one of these cars and have no ideas...

    Low 12v Battery and what can happen

    Just a quick heads up as our cars get a bit older.... watch your 12v battery. The car wouldn't "start" the other today. Headlights worked, dashboard error messages were all light up but the car would shift into R. Had the car jump started and drove around. I ended up at a Honda dealer and they...

    HV turns off randomly

    Thanks Marc. Maybe it doesn't matter too much, but I do get better MPG when the battery is charged. If my commute was 20 miles, I would get 70+ MPG....I drive 500-600 mikes a week. I do average about 52 MPG, so I'm pretty happy. I wonder if anyone on here has any stats on the mileage penalty to...

    HV turns off randomly

    Yes, that is exactly how I would use it. Having the car switch into EV isn't really great on the highway where the HV mode would be a better choice. There is another issue in the cold weather...there is no heat in EV mode. What irks me the most is that it just shouldn't be doing it and it is...

    HV turns off randomly

    The HV mode is essential if you want to control when and where the car goes into EV mode

    HV turns off randomly

    I have been driving my 2014 Accord PHEV for about 5 months. I have noticed an issue when the HV mode is selected and it randomly turns off. The only way to get back into HV mode is to turn the car off and restart. This is happening now 1-2 times a day and is really annoying when on the highway...
