About the 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid
With an overall Carivo score of 8.3/10, the 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid earns a Recommended rating among the hybrids we've scored. Its strongest dimension is Reliability at 9.1/10, while Performance at 7.1/10 is where it trails the competition most noticeably. It's a solid all-rounder that delivers across most dimensions without obvious deal-breakers.
Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs. We rate the Honda Accord Hybrid's reliability at 9.1/10 — among the strongest in our hybrid database, reflecting the nameplate's track record and recall history. On safety it earns 8.4/10: respectable, if not class-leading — several competitors bundle more driver-assist tech as standard. Check your trim's official ratings at nhtsa.gov.
Performance lands mid-pack at 7.1/10: enough power and composure for everyday needs, without the dynamics that distinguish the segment's driver-focused options. Technology comes in at 7.8/10 — functional and modern, with wireless connectivity and core ADAS features, though some competitors pack more standard tech at this price point.
Priced from $28,891–$35,136, 43 MPG, seating 5, the Honda Accord Hybrid sits in the mid-market bracket of the hybrid segment. The 8.8/10 value score is the headline: relative to what it costs, this hybrid delivers more than most of the class. At 7 years old, resale value, parts availability, and whether a successor model has improved on its weak points are all worth investigating before committing.
Bottom line: Think of the 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid as the dependable pick rather than the exciting one. Shoppers who value predictability over headlines will be well served.
