What is New for the 2025 Honda Accord?
Next year, the Honda Accord will have been on sale for 50 straight years, impressive. But we’re still in 2025 with the 11th-gen model that debuted in 2023. Changes over the 2024 Accord include dropping the EX trim and adding an SE variant. It sits above the base Accord LX with black trim and desirable content like heated front seats. Other updates include rear A/C vents and USB ports across the 2025 Accord lineup, a wireless phone charger on Sport models, and a heated steering wheel for the range-topping Touring.

2025 Honda Accord Powertrain 9.5/10
The two lower 2025 Accord trim lines, LX and SE, are powered by a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder making 192 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque. A CVT routes power to the front wheels only as Honda does not offer all-wheel drive for the Accord. Fuel economy is strong at 29 mpg city, 37 mpg highway, and 32 mpg combined. But, the hybrid models best these variants in all metrics.
Standard from the Sport Hybrid model and above, the 2025 Honda Accord hybrid powertrain blends a naturally aspirated 2.0L inline-4 with a small battery-powered electric motor to generate 204 hp and 247 lb-ft of torque. A CVT and FWD are the only options here as well, but fuel economy jumps to 46/41/44 mpg in city/highway/combined driving for Sport and Touring hybrids or 51/44/48 mpg, respectively, in the EX-L. The hybrids are also faster from 0 to 60, doing the run in 6.5 seconds.
2025 Honda Accord Interior 9.25/10
Strictly a 5-seater, the 2025 Accord interior is pleasant if a bit staid – the only color options are black or a black-gray two-tone design. Cloth comes standard with leather fitted to EX-L trims and above. All models have active noise canceling tech to keep the cabin serene, but an acoustic laminated windshield and front door glass are exclusive to the Touring.
As for space, 41 inches of second-row legroom is relatively big as the Toyota Camry comes in at 38 inches in this metric. The Camry also trails the Accord in trunk space with 15 cubic feet to the 17 found in the Honda. Be aware that the back seat folds down in all models, but for a 60/40 split configuration, you’ll need at least an Accord SE.
2025 Honda Accord Technology Features 9/10
A 7” central touchscreen with wired Apple and Android smartphone mirroring is the standard infotainment setup on the 2025 Accord. On Sport Hybrid models and above, this is upgraded to a 12.3” screen and wireless connection. Every Accord has a digital instrument panel and a Wi-Fi hotspot, but only Touring trims feature a head-up display (HUD) and Bose audio system with 12 speakers.
Under the Honda Sensing suite of advanced driver aids every 2025 Accord is fitted with forward collision mitigation, a lane-keeping system, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams. There are 10 standard airbags, which help the Accord earn a 5-star overall safety rating from the NHTSA and a Top Safety Pick+ award from the IIHS (for the 2024 model year).
2025 Honda Accord Trims & Pricing
LX – $28,295
The sub-$30,000 Accord LX comes with 17” alloy wheels, full LED exterior lighting, and cloth upholstery in your choice of black or two-tone black and gray. These entry-level models also have a 4-speaker stereo, HondaLink connectivity, and dual USB ports front and rear.
SE – $30,560
New for 2025, the SE variant adds black exterior accents, including the wheel finish, heated front seats with power-adjustability on the driver’s side, and a moonroof. Other SE highlights include dual-zone automatic climate control, 4 more stereo speakers, and blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert.
Sport Hybrid – $33,655
Along with the hybrid powertrain, which is included from here on up, these Sport models have black 19” wheels, a rear spoiler, leather wrapping for the steering wheel and shifter, memory settings, and a wireless phone charging pad.
EX-L Hybrid – $34,940
EX-L Hybrids add heated side mirrors, black or black-and-gray leather upholstery, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a power-adjustable passenger seat, and parking sensors.
Sport-L Hybrid – $35,375
Matte black 19” wheels and a black finish for the rear spoiler and rear diffuser add a dash of spice to the Accord Sport-L Hybrid. Black leather is the only interior option and these Accords also feature Alexa Built-In.
Touring Hybrid – $39,300
The range-topping 2025 Accord Touring Hybrid boasts acoustic laminated front glass, climatized front seats, heated rear outboard seats, and a heated steering wheel. Other touches include Google built-in, a 6” HUD, and a Bose audio system.
2025 Honda Accord Overall Value 9.5/10
The 2025 Accord in EX-L Hybrid spec is easy to recommend as it’s reasonably priced, has the best fuel efficiency of the lineup, and is very nicely equipped. For similar money the 2025 Camry XSE does deliver better fuel economy from its hybrid powertrain and offers AWD. But it is smaller on the inside and only matches Honda on warranty coverage with a 3-year basic term, 5 years on the powertrain, and 2 years of complimentary maintenance.

It’s hard to find major flaws with the 2025 Honda Accord. AWD is offered by the competition, but a nice set of snow tires solves any winter driving concerns. And only the most expensive Touring variants bring tech like a HUD and Bose audio system. That said, there’s plenty to like in the rest of the 2025 Accord lineup. Such as the very reasonably priced base LX with its long roster of driver aids, the sharply dressed Sport-L Hybrid, and the sweet spot EX-L Hybrid. The manual transmission is missed, but Honda still manages to deliver a desirable Accord for 2025. For those interested in the Accord, but for less money, don’t miss this comparison of used Honda Accords.
