2019 Honda Accord Hybrid vs Ford Fusion Hybrid

When it comes to shopping for the right hybrid vehicle, there are two models whose non-hybrid counterparts have been proving themselves to be worthy of your attention. The 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid and the Ford Fusion Hybrid offer all the efficiency you’re looking for when commuting from the Bedford, Ellettsville, or Bloomington areas.

At Andy Mohr Honda, we want to give our shoppers the chance to get a closer look at both cars, head to head, so they can see which one works better for their needs. Whether you’re a single lady with serious wanderlust who wants something eco-friendly to drive around the country, or if you’re the head of a family that needs more space than other hybrid models offer, this outline will help you select the right vehicle.

When you look into the purchase of a new vehicle, there are several things you have to consider. One of those things is the amount of space you’ll have for yourself and your friends or family to get comfortable. The 2019 Accord Hybrid offers drivers 105.6 cu. ft. of total passenger space, while the Ford Fusion Hybrid offers 102.8 cu. ft.

In addition to passenger room, you’ll likely need some space in the trunk occasionally, whether you’re trying to pack the family grocery supply in there, or if you’re making room for the suitcases of your closest friends. The Fusion Hybrid offers 12 cu. ft. of space in the trunk, while the Accord Hybrid gives you over 4 cu. ft. more space with 16.7 cu. ft. total. That’s a difference of two additional carry-on bags.

Engine and Gas Mileage 

While both vehicles are running a hybrid Inline 4-Cylinder engine, only one has the performance advantage. The Fusion Hybrid offers the capability of up to 188 total horsepower, while the Accord Hybrid gives you the ability to reach 212 total horsepower. This advantage means the ability to accelerate a little faster when merging or moving with the flow of traffic on a busy highway.

One of the advantages that comes with the purchase of a hybrid vehicle is impressive fuel economy and both vehicles come to impress. The 2019 Accord Hybrid gives drivers an EPA-estimated* 48 MPG across the board (48 MPG city / 48 MPG highway), while the Ford Fusion Hybrid offers an EPA-estimated 43 MPG city /41 MPG highway. When you have kids in the car, you don’t want to stop for gas too often and the Accord allows you the capability to stay on the road longer.

Honda vs Ford: Safety

Both vehicles will offer drivers the standard setup for their vehicle safety features, such as:

• Driver and Passenger Front Air Bags
• Side Air Bags
• Traction Control System
• Anti-Lock Brakes

However, when it comes to the latest in safety features, only the 2019 Accord Hybrid offers standard Honda Sensing®, a suite of driver assist features that includes:

• Collision Mitigation Braking System™
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Traffic Sign Recognition
• Road Departure Mitigation System
