Well, you will probably save some gasoline over doing the same thing with a non-hybrid equivalent of each. In the case of the Accord you reap the benefit of the most powerful drivetrain available for that car. (Of course, that's probably going to get you the lowest gas mileage of the bunch...you have to pay to play.) But if you are accelerating at full-throttle from light to light and waiting until the last minute to slam on the brakes, driving at 80-90mph, etc., then no car will get you fantastic fuel mileage. Whether it's worth it to pay extra for the hybrid option depends on your expectations and just how inefficient your driving style is.
