New 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid
 

Anyone else have a new 2015 model? We are downsizing so traded our 2011 Toyota Sienna SE for this red accord. We wanted the base model as we don't care for leather. Color and trim choices were very limited here in the south central Texas area. No negotiating of price and car was sold at MSRP. We did get a really good trade in allowance on the van with only 16700 miles on the clock. Really wanted the Champagne color but settled for red. It was enroute to the dealer when we made the initial contact. Picked it up the day after it arrived. Very pleased with it so far. Dealer stated these cars don't last but 36-48 hours once they hit the lots here in Texas. Added a few pictures to photo album on the site.

Hi

I just bought a 2015 accord hybrid touring black on black, I got it here in DC area for 3050 less than msrp.

Good Luck with your purchase.

Thanks

Good luck with the new car. I here it's pretty expensive to own a car in the DC area with all the added property taxes. Hopefully the fuel savings and discount you received will offset some of those costs.

I picked up my 2015 Silver on black Ex-L Tuesday! It has been fun to drive so far. Im curious how a New England winter will impact MPG. I joined this forum to get more information regarding battery charge. My battery has not charged over about 50%. Have either of you noticed this?

Re: New 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid
 

I think a lot depends on how you drive. If you spend a lot of time in EV mode then the battery will never reach a full charge at least in my experience. We drive about 50% hwy/city so the battery runs about 1/2 to 3/4 on the gauge. We are in south Texas so the climate control system is always on which would also impact battery charge since most everything is all electric. Were still on the first tank of gas at 555 miles with 189 to go according to the computer so were pleased with the car and the endurance.

Congrats on your Red Accord.
My Mother just picked a Champagne Malabu, which is a very popular color and as mentioned, do not stay on a lot very long.

However, she has the same problem I had when I picked up my 14 white HT; hers came in from OH, mine from NY w/holes drilled in the front body colored bumper cover. She will have to have the holes plugged, on a brand new car!
Dealers from states requiring front plates drill right off the carrier, not caring if the vehicle goes out to a state w/a single plate. I raised hell w/mine so they literally ripped a cover off a car on the lot for a swap, cracking it in the process (not visible).

Luv my gov!
