The Accord Hybrid lineup undergoes several significant changes for the 2021 model year:
The front styling receives an update with freshened grille and fascia designs—and EX and above trims now feature LED low- and high-beam headlights.
The Accord Hybrid Touring gets a big styling boost with the addition of aggressive 19-inch machine-finished alloy wheels.
All trims are now equipped with Display Audio as well as Apple CarPlay®16 integration and Android Auto™17 integration.
A pair of 2nd-row USB charging ports is now standard on Accord Hybrid EX and above trims.
A wireless phone charger52 now comes standard on the Accord Hybrid EX and above trims for 2021.
For the first time on any Honda vehicle, Accord Hybrid EX, EX-L and Touring trims feature wireless Apple CarPlay® integration and Android Auto™ integration.
Also making its Honda debut on the Accord Hybrid Touring trim is a Low-Speed Braking Control68 that can apply the brakes if it senses the possibility of a collision while backing up.
A new rear-passenger seat-belt reminder helps promote seat-belt usage.
There’s also a new rear-seat reminder67 feature that alerts drivers to check the rear seat at the end of a drive if a rear door was opened at the beginning.
The Accord Hybrid EX-L joins the Touring trim in featuring front and rear parking sensors.
The Near Field Communication (NFC)31 is no longer offered on the Touring trim.
And there have been some adjustments to available colors inside and out.
