How many miles does an Accord get on a full tank?

Most gasoline Honda Accord models deliver roughly 440–490 miles per tank, depending on engine and driving conditions; Accord Hybrid variants can exceed 550 miles and may reach about 650 miles on a full tank.


Overview: tank size and fuel economy by configuration


To estimate range, multiply the average miles per gallon by the fuel tank capacity. For recent Accords, the typical gasoline model uses a 14.8-gallon tank, while the hybrid version generally has a smaller tank—around 12 gallons—though exact figures vary by year and trim. Here are representative figures for current-era models.


Gasoline Accord models


Non-hybrid Accords use the same basic 14.8-gallon tank, with efficiency differing by engine choice.



  • 1.5L turbo with continuously variable transmission (CVT): about 30 mpg city / 38 mpg highway / ~33 mpg combined, yielding roughly 490 miles per full tank.

  • 2.0L turbo with 10-speed automatic: about 26 mpg city / 35 mpg highway / ~30 mpg combined, yielding around 440 miles per full tank.


Note: Real-world results vary with driving style, terrain, and conditions, so actual range can be higher or lower than these estimates.


Accord Hybrid


The hybrid pairings deliver higher overall efficiency, with a typical combined rating around 47 mpg and a smaller tank compared to the gasoline-only models. Estimated range is commonly in the mid-500s to low-600s miles per tank, depending on exact tank size and driving conditions. Some trims with slightly larger tanks can push toward the upper 600s.



  • Hybrid (latest generations): ~47 mpg combined; estimated range around 560 miles on a typical ~12-gallon tank, with potential 620–660 miles if the tank is larger on certain trims.


In practice, the exact range you’ll see on a full tank depends on the model year, trim, and real-world driving conditions such as city traffic versus highway cruising.


Bottom line


For most drivers, gasoline Accords offer roughly 440–490 miles per full tank, while Accord Hybrid variants typically yield about 560–660 miles per tank, with the exact figure influenced by tank size and how you drive.


Summary: The Honda Accord’s range per tank varies by configuration. Non-hybrid gasoline versions generally deliver around 440–490 miles per full tank, while Accord Hybrid models commonly achieve about 560–660 miles, with real-world results shaped by engine, tank size, and driving conditions.

How many miles is 1 gallon Honda Accord?


The Honda Accord LX and EX models are the only two non-hybrid trim levels available, and they output a similar fuel efficiency of 29 city mpg, 32 combined miles per gallon, and 37 highway miles per gallon1.



How many miles can a Honda Accord go on a full tank?


These numbers combined with a fuel tank capacity of 14.8 gallons allow the Honda Accord to deliver up to 474 miles of range in total, while the Honda Accord Hybrid can reach 614 total miles on a full tank.



Can you drive 20 miles on empty?


“Typically, it will light up when the tank is below 10% to 15% of its capacity.” In general, after the gas light comes on, Muñoz says it's safe to drive about 20 to 30 miles in a smaller vehicle or up to 50 miles in a larger vehicle.
