Vermont is loved for its breathtaking green landscapes and fresh air. That’s why we are so proud to carry vehicles from Honda, a manufacturer with a rich selection of electrified models. If you’re looking for a Honda dealership near Bennington that can help you understand which Honda hybrid is ideal for your driving style, visit us at Bedard Brothers Honda. We know all about the roads in this beautiful part of the country and will work hard to put you in a Honda hybrid that suits your lifestyle. Below, we’ll take a look at the hybrid models that Honda has available for the 2024 model year. Honda has also recently introduced the all-new and all-electric Honda Prologue SUV that utilizes no gasoline at all. Today, however, we’ll focus on hybrids because of their excellent range. Given Bennington’s proximity to so many incredible destinations, we know our customers appreciate the solid fuel economy of a hybrid.
The Honda Accord Hybrid
Many drivers are thrilled that Honda offers the Accord in a hybrid variant because it’s such a well-known vehicle. This model has been a part of the Honda lineup since 1976, and it simply delivers so much value to drivers. It’s a midsize sedan with generous passenger and cargo volume, meaning all your passengers will be more than comfortable in the Accord. Plus, its exterior boasts timeless, sophisticated styling. The first Accord Hybrid was introduced back in 2005, with the latest generation being unveiled for the 2023 model year. If you’re looking for the right business vehicle for work trips over to Albany, you’ll love the attractive Accord.
Fun Facts
Here’s what’s really cool about the Accord Hybrid: it has an EV mode. Under certain conditions, it can operate in electric-only mode, using zero gasoline and emitting zero emissions. If you’re serious about preserving the air quality in Bennington, you’ll love this aspect of the Accord Hybrid. Despite being efficient, the 204 hp is nothing to sleep on. Passing on Route 7 and accelerating from zero to 60 will feel like a breeze with this car’s power.
The Accord Hybrid also has driver-selectable models, including the option to create your own mode. You get to customize steering feel, throttle response, and other features to optimize performance exactly where and how you drive. Kind of cool, right? Customization continues with deceleration control. This feature allows you to decide the level of regenerative braking. Adjusting this can minimize wear and tear on brake pads and rotors over time.
The Trims
Shoppers can choose from several terrific trims for the 2024 Accord Hybrid. First, there’s the Accord Sport Hybrid. It gets you a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a gloss-black spoiler, a huge 12.3-inch touchscreen, and other elevated convenience and style features. Move up to the Accord EX-L Hybrid, and you’ll enjoy leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats (essential for Vermont winter mornings), heated side mirrors for melting away ice, and driver’s seat memory that recalls your preferred settings.
Then there’s the Sport-L Hybrid, with its track-ready styling details like a rear diffuser and 19-inch matte black alloy wheels. Finally, the top hybrid trim, the Accord Touring Hybrid, provides drivers who spend lots of time on the road with tons of great features, like Google built-in for looking up directions and information on the go and a Bose premium sound system for the ultimate listening experience for your music and podcasts. Plus, it has a head-up display that lets you see important information right in your line of sight.
The Honda CR-V Hybrid
You can’t live in this corner of the country and not want to explore all of the stunning green spaces around Bennington, like the iconic Long Trail through the Green Mountain National Forest. If your pioneer side is calling you, you’ll love the fact that the CR-V, Honda’s compact SUV, is available in a hybrid variant. The CR-V was introduced in 1995 and quickly became an integral part of the Honda lineup. The first hybrid variant launched in 2020, and the model was fully redesigned for the 2023 model year, making this a relatively new option in the Honda lineup.
Fun Facts
The CR-V Hybrid, like the traditional gas engine version, has an all-wheel drive option. That will come in handy during the famously snowy winter months in Vermont or when you want to leave paved roads for dirt and mud. Plus, it can tow up to 1,000 lbs. If you’re serious about experiencing the Green Mountains on an intimate level and sleeping in the wild, you can tow a small camper behind your CR-V.
The CR-V Hybrid might surprise you with what a fun behind-the-wheel experience it offers. That’s thanks to its Sport mode. Switch it on, and you’ll feel enhanced acceleration and steering responsiveness for a more thrilling drive. Want to keep an eye on the hybrid powertrain while you’re traveling? There’s a handy power meter, which shows you the battery’s power output and regenerative braking. You can see how your driving behaviors are (or aren’t) saving gas and make informed decisions.
The Trims
We also love to point out the generous trim options for the 2024 CR-V Hybrid. It’s available in a Sport Hybrid trim, with sporty styling, adventure-ready roof rails, and a one-touch power moonroof that lets the outdoors in. Then there’s the Sport-L Hybrid, which adds luxury features like leather-trimmed seats, wireless charging, and an eight-speaker sound system. Finally, there’s the Sport Touring Hybrid. With a Bose premium sound system, a hands-free power tailgate, and a heated steering wheel, this trim makes your commutes and daily errands more enjoyable.
