Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Honda Accord Hybrid than the Lexus IS 350. The Lexus IS 350 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Honda Accord Hybrid.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Honda Accord Hybrid as you will with the Lexus IS 350, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Honda Accord Hybrid is clearly a better financial choice over the Lexus IS 350.

Dimensions
The Honda Accord Hybrid is a little wider than the Lexus IS 350, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. If you go with the Honda Accord Hybrid, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Lexus IS 350.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Honda Accord Hybrid is significantly less powerful than the Lexus IS 350. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
The Honda Accord Hybrid has much less torque than the Lexus IS 350, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Honda Accord Hybrid and the Lexus IS 350.
