Engine options and horsepower
Note: The Accord lineup offers two engines. This section provides the horsepower numbers for each engine option and clarifies which trims use which engine.
- 1.5-liter turbocharged inline-4: 192 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. Used on the 2022 Accord Sport and most trims with the 1.5T, paired with a CVT.
- 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4: 252 horsepower and 273 lb-ft of torque. Available on higher trims (e.g., 2.0T variants), not on the base 1.5T Sport.
These figures reflect official horsepower ratings from Honda for the U.S. market. Your exact output can vary slightly due to equipment, emission controls, and measurement standards.
Transmission and performance notes
The 1.5T Sport uses a continuously variable transmission (CVT) aligned with the torque curve for efficient everyday driving. The 2.0T models use a 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering quicker throttle response and stronger acceleration when paired with the larger engine.
Summary
Bottom line: the 2022 Honda Accord Sport is rated at 192 horsepower with the 1.5-liter turbo engine. If you’re chasing more performance, consider higher trims that pair the 2.0-liter turbo with more power, though that configuration sits outside the standard Sport model.
