I ordered my Accord Hybrid EX-L today. I found the salesmen said different things. When I drove the first one I ask about replacing the batteries. He said they would need to be replaced between 80 and 120000 miles and cost 1500 a piece. Today, the after sale guy said they cost 5000 a piece when trying to get me to buy the most expensive service packages. I've done some research and found they usually don't go bad early. I suspect it was a scare tactic.
I also wonder if the regeneration is during braking only as my habit is taking my foot off the pedal and coasting before I brake when I see a stoplight. Today the guy said slowing would regenerate just as well as braking. Later, he said he had just gotten the job and didn't know much about hybrids.
Thanks for your input.
