Car & Driver tests had the 0-60 time at 7.5 sec. for the 2022 Civic and 6.6 for the 2022 Accord both with CVT and 1.5T. The Civic is rated at 180 HP and the Accord at 192. The Accord is heavier so I'm surprised that the extra 12 HP made that much of a performance difference.

We all know the previous gen 1.5T has much more HP than rated, which is why 10th gen Civic has faster 0-60 time than 11th gen. The 1.5T Accord has different CVT so I'm not surprised it's faster.

Accord turbos are twin scroll. So more even pulses to the turbine.
