The world's highest level of environmental performance.
Exhaust emissions reduction pursued along with fuel economy, earning the Civic Hybrid Japanese Land, Infrastructure and Transport recognition as an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle.
The Civic Hybrid has achieved a fuel economy of 29.5km/L-the highest in the world for a 5-seater gasoline-powered production vehicle-meeting fuel consumption regulations for 2010. In addition, the engine's rear exhaust-port system ensures effective exhaust gas cleansing even when the engine is cold. These features, combined with a high-density, 900-cell 3-way catalytic converter and Honda's own original lean-burn-compatible, NOx adsorption-type catalytic converter earn the Civic Hybrid Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport recognition as an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle. Superior fuel economy, combined with low emissions. |

Emblem certifying an Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle
This emblem is awarded to vehicles achieving outstanding environmental performance by reducing exhaust emissions of HC and NOx to 75% below levels stipulated in year 2000 regulations. |
Overall vehicle recyclability of over 90%*
Almost all interior injection-molded parts are made of olefin resin for superior recyclability. Coding of all plastic parts and other measures result in an overall recyclability of over 90%*. We are also working to eliminate all lead, and have reduced lead content to 50% of 1996 levels.
*According to independent Honda measurement standards. |
