Reduction of In-vehicle Volative Organic Compounds (VOC)

Honda has long been working to reduce in-vehicle VOC emissions. For the new Civic, we changed the processing methods, adhesives, and materials used in making interior parts to reduce VOC emissions, including formaldehyde and toluene. Moreover, we attached high-performance deodorizing filters to all grades as standard equipment, thereby reducing in-vehicle VOC emissions and odor to an amount below that set by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in its guidelines for in-vehicle VOC content.
We will comply with the guidelines for all new models that we release in the future.
