Reduction in
substances of
concern
Lead5
Met the target set by JAMA (1/10 of the 1996 level)
Mercury6
Met the target set by JAMA (use prohibited in and after January 2005)
Hexavalent chromium
Refer to “Reduction in substances of concern”
Cadmium
Met the target set by JAMA (use prohibited in and after 2007)
Recycling
Recyclability7
At least 90% of the entire vehicle
Material labeling on resin and rubber parts
All resin and rubber parts large enough for such labeling
Parts made using easily recyclable materials
Many of interior and exterior parts, cowl top garnishes, glove boxes, sun visors, shift knobs, center consoles, dust sealers, door molds, door linings, and pillar garnishes
Parts made using recycled materials
Undercovers, splash guards, and sound insulating materials
Use of substances of concern
Lead
In use
Electronic boards, solders for electronic parts, piezoelectric elements (PZT sensors), and bearing
No longer in use
Electrodeposition coating, fuel hoses, wheel balancers, vinyl chloride and rubber parts, valve seats, and fuel tanks
Mercury
No longer in use
Hexavalent chromium
In use
Used for rustproof coating of metal parts, bolts and nuts
Replaced with other material
Brake calipers, pipes, brackets, galvanized parts, and coated parts
Cadmium
No longer in use
IC chips for electric and electronic parts
Remarks
1. FF stands for “front-engine/front-wheel drive”
2. Complies with long-term CO2 emission standards for passenger vehicles and light-duty vehicles
3. : Low emission vehicle with an emissions level 50% lower than the 2005 exhaust emissions standards
: Low emission vehicle with an emissions level 75% lower than the 2005 exhaust emissions standards
4. Eco driving support devices, including real-time fuel economy meters, average fuel economy meters, and eco lamps
5. Lead batteries are excluded from the reduction target because a separate recovery and recycling channel has been established for these batteries.
6. Mercury used in very small amounts in parts required to ensure traffic safety, such as liquid-crystal displays for navigation systems, combination meters, discharge headlights, and in-vehicle fluorescent lights, is excluded from the reduction target.
7. Based on Honda’s own calculation criteria

Note: Fuel economy values were obtained under predefined testing conditions and may vary in actual driving, depending on the weather, road, driving techniques, and maintenance situations.
