| Remarks | — | |||
*1: FF=Front engine, front-wheel drive; 4WD=4-wheel drive
*2: Complies with long-term CO2 emission standards for passenger and light-duty vehicles
*3: ★★★: Low-emissions vehicle with emissions 50% lower than 2005 standards; ★★★★: Low-emissions vehicle with emissions 75% lower than 2005 standards
*4: Eco Drive support devices, including real-time fuel economy meters, average fuel economy meters and eco lamps
*5: Lead batteries are excluded from the reduction target, as a separate recovery and recycling channel has been established
*6: Mercury used in minute quantities required to ensure traffic safety (in parts such as LCDs for navigation systems, combination meters, high-intensity-discharge headlights and interior fluorescent lights) is excluded from the reduction target
*7: Based on 1998 JAMA guidelines for defining and calculating new-vehicle recyclability
Note: Fuel economy values obtained under predefined testing conditions. Fuel economy may vary under actual driving conditions (depending on weather, road surface, manner of driving, vehicle maintenance, etc).
