Honda thinking in action
When it comes to talking about the environment, we let our products speak for themselves. In 1974, Honda introduced the ingeniously simple Civic CVCC. World-changing for its fuel efficiency and low emissions, the CVCC demonstrated our spirited commitment to environmentally responsible technology. Many other firsts were to follow, such as the first hybrid vehicle sold in North America and the first government-certified fuel-cell car. This legacy of innovation and acting on our beliefs is seen in every Honda product, like the 2008 45-mpg highway* Civic Hybrid.
Honda's legacy of innovation is unmatched in the vehicle industry. As always, our attention is focused on the future. For example, a California family is already driving a limited-production Honda FCX hydrogen fuel-cell car in the Los Angeles area on a daily basis. It's all part of Honda thinking in action.
