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 engine. 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 45-mpg 2008 Civic Hybrid*.
Honda's legacy of innovation is unmatched in the automotive industry. As always, our attention is focused on the future. For example, starting in 2008, select California drivers will be able to lease the FCX Clarity fuel cell vehicle. It's all part of Honda thinking in action.

Honda's environmental work is based on the efforts to advance clean and efficient technologies while continuing to develop and improve emerging technologies and alternative sources of fuel.

In the near future, gasoline will likely remain our main source of fuel. Honda will strive to increase the efficiency of our products as well as develop vehicles that run on alternative fuels such as natural gas in order to reduce emissions and minimize dependency on oil.

The best of both worlds, Honda hybrid vehicles combine the performance and convenience of gas with the efficiency of electricity.
