For three decades, Honda has played a leading role in meeting environmental challenges.
The Good Old Days
Way back in 1975, the Honda Civic CVCC became the first vehicle to pass the emissions requirements of the Clean Air Act without using a catalytic converter.
The Good New Days
The 2009 Civic features technological achievements that are every bit as impressive as its predecessor’s. Today's Civic Coupe sports a 1.8-liter engine that provides exceptional fuel economy (25 mpg city/36 mpg highway),* and qualifies as an Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicle (ULEV-2).
