The natural-gas-powered Civic GX is an extremely versatile car that has a multitude of uses. With all the possibilities, some of you might have specific questions about its capabilities. Below are the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions. And if you have a question that is not addressed, please don't hesitate to contact your Civic GX dealer.
Q: The Civic GX is a dedicated natural-gas vehicle. What does that mean?
A: A dedicated natural-gas vehicle, like the GX, runs exclusively on clean-burning natural gas. This guarantees 100% alternative-fuel use. Some other natural-gas vehicles use a "bi-fuel" system that doesn't offer the same economic and low-emissions benefits that a dedicated system offers.
Q: How clean are the emissions of the engine in the Civic GX?
A: The Civic GX engine produces almost no emissions. The amount of smog-forming emissions is near zero. In fact, the GX is the cleanest-burning internal-combustion vehicle in the world.*
*EPA Tier-2, Bin-2, and ILEV certification as of May 2007.
Q: How far can the GX go on a full tank of natural gas?
A: The GX can go approximately 170 miles before it runs out of fuel, according to the EPA.
Your actual driving range may vary, depending on driving habits, fill pressure and "fast fill" effects.
