While Yellow Clean Air Vehicle decals for hybrid vehicles have expired on July 1, 2011, the Honda Civic Natural Gas keeps qualifying for White Clean Air Vehicle decals, which are available in an unlimited quantity, as an Inherently Low Emissions Vehicle (ILEV).
“Civic GX drivers in California have long enjoyed the benefits of driving a compressed natural gas vehicle, whether it was saving time commuting in the carpool lane, paying lower fuel prices, reducing dependence on oil or reducing their CO2 footprint,” said Elmer Hardy, senior manager of alternative fuel marketing at American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
The 2012 Civic Natural Gas model, available in all the country’s showrooms by September, receives innovative features consistent with the entire all-new Civic lineup. Besides, city fuel economy improves by 12.5 percent, and highway fuel economy is up by 5.5 percent, compared to the 2011 model.
