New Honda City passes Euro 4 standards

August 07,2015

honda-city-2016-2hondaHONDA Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) announced that the New City has officially acquired Euro 4 emission standard certification from Department of Environment and Natural Resources. This is the first vehicle in Honda’s line-up to be locally certified with Euro 4-level emission standards.
The certification is pursuant to the DENR’s Administrative Order No. 2015-04, which mandates all new passenger and light vehicles, and heavy-duty motor vehicles made available in the market to comply with Euro 4 emission standards by January 2016 from the present Euro 2 emission standards.
HCPI first introduced Euro 4 level-ready products in 2004. By the end of 2006, all Honda models sold in the Philippines were already at Euro 4 emission level.

The DENR stresses the importance of adopting Euro 4 emission standards for the sake of minimizing pollutants in the environment and for the assurance of the quality of air that we breathe. A Euro 4-compliant vehicle emits much lower harmful substances such as carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons  and nitrogen oxide.

In line with the idea to minimize pollutants, Honda always keeps in mind leaving behind a cleaner and greener environment, which is why Honda produces products that are environment friendly, of high-quality, and are safe to use.

Honda assures customers that the emissions coming from its vehicles have minimal effect on the
environment.
As HCPI president and general manager Toshio Kuwahara mentioned during its HR-V and New City launch event, “It has always been one of our thrusts to leave blue skies for our children.
“As part of our continuing mission to do so, we at Honda are one with the government’s endeavor to help protect and sustain our environment and do our part to ensure breathable clean air. We would like to assure our customers that Honda takes proactive actions to help contribute in reducing the destruction of our ozone layer and the effect of global warming.”
As of present, Honda is proactively applying for certification of the rest of its vehicle lineup.
Kuwahara explained that, “By January 2016, all Honda vehicles, from the smallest Brio to the Odyssey minivan, will be officially certified as Euro 4 compliant.”
