• Due to excellent fuel economy, less fuel is used
• Vehicle Excise Duty is only £15 a year

Is there an environmental impact in making hybrid vehicles?

We’ve found very little difference in CO₂ emissions between making hybrids and making our regular vehicles. And, of course, there’s a huge reduction in emissions when our hybrids are out on the road.

What’s next for Honda hybrids?

Our next generation of environmentally-friendlier vehicles is already in production and aims to make hybrids more accessible for everyone, beginning with 2009’s all-new Honda Insight. This will be followed by a sporty, lightweight hybrid based on the CR-Z concept in 2010 and then a hybrid version of our popular Jazz.
