As a nation, we currently import approximately 60% of our oil requirement The United States with 5% of the world’s population consumes 25% of the world’s oil production The United States has only 3% of the World’s oil reserves The United States is importing 10 million barrels of oil each day. At a cost of $60.00/barrel, we are spending $600 million/day for foreign oil Two-thirds of our oil requirement is consumed in the transportation sector Up to 80% of the pollution in urban areas is attributed to mobile source emissions

Not surprising the GX is the “Greenest” vehicle available! FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 15, 2005 WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Amidst excitement over new advanced technology vehicles entering the market and worries about sustained high gas prices, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) today announced this year's "greenest" and "meanest" vehicles, along with the environmental scorings of all model year 2005 cars and passenger trucks. The vehicle scores are part of ACEEE's Green Book® Online, the eighth annual edition of ACEEE's environmental guide to cars and trucks, available online at GreenerCars.com. Retaining the distinction as the greenest vehicle of the year is Honda's natural gas-powered Civic GX.

To put this into perspective…: 

To put this into perspective… The exhaust from the Honda Civic GX is often cleaner than the outside air you are breathing. One cup of gasoline spilt is more polluting to our environment than the exhaust from driving a Honda Civic GX 100,000 miles

Slide15: 

You are not compromising your safety in operating the Honda Civic GX The Honda Civic GX has been awarded a Five Star Frontal Rating for both Driver and Passenger by the NHTSA

Slide16: 

The Civic was crushed to the “B” pillar behind the driver’s seat. According to the NYSDOT fleet manager, the accident investigator stated that the strength provided by compressed natural gas fuel tank probably saved the driver’s life. The Driver walked away. There was no leak or rupture of the natural gas fuel tank or system. A NYSDOT employee was driving a dedicated natural gas Honda Civic GX on a public highway in the early summer of 2002. He was struck from behind by a fully loaded gasoline tanker truck.

Procurement Cost of the GX: 

Procurement Cost of the GX The cost of the GX is similar to the cost of available Hybrid sedans. In Colorado, available tax credits reduce the price of the GX to just $175 over the comparable gas Civic. In just six months, you will save enough in fuel costs to offset the difference completely. Not to mention the valuable time you will save traveling the HOV lane with a single occupant.
