Honda Civic GX

The Honda Civic GX was the Japanese company's response to offer the best technology to combat air pollution and rising Crude Oil prices. Resting under the bonnet is the cleanest Internal combustion ever made. The natural gas powered Civic GX is very firm when it comes to hugging trees, thanks to the near zero emissions from its engine.

Talk about safety, and it gets a bit more interesting. The Civic GX hasn't shed any of the safety features that its gasoline engine variant boasts of. All the safety features, dual front airbags, front passenger's side impact airbag, ABS and Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering Body structure TM (ACE TM), come standard, so there is no compromise on the safety aspect.

CNG is a safe fuel as in the event of a leak, the gas would dissipate into air rather than how gasoline drips and collects under the car. CNG has a higher Octane rating than conventional gasoline thereby allowing the engine to operate at a higher compression ratio which results in elevated efficiency.

Maintenance is cheap as carbon deposits in the engine are not present which is not the same condition observed with gasoline fueled engines. As a result, oil change is required only once every 10,000 miles. Costly overhauling jobs are avoided because of carbon deposits' absence.

The Civic GX was not a car that happened due to the success of the conventional Civic. It was in fact built and developed alongside its petrol sibling to offer customers a car that was easy on their wallet and on the environment. One of its renowned accolades was the prestigious Motor Trend Car of year award in 2006.
