Honda ties up with SELEV, "Study of Extremely Low Emission Vehicles",
a Riverside program hosted by the University of California, which
shows the advantage of upgrading the internal combustion engine
technology in the reduction of vehicle emissions. Several years ago,
this reduction to some level has been conceived impossible but due to
the advancements in technology nowadays everything is made possible
and tangible to some extent.
Two years ago, this program has been launched primarily for the
dwindling environmental condition as the main reason. Among the
concerned partners of SELEV are the U.S Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), the California Air Resources Board (CARB), and the
Manufacturers of Emission Controls Association. The university's
College of Engineering Center for Environmental Research and
Technology (CE-CERT) spearheads this innovative research. The study
has been endowed by at least $10 million from Ford as a donation. The
amount has been of great help for the researchers in their tactics of
finding ways of lessening the fuel emissions of the new-generation
vehicles so as not to add up with the already degrading air pollution
that poses great risk to the people's health.
Going environment-friendly, no wonder, Honda Motors Corporation
continues to launch and introduce to the buying public low-emission
vehicles such as that of
