"Both GM and Toyota, along with Ford, Chrysler, and honda, were party to a lawsuit seeking to overturn a California law requiring vehicles to produce 30 percent less greenhouse gas emissions than today's models, by 2016—goals that are roughly equivalent to emission restrictions that came into force in Europe following implementation of the Kyoto treaty." - Mark Schapiro, Exposed: The Toxic Chemistry of Everyday Products and What's at Stake for American Power (Get the book.)

"Honda's hybrid sales for the first quarter of 2005 numbered 9,025, up from 6,169 for the same period last year, with the hybrid Civic's 8.2 percent quarterly drop attributed to the automaker's introduction of the new hybrid Accord. Ford sold 3,569 Escape hybrid SUVs during the quarter. Sales are going to escalate from here, and then branch out into a number of diversely fueled types of vehicles. But we also have to be aware of diluting the environmental integrity of the product. Today's hybrids have sacrificed miles per gallon for performance. The old hybrids demonstrated superior mpg." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "Honda Civic hybrid gets by on."10 The new hybrid Saturn that GM released in summer 2006 would only provide a 10 to 12 percent fuel improvement, which was hardly inspiring. But these are the hazards of coming in a distant third or fourth in the hybrid game. Today, increasing mpg and offering consumers a wide choice of fuels is the winning formula and one Ford and GM must adopt. All of the auto companies need to be creating flex fuel infrastructures with more ethanol fueling stations to be constructed in the Midwest and hydrogen stations in California." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) "Honda Insight debuted in the American market in 1999.7 In that year, only a couple of hundred Insights were sold. The sales of U.S. hybrids have generally doubled every year: ?2000 9,350 ?2001 20,287 ?2002 35,000 ?2003 47,525 ?2004 88,000 According to the Bloomberg news service, 35,474 hybrid vehicles were sold during the first quarter of 2005, with the Toyota Prius accounting for the greatest amount of sales?2,800, up from 9,918 for the comparable period of 2004." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Advanced engine technologies developed by Japanese automakers, Toyota and honda, have produced hybrid vehicles that are far more fuel-efficient than those with traditional internal combustion engines. Toyota's Prius is so popular that there is a six-month waiting list. Another step toward the Right-Side Up world is the fact that enterprising inventors have taken these hybrids, reworked the design, and achieved 250 miles per gallon, proving that major fuel efficiency can be had if the desire is there." - David H.

"More important, honda has simultaneously developed the latest generation of its Home Energy Station (HES). The Home Energy Station uses regular natural gas to create hydrogen to fuel the FCX at home. But the same system can also supply electricity to homes—the heat produced from refueling can even provide hot water. If it works as claimed, the FCX/Home Energy Station combo will not only slash carbon emissions by 40 percent, it will also cut combined electricity, gas, and fuel costs in half. A car that doubles as a home generator—that's more than an advanced form of transportation." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"In December 1999, when honda introduced the Insight with its "aerodynamic teardrop shape," it received a 70 mpg rating.8 But newer models, like the Escape, obtain from 29 to 33 mpg (its nonhybrid counterpart gets around 19 to 22 mpg).9 The Korean carmaker Hyundai announced it was entering the hybrid game, but unlike GM, Ford, or Daimler, which are licensing technologies to catch up, Hyundai was going on its own technologies, which already did not match up to Toyota. According to Business Week, "Hyundai has a long way to go on fuel economy. Its hybrid burns 5." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"The FCX line has been Honda's fuel-cell vehicle prototype for a few years now, but the first iteration was ill suited to regular use. Tiny, somewhat underpowered, and saddled with a driving range equal to about half that of a typical gasoline-fueled car's, the old FCX simply wasn't an attractive option. The new FCX design, however, changes all of that, and manages to induce the kind of auto lust that previous hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles couldn't muster." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "Several years ago, most people would have said that hydrogen-powered cars were the only solution—and exciting new developments from manufacturers like honda have restored faith not only in hydrogen cars but also in a future hydrogen economy. However, hydrogen development is more challenging than had originally been anticipated, and will clearly be slow to yield workable results. We can't assume that hydrogen-powered cars will be perfected in time to head off the potential shortages and disastrous environmental consequences of peak oil and global warming." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "Opposite, right: Honda's FCX fuel-cell stack could power the first commercially viable hydrogen car. sedans could get upwards of 80 miles per gallon and be carbon neutral. That's a cool ride. jc The Hydrogen Economy Hybrids and biodiesel cars are fine first steps, but they are only first steps —and baby steps at that. In order to avoid the troubles that we'll face when we hit peak oil, and to reduce emissions enough to ensure a bright green future, we need a whole new auto industry, one that is not dependent on fossil fuels." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"More than a year after we were sued, the second lawsuit premised on the law was filed-by emu ranchers against the honda Motor Company, whose television commercials they felt poked fun at emus. Emu prices had been plvunmeting for years, and I have a sneaking suspicion that the emu ranchers were secredy pleased to find an entity like honda with deep pockets to blame it on. It seems that, in Texas at least, you can't be too careful what you say about catde and emus." - Howard F.

"In 1989 the honda Accord family sedan outsold Fords popular Taurus; Toyota's Camry took over this lead position in 1997. Internationally, by the end of the 1990s, Toyota had sold over 29 million of its compact Corollas?making it the best-selling automobile in history. In addition, Japanese cars forced European manufacturers to confront the challenge of the evolving global marketplace and to examine the source of Japan's success. Consumer Electronics Cars were not the only consumer products at which Japanese companies excelled. In 1957 a Japanese company—later renamed Sony?" - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.)
