‘”>Other ( 2 ) Honda Civic FFV Honda will present the Honda Civic FFV (Flexible Fuel Vehicle) at this year’s Tokyo Motor Show. The Honda Civic FFV is already present in Brazil alongside the Fit FFV. Brazil was chosen because it has well established bio-ethanol fuelling infrastructure. The Honda Civic FFV has a 1.8 liter engine that develops 103kW(140PS) at 6,200rpm on ethanol and 102kW(138PS) and 6,200rpm on gasoline. The torque figures are 174Nm(17.7kg/m) at 4,300rpm for ethanol and 172Nm(17.5kg/m) at 5,000rpm for gasoline. Honda Press Release: Honda Flexible Fuel Vehicle (FFV) Honda’s heritage is steeped in research, technological developments, and a long-standing commitment to providing environmentally-sustainable transport. That’s why we’ve tried and tested all manner of options – solar powered vehicles, electric motors, fuel cell and hybrid technology. So it comes as no surprise that Honda is working on the development of biofuel cars, too. Honda firmly believes that the most effective way to significantly reduce CO2 emissions in the current UK marketplace is through petrol-electric hybrid technology. This is because the infrastructure and product is already currently available. For the future, our long-term solution is the fuel cell vehicle – FCX – which runs on compressed hydrogen and emits nothing but water. So you may wonder why Honda is developing an FFV? Well, in countries like Brazil, the biofuel marketplace is well-established and a comprehensive fuelling infrastructure already exists. Knowing of the potential environmental gains to be reaped from developing biofuels, in September 2006, Honda announced that it had created a new flexible fuel vehicle (FFV) system
