I would like to thank Honda once again for proving other automakers wrong.
Seems that too many people out there were bitchin and complaining that the new diesel standards were too strict. As usual, Honda puts it money into engineering and proves other car makers wrong. This is the exactly what Detroit did ~30 years ago when the first round of pollution-limiting legislation passed. If they only had the same work ethic as the Japanese, they would have put their money into engineering and not wasted it on lobbying for looser standards. |

Supposedly Mercedes' new diesel was the cleanest in the world with a ureaic acid NO scrubber, and it didn't pass California's tests. Let's just wait and see what happens here. |

I heard that the Mercedes diesel failed because you had to periodically add the magic NOx scrubber fluid and since Honda's design doesn't require any extra additives...

Nice! I am anxious to see this come to North America.
But where exactly did you get this article? |

CA is a big enough market where they can throw around their weight to get what they want - and that ends up being better for all of us in the long term. My state has fairly bad pollution due to our proximity to NYC - but we would be too small to demand changes like CA is pushing through. But because of their push, we will eventually benefit too. This diesel issue isn't "magic" - it is simply an engineering problem that will get solved through R&D. Let the engineers do their work and we will have diesels that give us the torque and gas mileage we want, with lots less pollution. |

Honda's President, Takeo Fukui, stated at a mid-year press conference on 7/18/07 that:
* The clean diesel engine will power Hondas in the US from 2009http://response.jp/issue/2007/0718/article97008_1.html |

FYI Tier II Bin 5 is roughly equivalent to ULEV II standards. So it should pass if it can do what it claims. Looks like we have a real hybrid challenger! (as far as cost and environmental impact)
Indeed go Califonria (Go bears). |

well, it'll be awesome if you don't need to add in special stuff once in a while.
I can't wait for the upcoming diesels that are coming to the North American market |
