After reading the title, you might think we’re about to get into the 2019 Hybrid Honda vehicles right away, but we won’t because we want to remind you first that the Japanese manufacturer is a pioneer when it comes to the protection of the environment. It has been concerned by this issue for 55 years now and is constantly thinking of doing what’s best for future generations. "A Blue Sky for Our Children" is the vision that drives Honda to reduce its CO2 emissions on both its vehicles and facilities.

Its sustainable development policy focuses on recycling, environmental responsibility and influence. "Recycling and conserving resources at all stages of the life cycle of our products" is a motto that allowed the Japanese giant to reduce its greenhouse emissions by 25% by inventing a smart paint technology during construction of its products. In this respect, Honda vehicles are designed to be 90% recyclable. This standard has been in effect since 2004.

While recycling plays a major role in Honda's facilities around the world, the Japanese manufacturer also assumes its responsibilities in terms of public health and the environment. By renovating its Alliston plant, the company was able to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 44%. In addition, Honda Canada's head office in Markham, Ontario, is largely environmentally-conscious. Indeed, the workspace offers a lot of brightness to employees and beautiful views to the outside. In addition, this building is subject to lighting that consumes 33% less energy and uses up to 89% less water than a building of comparable size. As a result, the company has managed to avoid sending 99% of its waste to landfills in 2017. Without unduly distorting the reality, Honda Canada is a responsible company when it comes to the environment.

Finally, in terms of the influence that we can exert on the society, we try first to give the example. The company will have been one of the first global manufacturers to obtain the ISO 14001 certification in North America. Honda's environmental strategy is broadly based on understanding the effects of our current actions on future generations. As a world leader in the automotive industry, Honda is unquestionably a pioneer in its vision of improving the environment while pursuing its niche of excellence, namely the mobility on the road.

To link its strategic elements to the input of the car manufacturer, let's talk a bit about its three hybrid / electric models.

In 2000, the company was the first hybrid car manufacturer in Canada. The Hybrid Accord was its first electric vehicle offering a combination of a conventional gasoline engine and an electric motor. This hybrid mode has been building a cleaner future for several years now. At your Honda Longueuil dealership, one occasion after the other, on the South Shore, near the Greater Montreal Area, let's demonstrate that the environment is important to us. Thus, we have for you the 2019 Honda Accord with its redesigned and very powerful hybrid system. What's more, our list of vehicles in electric mode is not limited to this spacious and audacious sedan, so we need to tell you a few words about the all-new Honda Insight. Both ecological and elegant, this powerful and refined car distinguishes itself by its ingenuity and its 1-VTEC®, 1.5-liter, 4-cylinder DOHC engine with 16 valves and continuously variable transmission. Its electric motor is powered by a long-lasting lithium ion battery. This high-end vehicle will allow you to take the fast lane without having to stop at the gas station.

This is a hint that Honda wants to do more for the planet. It does it here with and style since the 2019 Insight is a jewel to discover. Finally, the increasingly popular Clarity Hybrid will amaze you with its driving experience that will exceed all your expectations. This hybrid car, which sits squarely between the Civic and the Accord in terms of design, is offered as a Touring and Plugin rechargeable version.
