Welcome to Ford Motor Company Ltd 0845 111888 www.ford.co.uk As the number of motor vehicles around the world increases, so do environmental concerns. However, we have always aimed to be a model for the industry in this area. So we’re working to reduce the environmental impact of our products, while providing the utility, performance and affordability customers demand. We want it to be easy for people to say, 'I'm an environmentalist and a car enthusiast.' Alternative Fuel Vehicles (AFVs) offer fewer, less damaging emissions than petrol and diesel. Ford has been at the forefront of AFV research and technology for the past 40 years, and we market vehicles which run on a wider range of alternative fuels than any other manufacturer’s. These include Compressed Natural Gas, Liquefied Petroleum Gas, methanol, ethanol and electricity.

Later, we developed the Variable
Valve Timing and Lift Electric Control System (VTEC) and the i-VTEC series
engines, whose innovative technologies achieved both a high level of performance
and reduced emissions for production vehicles. And in 1998, we furthered our
efforts to preserve the global environment with the release of hybrid vehicles
with the highest fuel economy in the world. These advanced technologies are
being expanded to all our products as we switch from two-stroke to four-stroke
engines in mass market motorcycle production, apply fuel injection systems to
compact cars, and employ four-stroke engines in multipurpose engine products.
These changes to our product line are proceeding substantially ahead of the
scheduled revisions to EPA exhaust emission regulations. We believe these
efforts will allow Honda to meet the demand of its 15 million customers around
the world for superior motorcycle, vehicle, and multipurpose engine products.
