Honda (UK) has
sealed a major corporate deal to replace IKEA UK’s entire
company car fleet with Civic Hybrids. This follows a commitment
made by the home furnishings retailer to reduce its
environmental impact and in particular, reduce CO2
emissions.
In total, Honda will
supply 50 Civic Hybrids this year, with a further delivery in 2008.
John Kingston,
Environment Manager at Honda (UK) said: “Civic Hybrid is really taking
off in the corporate sector where businesses want to be seen to be
green."
“IKEA’s commitment to
replace its entire fleet with Civic Hybrids is a real-life endorsement
of the car and the excellent benefits it offers. In terms of cost, fuel
efficiency and low emission driving the Civic Hybrid really stacks up.”
he added.
The Honda Civic Hybrid
has a fuel consumption of 61.4mpg and CO2 emissions of
109g/km. It is also exempt from the London Congestion Charge and
benefits from reduced vehicle tax – hybrid owners will pay just £15 per
year.
