New York is one of several east coast states that has adopted California’s stricter emissions laws and the Civic GX is the only dedicated natural gas-powered passenger car available in the United States.


The car retails at $US24,590. Currently natural gas is approximately 30% less expensive than petrol when purchased at a refuelling station, and approximately 50% cheaper when supplied by a ‘Phill’, a natural gas home refuelling appliance the automaker sells.


Buyers are eligible for a Federal tax credit of $US4,000 for the gas-powered car and an additional $1,000 in tax credits for the purchase and installation of ‘Phill’.


Equipped with a standard five-speed automatic transmission, the 1.8-litre, 4-cylinder engine delivers 113 horsepower and 109 ft-lbs of torque, both an increase of more than 10% compared with the previous generation.


The Civic GX is assembled in East Liberty, Ohio.
