Last year, Honda created a two-litre low-emission engine in an effort to boost
domestic sales and plans to develop this technology for its compact cars early
this year.
In December 2000 alone, Honda sold 13,000 Stream mini-van models, equipped
with the two-litre low emission i-VTEC engine capable of 20 percent greater
fuel-efficiency than Honda`s standard engines.
