Burning less fuel means depositing less harmful emissions into the environment while saving you money. Honda leads the field with our fuel efficiency technology.

Cars sold in Australia receive an ADR (Australian Design Rules) combined fuel efficiency figure. However, Honda also carries out local tests on our vehicle range to establish fuel consumption figures for New Zealand conditions, including an Optimal NZ Drive Test.

During the Optimal NZ Drive Test, we aim to produce results that relate to typical driving conditions. All the cars are driven on the same route from Auckland to Taupo and back, including travelling through Hamilton city on the outward leg. Where required the cars are driven with the fan on, rather than air conditioning. We also specify that the cars be driven at the appropriate speed limit wherever safe and practicable, including regular overtaking of slower vehicles.

Fuel efficiency figures including ADR, Optimal NZ Drive Test and AA ENERGYWISE™ Rally results for 2010 and 2008.
