Product Description
- The Muskie Act is a very strict law enacted in the United States to regulate exhaust gas emissions (environmental protection).
- Complying with this law is expected to require advanced technology and high development costs, leaving American automakers, including the Big Three, scrambling to decide what to do.
- In 1972, Honda released the first-generation Civic, which was equipped with a low-emission engine that incorporated a technology named CVCC (Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion), and thus met the law. It is known for overturning the notion of Japanese cars in America at the time, which was that cheap meant bad quality.
- Since then, the Civic has become synonymous with Honda cars in America and has been loved by people of all ages and genders to this day.
- The motif of Hot Wheels is the fourth generation model that appeared in 1987, known as the EF type and nicknamed `Grand Civic` in Japan.
- It was very well received, with its wide and low proportions and its light, powerful engine.
- The Civic is also popular with American 'tuner' fans who further improve the engine, lower the ride height, and customize the appearance, and the Hot Wheels EF type is finished in a style that reflects these trends.
