Air Induction System (A.I.S.) reduces exhaust emissions for a very clean, environmentally friendly engine. The A.I.S. system reduces hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide emissions by injecting fresh air into the exhaust port to completely burn any unburned gases in the exhaust. This new design engine easily meets the new EU-2 European emission standards.
How "clean" are the Majesty's exhaust emissions compared to, say, a hybrid vehicle? Or a motorcycle's? I ask as I'd like to corral some evidence on the "greenness" of this comparatively fuel-efficient (and beautiful) mode of transportation before I start pestering my local city council and mayor about promoting the use of maxi-scooters around town.
