Honda iGX Engine Named Most Innovative
Engine
The December 2005 issue of Rental Equipment Register magazine
named the Honda iGX engine as a recipient of the prestigious
2005 Innovative Product Awards. The iGX engine captured first
place in the magazine’s engine and power sourcing category,
earning the highest number of votes from an RER magazine reader
panel.
The Honda iGX is a revolutionary intelligent, computer-controlled
general purpose engine that sets a new standard for ease of
use, value, fuel efficiency and quiet operation. Representing
a first in the power equipment industry, the iGX features an
integrated electronic control unit (ECU) that delivers complete
drive-by-wire remote control capability and controls key aspects
of engine operation.
Rental Equipment Register polled a randomly selected committee
of more than 10,000 readers to select winners in each of 12
categories from an initial group of 44 product entries. Within
each category of competition, approximately 900 readers were
then surveyed to determine the individual award recipients.
“The RER accreditation is an honor as well as testament
that Honda continually strives to provide the most technologically
intelligent products to our customers in the rental equipment
industry,” said Honda Engines assistant vice president,
Scott Conner. “The iGX engine is our latest effort toward
that goal.”
Honda received the award at the American Rental Association
Rental Show in Orlando, Florida, earlier this month.
