Honda Environment in St. Charles, IL, Near Glendale Heights
At McGrath Honda of St. Charles, IL – near Glendale Heights, West Chicago, Geneva, and Villa Park – we’re proud to be part of the Honda environmental vision that keeps you moving while also protecting our planet. We believe that "going green" shouldn’t mean compromising on the "going" part. While we love a roaring engine as much as the next Illinoisan, we’re even bigger fans of having a planet to drive on.
Honda has always been the overachiever of the automotive world, and their environmental goals are no exception. We’re talking about a vision so clean you could practically eat off the manifold – from hitting 100% electric sales by 2040 to planting an actual forest (The Power of Dreams Forest, because "The Woods of Wishful Thinking" didn't have the same ring to it). Whether it’s the CR-V Hybrid tackling a Fox River winter or the all-electric Prologue leading the charge, we’re proving that saving the world looks pretty great in your driveway.
When you buy a vehicle from McGrath Honda of St. Charles, you can feel good that you’re supporting a company that takes the environment seriously so that we can all enjoy the Earth for centuries to come.

Advancing Electrification
As part of our mission to engineer a sustainable future, Honda is targeting sales of 100% zero emission electrified vehicles in North America by 2040. On the path to 2040, we will launch two all-new full electric SUVs in 2024, starting with the Honda Prologue.
Securing a Carbon-Free Future through Virtual Power
Tackling CO2 emissions is the biggest challenge that our society faces today. That's why we've entered into long-term virtual power purchase agreements for renewable wind and solar power that will cover more than 60% of the electricity that Honda uses in North America. Learn how we'll achieve a carbon-free future with our new wind and solar power investments.
Sustainable Manufacturing
The biggest environmental impact from vehicles, other than driving them, is from building them. That’s why Honda continues to find ways to make all aspects of our operations more sustainable.
Environmental Leadership Award Program
Over the past decade, hundreds of authorized Honda and Acura dealers and distributors across the U.S. have joined the Honda Environmental Leadership Award “Green Dealer” Program as they seek to measurably reduce their environmental footprint. We realized that other businesses could benefit from our program too, so we’re openly sharing it with the world to measurably reduce our impact together.
