Honeywell Transportation Systems has been named a winner of the 2011 Automotive News PACE Environmental Award for its VNT DualBoost Turbo.

Honeywell received the award at the recent Automotive News Green Car Conference in Novi, Michigan, and was one of four recipients of this honor recognizing “contributions to the automotive industry which also have a positive effect on the health of the environment.” Honeywell and its VNT DualBoost Turbo were eligible for the award having been previously honored in April by Automotive News for excellence in automotive innovation and execution.

The VNT DualBoost Turbo brought to market five distinct innovations to provide Ford Motor Company’s Power Stroke engine with improved engine performance, fuel economy, and responsiveness – all while helping Ford to meet new standards mandating an 80 percent reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions.
