Clean Green Cars environmental experts in the car industry; have produced a poll to find out who are the cleanest car makers, and therefore doing the east impact to the environment. The results found that Mini and Fiat were in fact the cleanest, despite not being in the top spots for the cleanest of the three substances produced in the exhaust. The other three that topped the poll were Suzuki, Hyundai and Toyota.
Land Rover ranked last in the polls, and Jeep, Chrysler and Subaru fell in behind them. This is because they all produce high emissions due to their diesel engines, and are therefore more harmful to the environment.
The overall scores were calculated by rating the manufacturers for the average emissions for pollutants found in the exhaust, and then weighing up the results by the volume of cars that the brand sold per year.
Richard Bremner, Editor of Clean Green Cars said "CO2 is hugely important, but it is not the whole story. A car that is good for CO2 can be bad for other pollutants and vice versa."
This study produces really interesting results, as car buyers are recently more aware of their green impact on the earth, and are choosing cars not only on good feedback from other road users, and good reviews, but also on the level of impact the vehicle will have on the environment.
If you are buying a car, make sure that you have valid road tax and Car Insurance. Cheap policies are readily available online, and will save you more money to spend on the car!
