subject: Greenest New Car Deals [print this page] Green or eco cars have seen a huge rise in popularity in the last few years and the trend is gathering momentum. Many people are interested in getting an ecologically friendly car, but think that the cost may be to high, but there are some surprisingly good new car deals for green cars as manufacturers are trying to push sales and increase their popularity. There are a number of emerging technologies that are advancing the eco car industry, and as well as being better for the environment, the long-term economic benefits can be substantial.
The main two forms of eco cars are electric cars and hybrid cars, each of which have their benefits, and each one is designed for a different type of usage. There have been advancements in electric cars over the last couple of years with Renault and Vauxhall being among the leading manufacturers. It is possible to purchase a brand new Renault Fluence for around 17,000, which is a really good price for such a car. Electric cars are ideally suited to those who travel distances of less than 100 miles, and make for great city cars. Some of the new car deals available on the latest models bring them into an affordable price range for people looking for a new car, and the latest models are just as stylish and spacious as their petrol and diesel counterparts.
Hybrid cars are a great option for those looking for the same high performance as petrol cars and longer journey lengths, and there are some new car deals available on some of the top models. The Peugeot 3008 Hybrid4 is a new top of the range hybrid car that is the first 4x4 of its kind, comfortably seating five people and being rated highly for its performance. It is possible to purchase one for around 31,000, which may seem expensive, but in comparison to its non-hybrid counterpart, the price is extremely competitive. Over just a few years, the amount of money saved on fuel costs will be huge, and this is particularly important in the present economic climate as fuel costs continue to rise.
It is not just electric and hybrid cars that are trying to reduce emissions and fuel consumption, and many mainstream cars are now being designed with this in mind. The new Fiat Panda is one of those and has been praised for its incredibly low emissions and fuel usage.
