Honda Civic Hybrid is the Greenest Car in Britain

The Environmental Transport Association (ETA) announced the Honda Civic Hybrid as the Greenest Car in Britain for the second year in a row. Their top 10 list includes:

1. Honda - Civic Hybrid

Notice they are some of the smallest cars available. The ETA ranks 'green' by looking at it in terms of power (engine capacity), CO2 emissions, fuel consumption, noise and finally safety (impact on pedestrians). So, smaller is better in their book.

The top 10 worst cars are:

1. Lamborghini - Diablo Roadster
2. Lamborghini - Murcielago Roadster
3. Ferrari - Supermerica
4. Ferrari - Scagliatti
5. Bentley - Azure
6. Bentley - Arnage RL

9. Bentley - Continental Flying Spur
10. Ferrari - Spider

The ETA also announced a new category for Innovation. Saab won with its Bio Power Flex-Fuel Technology. They developed the first production car that runs on E85 bio fuel.
