Honda Insight Achieves "Cleanest Car 2011"

Honda Insight hybrid sedan earned the accolade as the "Cleanest Car 2011" in the event of Jaffa's Green Car Awards 2011 in England. Awards was created for the cooperation between the Jaffa's, websites and vcacarfueldata.org.uk milesperlitre.com to analyze levels of emissions from various car manufacturers the world.

Research conducted by three independent agencies in the field of environment is not merely focused on the levels of CO2 emissions, but also take into account the emission levels of NOx, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, PM10 particles, and even noise pollution though.

According to the research, PM10 particles are a major contributor to environmental pollution and health followed by hydrocarbons, and NOx. The best car is a car that has the lowest three levels, as well as sound pollution.



The result, ten types of cars had voted "Cleanest Cars" for 2011 this. Of the ten cars, eight car brands made it into the ranks of the top ten ten cars that entered the ranks of the top ten is a gasoline-fueled cars and hybrid.
