UK: Toyota remains greenest vehicle manufacturer
Toyota has retained its position as greenest vehicle manufacturer according to a study conducted by Business Car magazine.
For the second year running, the top 20 fleet manufacturers were rated and ranked based on survey results and other research by [I]Clean Green Cars[/I] (www.cleangreencars.co.uk) on the various attributes and achievements of each brand. Scores were weighted to allow for sales volume to give a true comparison of large and small brands. Toyota was top-rated with a score of 86 per cent.
A recent Auto Trader survey also put Toyota top of the environmental table in a survey of almost 2,000 UK motorists.
Toyota has achieved its leading green status thanks to industry leading hybrid applications - most famously the Prius - and also environmentally considerate manufacturing and recycling.
The company is also on target to achieve its goal of whole-fleet CO2 emissions of 140 g/km this year. The introduction of Toyota Optimal Drive, a range of powertrain design and engineering features that increase output, while significantly improving emissions performance and fuel efficiency, gives almost every Toyota model a green edge over its rivals.
