*Due to a mistaken vehicle emissions specification,
the Greenest List posted February 15th inadvertently omitted the Mazda
2. We regret the error.
[CNG] denotes compressed natural
gas fuel.
[P] denotes premium gasoline.
"auto CVT" denotes continuously variable automatic
transmission.
a A listing with two
emission standards (e.g., Tier 2 bin 2/ PZEV)
denotes a single vehicle carrying both a Federal
and a California emission certification. Green
Scores for such listings reflect the cleaner
of the two certifications.
b Compressed natural
gas (CNG) vehicle fuel economy given in gasoline-equivalent
miles per gallon.
c Fuel economy for electric vehicles is provided in miles per kilowatt-hour.
d The Smart Fortwo Electric Drive scores 60,
but is not eligible for the Greenest list due to low sales volume.
Only 250 units of the 2011 Smart Fortwo EV will be available on a trial
basis in the U.S.
