Top 10 Fuel Efficient Green Cars

The color of the decade is most definitely green, not on for saving the environment but also saving you money, and if you are looking to buy a car in this age of $4.00+ gas prices you may be considering a “green” car. Most of us think of a green car as a hybrid car, but you can get cars with excellent fuel efficiency that are still running on fossil fuels, in other words, gasoline powered cars. Here are the top green cars, based on fuel efficiency and style.

I guess concept cars and pure electric cars were left off this list? The Smart for Two car really caught my attention. I have seen them around town but wasn’t sure what they were. Thanks for the green list.
Honda Civic GX (Compressed Natural Gas)?
Smart for two is the oddest car on this list, but there is something attractive about it. Here is blog post about it: http://www.mrpappagiorgio.com/smart-fortwo-whats-so-smart/
Why were the Escape Hybrid and Mariner Hybrid both on the list? They are the same vehicle, except the Mariner has an upgraded interior.
these are rubbish – what about the fiat panda? 70mpg! my ford focus does better than any of these and its not even meant to be that economical!
don’t you people have diesel?
Ehm the VW Lupo 3l and the Audi a2 3l runs 100km on 3liters, or 78 mpg..
Nice collection of cars… however this year has seen a lot more greener cars come to the market, however, just not to the US. A trip to the UK will show that most people there actually drive tiny hatchbacks, much smaller than the mini cooper featured here.
Here is a list green vehicles, which have not actually gotten the market potential of the ones featured here, however they are still worthy of a look.
