Best green cars in Sweden

According to the Swedish Association of Green Motorists and the juries they have relayed to, the best green car 2011 is: VW Passat TSI ecofuel (gas/petrol) followed by Volkswagen Touran TSI (gas) and Saab 9-3 Trifuel(gas/ethanol/petrol), Volvo C-30 electric (electricity) and Audi A4 (ethanol). These are according to the association, the cars with the best environment- and safety standards among new production of cars. This is said to be the world’s most ambitious examination of green cars.
