Toyota Yaris named Green Car of the Year 2008

The small car beat 1,300 other models to take the title and also claimed the supermini category.

Runner up was the Honda Civic Hybrid, followed by the Toyota Prius, Renault Modus and Citroen C1. The Dodge SRT-10 sports car was named as the least environmentally car overall, just ahead of the Lamborghini Murcielago and the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorani and 612 Scaglietti models. “The discrepancy between the greenest and the least green cars in Britain today is striking,” said Andrew Davis, director of the ETA. “But the market is changing and a combination of consumer pressure alongside government leadership will result in an increasing choice of environmentally-sound cars."
