Environmentally-friendly car makers are to be acknowledged
in a new awards ceremony.
What Car?'s first ever Green Awards is to take place
at the British International Motor Show taking place in London
from 23 July - 3 August.
Some ten categories and an overall Green Car of the Year
will be the basis of nominations for prizes, in response
to increasing demand for information on environmentally-friendly
cars.
What Car? group editor Steve Fowler explained that
the focus of the awards will be on cars' green credentials.
However, he emphasised that other factors will be taken into
account.
He said - "With increasing environmental concerns among car
buyers - not to mention green taxes and spiralling fuel costs
- the time is right for a recognised Green Awards."
Renault was recently awarded the Environment Award in the
2008 Fleet World Honours for its range of low emissions models.
