A unique website solely dedicated to greener motoring has been launched.
Clean Green Cars' (www.cleangreencars.co.uk ) aim is simple: to provide clear, easily understood advice about choosing and using cars in a more environmentally considerate way.
Publisher Jay Nagley said "There is a real need for sensible, unbiased environmental advice for motorists. 'Green motoring' is almost a daily topic within the media and for consumers the topic can be intimidating, confusing and complicated.
Our new site will state the facts and guide the consumer realistically to a greener way of motoring that is both appropriate and affordable".
A major goal of the site will be identifying the greenest cars on sale today - not just the greenest cars of all, but also the greenest by vehicle type. Clean Green Cars recognises that a small diesel hatchback or a hybrid will not suit everyone, and makes recommendations across all vehicle categories to enable buyers to identify the greenest off-roader, people carrier or small sports car.
Clean Green Cars will also provide:
* Daily news on green developments in cars, fuels, green technologies and government initiatives.
* Practical news on car use, such as models exempt from London's congestion charge, the availability of bio-fuels, restrictions on the use of high CO2 models and more.
* Reviews of new cars from a green perspective.
* Green feature articles, ranging from the background of bio-fuels to the latest on fuel cell technology, incentives to go green, news of the latest green experimental cars and more.
* Jargon-buster. Just what is a fuel cell? What are bio-fuels, and how do they help? How does a hybrid work? Why are engines being 'down-sized'?
* Manufacturer Watch. What are the car makers doing to reduce the environmental impact not only of their cars, but their methods of producing them?
CLEAN GREEN CARS AND THE GOODWOOD FESTIVAL OF SPEED
Clean Green Cars is proud to be associated with the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2007 and in particular the event's new Technology Pavilion. The exceptionally well attended Goodwood Festival of Speed is to be held in the grounds of Goodwood House, Chichester on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th June 2007.
Clean Green Cars editor Richard Bremner said "We are absolutely delighted to help develop this pioneering exhibition which promises to bring together some of the most advanced concept cars and automotive technologies in the world to the Goodwood stage.
This exhibition will see many of the vehicles making their debut appearance in the UK".
The pavilion will showcase concepts and design studies representing all the technologies that can reduce vehicle CO2 emissions, from fuel cells to hybrids, from bio-fuelled cars to the hydrogen propelled.
