Ford improves its green credentials

Auto buyers who would not consider using car insurance comparison sites and getting a car insurance quote for a highly polluting model may be impressed by the recent achievements of Ford. Figures from Clean Green Cars have shown that the manufacturer is leading the race when it comes to cutting its impact on the environment.

Jay Nagley, publisher of the website, commented “New car carbon dioxide emissions are falling at an unprecedented rate and Ford is more than playing its part”.

The online resource’s study took into account the sales of the latest models recorded so far this year. Ford suggested its success in the area is down to the introduction of vehicles such as Fiesta ECOnetic- an auto that is capable of 76.3 mpg and boasts carbon dioxide emissions of 98g/km.

Drivers may find opting for an environmental friendly model will mean that they qualify for cheap car insurance, as many green autos are smaller and are therefore eligible for relatively inexpensive cover.
