Honda Least-Polluting Automaker in U.S.
Survey: Honda Least-Polluting Automaker in U.S.
By Tom Doggett
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Honda produces the least-polluting vehicle fleet in the U.S. market, while DaimlerChrysler is at the bottom of the list of automakers selling environmentally friendly cars, according to a survey from the Union of Concerned Scientists.
The UCS survey, released on Wednesday, analyzed the environmental performance of the six largest automakers in the U.S. market. Together, they sell nine of every 10 vehicles in the United States.
Honda was followed by Toyota, Nissan, Ford, General Motors and DaimlerChrysler.
Ford was the only vehicle manufacturer to move up in the UCS survey. The group said Ford's environmental progress was due to company Chairman William Clay Ford Jr.
"Ford deserves credit for going beyond federal requirements to clean up smog-forming emissions from its trucks," said Jason Mark, who oversaw the UCS survey. "Bill Ford has touted his green thumb, but until now only his speeches have merited a thumbs up," he said.
