Hardly a week goes by without another manufacturer adding a ‘green’-badged car to its range. From BlueMotion and BlueEFFICIENCY to ECOnetic and ecoFLEX, the new models keep appearing!

But just how efficient are these newcomers, and how much money will they enable you to save?

We’ve answered these questions and more in this special A-Z guide, which gives you all the information you need to make the right choice.

Our experts have run the rule over each of the major brands currently on sale in the UK , and picked out the star buy.

Plus, we tell you about all the next generation of Green cars and new innovations to look out for.
