TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF JUST GOT A LITTLE BIT EASIER

Row of SmartWay certified cars

Today, being green and making a better choice for the environment just got a little easier. Thanks to the Environmental Protection Agency's new SmartWay brand, consumers now have a credible source to go to for answers about their car's environmental performance. By buying a SmartWay certified car, sport utility vehicle or light truck, Americans will know that these vehicles are strong environmental performers relative to other vehicles. A SmartWay certified vehicle designation is determined by how a vehicle scores using EPA air pollution standards and other criteria. Specifically on EPA's Green Vehicle Guide, the scores are based on emission levels (the Air Pollution score) and fuel economy values (the Greenhouse Gas score). The SmartWay Leaf identifies vehicles that score at least 6 out of a possible 10 on each of the Air Pollution and Greenhouse Gas Scores and achieve a combined score of at least 13 out of 20.

We encourage you to share this with family, friends and colleagues, and to visit www.epa.gov/smartway/vehicles/smartway-certified.htm and click on the "Green Vehicle Guide" to compare fuel consumption and greenhouse gas scores, as well as help ensure that the car you are buying is as environmentally friendly as possible. Turning over a new leaf doesn't have to be hard, and today, it just got a little bit easier.
