Honda Insight hybrid sedan earned the accolade as the 2011 Cleanest Car in the event of Jaffa's Green Car Awards 2011 in England. These awards are created through the cooperation of Jaffa's, site milesperlitre.com and vcacarfueldata.org.uk to analyze the levels of emissions from various car manufacturers the world.
Research conducted three independent institutions in the field of environment is not only focused on the levels of CO2 emissions, but also take into account the emission levels of NOx, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, PM10 particles, and even though the sound pollution.
According to the research, PM10 particles are a major contributor to environmental pollution and health followed by hydrocarbons, and NOx. The best car is a car that has the lowest three levels, as well as sound pollution.
As a result, ten types of cars successfully elected as the "Cleanest Cars" for 2011 this. Of the ten cars, eight car brands made it into the ranks of the top ten of ten cars that entered the ranks of the top ten is a gasoline-fueled cars and hybrid. Five cars were gasoline-fueled cars while the other five are hybrid cars.
The result of research conducted by the three institutions were announced in London, England in late March 2011 through the arena of Jaffa's Green Car Awards 2011, whereby the Honda Insight get the title as the "Cleanest Cars" among nine species of other cars.
Honda Insight can achieve the perfect figure of 100% of the existing research results.
Insight is a hybrid sedan that carries the Honda i-VTEC engine power 1.3 liter combined with battery power of the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA).
From the results of research, the Honda Insight petrol consumption per 100 kilometers is 4.6 liters. CO2 emission levels even below 100 mg per km is 60 mg per km. For emission standards, the Honda Insight meets Euro 5 emissions standard that is the new standard rate of motor vehicle exhaust emissions that came into effect in 2010 ago in Europe.
The second generation Honda Insight was released in 2009. Since its release, its market share is spread across North America (Canada and United States), Europe, South Africa, and Asia-Oceania (Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, and Singapore).
Jaffa's is short for Jaffa's Juicy Bits, an independent institute that studies about technology "green", especially in this case the performance of modern cars environmentally friendly, which refers to mathematical analysis.
