Hi Sledge:

___What I wanted to know was what the 136th ranked Greenest car was ;) Nice find once again too!

___From the “About the Green Rating (http://autos.yahoo.com/green_center-article_144/;_ylt=Aqh9VvM56efY1xyS4dgWPQt1JNIF)”, the HCH-II is lighter by ~ 100 #’s and it is a Tier II/Bin2 SMOG related emissions platform vs. the Prius II’s Tier II/Bin3 rating. Its FE/GHG emissions held it back a touch vs. the Prius II but not enough to keep it off the top of their list.

___Still waiting for that Tier II/Bin2 rated non-hybrid Civic with the HCH-II’s 1.3 in it though ;)

___Good Luck

___Wayne
