What Are The Top Green Cars in America?

2012 Ford Focus Electric
Going green is big in America right now.  One of the most visible ways of demonstrating that you are green is your car.  Manufacturers are pushing the greenness of their cars more than ever before.  We did a little look into the cars that are considered the greenest in America.  There are a number of different sites claiming to know which cars are the greenest.  They almost all come up with the following list of 5 cars:

Toyota Prius - This car has been chosen the greenest car in America 7 years in a row by Consumer Reports.  It gets over 50 mph.

 Ford Fusion Hybrid - This is the most expensive Fusion of all and USA Today says it is the best hybrid built in America.

Honda Insight - The Honda Insight is not as fuel efficient as the Prius but is less expensive.

Honda Civic Hybrid - This car looks like the regular Civic and gets about 42 mph. It is routinely rated as the safest car on the road.

Ford Focus Electric - The Ford focus Electric is a 2012 car and it is in limited production but it takes no gas and that is pretty green.
