Eco Friendly Vauxhalls Scoop Hat Trick At Next Green Car Awards

PRLog (Press Release) - Nov. 7, 2011 - Vauxhall has been honoured recently with an impressive treble at the Next Green Car Awards 2011 with Ampera winning both the overall Gold Award and the Next Generation Award, whilst Corsa won the prestigious Supermini accolade.

Both Vauxhall models were selected from shortlists of 27 of the UK’s greenest new cars, all chosen for their environmental Next Green Car green car rating, level of innovation, value, drive experience and design in August 2011.   “The 2011 winners reflect the latest technologies being used by manufacturers to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions,” said Dr Ben Lane, Managing Editor of Next Green Car.  The Next Green Car judges also heaped praise on Vauxhall’s Corsa 1.3 CDTi ecoFLEX, “A value green car, the new Corsa is great to drive, has improved styling, and delivers fantastic fuel economy without cutting back on comfort or safety features.”

In addition, Vauxhall have recently launched the all new sporty *Astra ecoFLEX 1.7 CDTi (130PS) with Stop Start, which is now available for test drive at Northern Motors and features:
•   £0 Road Fund Licence
•   13% Benefit-in-Kind
•   Congestion Charge Free
•   Fuel Consumption 76.3mpg Combined
•   C02 emission 99g/km

Michael Beavis, Managing Director for Northern Motors said, “Vauxhall ecoFLEX vehicles are very efficient, they use less fuel more efficiently, which means they emit less CO2, helping decrease the impact on the environment.”  

That's not all; ecoFLEX is part of a much wider range of Vauxhall’s green automotive initiatives, having dramatically reduced manufacturing emissions.  Furthermore, all new vehicles are at least 85% recyclable and 95% recoverable as per GM's End of Life Vehicle Directive.
