smart fortwo mhd is Australia's Greenest Car

The Australian Federal Government's Green Vehicle Guide, has rated the smart fortwo cabrio mhd (micro hybrid drive) as having the lowest greenhouse and air pollution emissions in Australia, earning a total score of 17 out of a possible 20 points for both its air pollution and greenhouse ratings.

This grants the smart fortwo cabrio mhd a full five stars and top position in the Green Vehicle Guide rankings.

Released in Australia last December, the 52 kW smart fortwo micro hybrid drive boasts a combined cycle fuel consumption rate of only 4.4-litres per 100km (according to ADR 81/02), and an extra-urban consumption rate of only 3.9l/100km. The carbon dioxide (CO2) output of the two-seater is only 105 grams per km driven.

The innovative smart mhd uses simple but very effective start-stop technology when driven in traffic, switching the engine off when stationary and seamlessly restarting when the driver goes to move again.
