Yesterday at the New York Auto Show the winner of the World Green Car of the Year was finally unveiled.
The competition honours vehicles that gather the most votes in their respective categories from an international jury of journalists. Top honours went to the Honda FCX Clarity vehicle – the first hydrogen fuel cell powered car to be released across North America.
The World Green Car of the Year award is given to a vehicle that has been produced in volumes of at least 10 and is in the hands of customers or test fleets. International experts from Europe, North American and Asia examined the list to narrow it down to five finalists.
The Honda FCX Clairy took the award ahead of the Toyota iQ and the Mitsubishi iMiEV which completed the top three vote-getters.
