The 10 cleanest and most polluting cars: the Toyota iQ and the Lamborghini Murcielago

The transport environmental association in England took the trouble to list the 10 most polluting cars in the country and the least polluting ones. It should be noted that although this list was compiled in England, it gives us a very approximate idea for the rest of Europe, given the diversity and similarity of models sold in Spain, for example.

To reach these conclusions, more than 5,000 cars across the country were examined, taking into account the following factors: power, emissions (the most important one), fuel efficiency and the noise level they produce.

The Toyota iQ turned out to be the least polluting car of all the models, with emission levels of around 95/105 g/km from its one-litre engine. The most polluting, meanwhile, is none other than the Lamborghini Murcielago, which pollutes five times more than the small iQ. Of course, we are talking about two cars from very distant planets, completely different from one another. The list has been put together as follows:

The best

  • Green car of the year: Toyota iQ
  • Small family car: Honda Insight 1.3
  • Large family car: BMW 320d Touring
  • Supermini: Toyota Yaris 1.4 D-4D
  • City car: Toyota iQ
  • Sports car: Vauxhall Tigra
  • MPV: Peugeot Bipper Tepee
  • Small MPV: Renault Modus 1.5dci
  • Off-roader: BMW X1 E84
  • Luxury car: BMW 740d

The worst

  • The most polluting of the year: Lamborghini Murcielago
  • Small family car: Volkswagen Golf 3.2 V6
  • Large family car: Vauxhall Insignia VXR V6 Turbo
  • Supermini: Renault Clio Sport 200
  • City car: Ford Ka 1.6 Sportka
  • Sports car: Lamborghini Murcielago
  • MPV: Mercedes R63
  • Small MPV: Vauxhall Zafira VXR 2.0i Turbo
  • Off-roader: Mercedes ML63
