Alternative Fuel and Hybrid Electric Vehicles


The Coalition has compiled summary tables with information on currently available and soon to be available AFVs and other "green" vehicles. Information on future vehicles is the best information available to date. The tables will be periodically updated and reposted to this page. A brief summary of currently available (2006) alt-fuel and hybrid vehicles is also provided on this page (prices are MSRPs virtually base models with no discounts, rebates, incentives or credits). Click the links to get the following summary tables:

• Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs)

• Flex-Fuel Vehicles (FFVs) and CNG Vehicle

• Diesel Vehicles, which are included here because of the potential to run them on biodiesel

• "Relatively Green" Conventional Vehicles - NOTE: this table still shows MY06 vehicles. An updated version for MY07 is being prepared and will be posted shortly.

Additional useful resources:

• Model year 2007 AFVs: This chart from the US Department of Energy lists all available alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles for model year 2007 on an easy-to-print page.
• Similar tables to those provided above for MY06 are available here: HEVs, FFVs and CNG vehicles, diesel vehicles and "relatively green" conventional vehicles.
• Model year 2006 AFVs: This chart from the US Department of Energy lists all available alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles for model year 2006 on an easy-to-print page.
• EPA's Green Vehicle Guide rates environmental performance of vehicles while they are in use. The website provides mileage information as well as air pollution and greenhouse gas scores on all vehicles. It also shows whether or not vehicles have earned EPA's SmartWay or SmartWay Elite rankings.
• American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE) produces a Green Book on vehicles that ranks cars and trucks on their environmental performance. There is a fee for the full book but the highlights can be viewed on the website for free.
• DOE and EPA publish the Fuel Economy website, which provides loads of information on fuel use in vehicles including, obviously, fuel economy ratings for all vehicles.
• Commercially available alternative fuel light-duty vehicles: The US Department of Energy (DOE) provides a searchable database for light-duty vehicle specifications and dealer information.
• Vehicle Buyer's Guide: Using DOE's Vehicle Buyer's Guide, you can learn about different technologies, view vehicle lists with pricing and technical specifications, locate nearby alternative fuel stations, contact a dealer or industry expert, learn about financial incentives, and more.
