Efficiency is pretty much the key focus of the car industry at the minute. Here at Paris the trend for greener cars is continuing at a rapid pace. And rapid is the operative word - just because we've got to go green doesn't mean we have to go slow.
There are two main themes running through the crop of eco cars here at the show: 'greener is meaner', but alongside that, 'greener is leaner'. To us it appears you can go fast and environmentally focused or the whole hog and be super frugal.

... lovely blue colour on that Merc ...
... the Exogen looks very aesthetic too ...
... low CO2 emmissions,along with good range and speed,
is what it`s all about,but must reflect in the purchase price,though !
