When I say price, what I am really referring to is value. Finding the lowest price on an eco-friendly car would be easy otherwise. All you would have to do is look over a list of green cars and choose the one that will take the least hit on your pocketbook. Unfortunately it is not quite that simple these days. Just because something is inexpensive does not mean that it will give you good value for your money. Value is the combination of a vehicle's price, fuel consumption, safety, reliability, features, and warranty. What you should be looking for is the most inexpensive vehicle you can afford that will offer as many of the above items of value that you covet the most. Assuming you are a green eco-consumer you will probably be looking at these seven points of interest in particular; price, fuel economy, mechanical safety, reliability, low emissions, interior toxin safety, and warranty.
