Motorists trying to do their bit for the environment are being stung by expensive green policies, according to new research.

The findings of price comparison website moneysupermarket.com showed that although green is the colour of choice at the moment, those insurers boarding the ethical bandwagon to entice eco-friendly consumers are hitting them with premiums hiked by up to 44 per cent over standard policies.

Several insurers including CIS and More Than have launched green motor insurance, the features of which include offsetting carbon emissions or offering discounts for eco-friendly cars. The providers also argue their products are good value for money.
