Default Five Finalists Compete for 2008 Green Car of the Year Award at the LA Auto Show

Quote:
The winner of the 2008 Green Car of the Year(R) award has been narrowed to five nominees, according to an announcement by Green Car Journal, the leading automotive environmental magazine. The winner will be announced on Nov. 15 during Press Days at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
To view the Multimedia News Release, go to: http://www.prnewswire.com/mnr/laautoshow/30319/
"There has been significant movement in the auto industry toward making mainstream models 'greener' in recent years, with notable milestones in fuel efficiency and low emissions," says Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal. "This is especially evident with hybrids, where gasoline-electric hybrid technology is being applied to popular models in the most important vehicle classes where consumers are shopping."

I guess the cars had to be new hybrid releases in 07 or 08 to qualify since there are no Toyota or Honda models.

Out of those five, the Altima would be the winner in my book, but I am a little biased.
