How green is my balli balli

Several Korean or Korea-connected automobiles have made the greenercars.org's list of the Greenest Vehicles of 2011, even though they include gasoline-powered engines.

They are the Hyundai Elantra, the Chevrolet Cruze (some of which are made in South Korea), and the Chevrolet Volt (whose batteries are made by a division of South Korea's LG Chem, but in the Detroit area). In certain categories, other Hyundai or Kia vehicles, like the Sonata, also get good ratings.

The "meanest" cars include the F-150, aka the "Hillbilly Hummer," which Ford may want to foist on the South Korean market via the KORUS FTA.
