&lt;p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;"&gt;&amp;quot;Buying an alternative fuel vehicle has become the equivalent to buying a smartphone,&amp;quot; said Karl Brauer, editor-in-chief of Total Car Score. &amp;quot;In a very short period of time the question for many consumers has shifted from &amp;#39;Should I buy a smartphone?&amp;#39; to &amp;#39;Which smartphone should I buy?&amp;#39; The same thing is happening with alternative drivetrain vehicles. That is why we compiled this list: to give car buyers who know they want an alternative fuel vehicle a better idea of the top offering in each category.&amp;quot; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;"&gt;Brauer added that another factor in putting the list together is that today nearly every carmaker has entered into the alternative fuel race with at least one model. &amp;quot;In the very near future,&amp;quot; Brauer said, &amp;quot;offering a range of drivetrains, with at least one alternative fuel option, is going to be the norm, not the exception.&amp;quot; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:12pt;"&gt;The ranking of alternative fuel vehicles was compiled using Total Car Score&amp;#39;s unique vehicle rating system. The Total Car Score comes from a comprehensive system of evaluating every vehicle on the market using an industry-wide standard. The &amp;quot;Total Car Score&amp;quot; (TCS) awarded to a vehicle is a comprehensive number that aggregates car ratings from the top industry authorities and incorporates fuel efficiency and safety components.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;padding:0px;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://community.element14.com/resized-image/__size/661x250/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-00-11/contentimage_5F00_16591.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="image" src="https://community-storage.element14.com/communityserver-components-secureimagefileviewer/communityserver/wikis/components/files/00/00/00/00/11/contentimage_16591.png-661x250.png?sv=2016-05-31&amp;amp;sr=b&amp;amp;sig=y74mTzqd5eGhkWyAdRrCoa16GBCsXm6%2BKnIhBJtFLUk%3D&amp;amp;se=2026-09-15T23%3A59%3A59Z&amp;amp;sp=r&amp;amp;_=UY5C/gPoXGEo7//EW3ApcQ==" style="max-height: 250px;max-width: 661px;" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin:0;"&gt;Via &lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/total-car-score-ranks-the-top-2012-alternative-fuel-vehicles-148235685.html" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank"&gt;PRNewsWire&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
