Mayors take closer look at new eco-car

AT A time where saving the planet really matters, two mayors took a closer look at a brand new 'green' car.

Mayor of Bexhill Patrick Douart, along with Hastings mayor Maureen Charlesworth, were special guests at the launch of the Honda Insight at Bexhill Honda on Saturday.

The Honda Insight has a hybrid engine, with a built-in Eco Assist feature which helps the motorist drive more fuel-efficiently.

Greg Camburn of Bexhill Honda gave the mayors a run-down on the new car, paying particular attention to reduced fuel consumption and carbon emissions.

Many local authorities are now introducing hybrid vehicles into their fleets in order to cut down on their carbon footprints.
