CO2 Certificates Free with the HPI Check
Used car buyers can now reduce their carbon footprint with a helping hand from HPI, as it introduces its CO2 Certificate. Free with every HPI Check, the CO2 Certificate highlights the level of CO2 emissions a vehicle creates, using the industry standard CO2 emissions rating chart – similar to those already being displayed on new vehicles.
“Today, environmental issues are at the forefront of everyone’s mind, influencing the food we buy, the holidays we take and the cars we drive,” explains Nick Lindsay, Director for HPI. “Indeed, transport accounts for one third of UK emissions. For every 6,000 miles the average car travels, it produces its own weight in CO2 emissions and with 30 million cars on UK roads today, this represents a huge carbon burden. Delivered immediately via email once a HPI Check is conducted online, our CO2 Certificates are the ideal tool for those car buyers who would like to compare the emissions of one car with another, helping them reach an informed and greener buying decision.”
In a seven band A-G grading*, with category A being the lowest for emitting levels of CO2 and G being the highest, the certificates enable consumers to consider environmental data when determining a suitable vehicle for their needs. The sheets also offer practical advice to motorists on factors such as the impact driving behaviour has on fuel economy. Car buyers simply conduct a HPI Check online or by phone and will automatically receive the free environmental information sheet.
Nick Lindsay concludes, “Despite a growing number of green concept cars hitting motor shows, none have made great strides into the marketplace. Rather than waiting for a revolution in green motoring, motorists need to look at what they can do now to stem the tide of emissions. With CO2 emissions at the top of everyone’s agenda, HPI aims to help used car buyers reduce their carbon foot print and stay on the road to a greener future.”
