100 maximum score
59 SmartForTwo EV
58 Spark EV
57 Prius City

55 Leaf EV. Prius, Civic, and other compact hybrids.
54 Mirage, Fiesta (normal nonhybrids) (3 cylinders)(and cleanest manual shift cars)
54 Civic Natural Gas
One more honorable mention
The same CREEE Green cradle to grave score.

Gen1 Insight
Last score in 2006 (when they stopped making them) was:
MT 54
CVT 57
