The worldwide initiative is being spearheaded by a British-based independent testing group and backed by pollution and transport experts at Imperial College London and on the Continent.

Whilst some deisel cars surprising get the best A rating, deisel cars also feature in the worst ratin. Band H is more than 12 times the cycle limit for NOx.
