Volkswagen Touareg: the dirtiest car on the road?

According to Forbes, the worst polluting cars on our roads today are, starting with the dirtiest of all:

  1. Volkswagen Touareg
  2. Saab 9-7X
  3. Mercedes-Benz GL320 CDI 4Matic
  4. Jeep Commander
  5. Chevrolet Trailblazer
  6. Ford F150
  7. Mercedes-Benz R320 CDI 4Matic
  8. Jeep Grand Cherokee
  9. Dodge Ram 1500
  10. Chrysler Aspen
  11. Dodge Dakota
  12. Dodge Durango

Notice that half of the cars are built by Chrysler. Forbes' methods may be questionable, but the list is at least a starting point. In the next few days, I'll try to follow this story up with the cleanest cars on the road and then cars that are due out that we should be watching for.
