Report: EU commissioners favour fancy German cars
By EUobserver
Online publication Public Service Europe says EU commissioners favour petrol-guzzling German cars instead of green alternatives. Twelve commissioners use the €80,000 and €150,000 Mercedes S-class, three use 7-series BMWs and 10 use Audi A8s. Out of the 29 vehicles in the commission car pool, just one is a hybrid model.
