Main advantages of CNG

The conversion of vehicles to natural gas, mainly in taxi fleets in large centers, helped to popularize CNG. It is a fossil fuel, like oil, but it has some differences:
  • It offers an advantage in the cost per kilometer driven.
  • As it is dry, it does not cause carbon residues in the internal parts of the engine, increasing its useful life and oil change interval.
  • It has low nitrogen, carbon dioxide and sulfur emissions, improving the air in urban centers.
Cars converted to CNG become bi-fuel, allowing the driver to choose the best option when fueling.

Answer your questions about compressed natural gas

What is compressed natural gas?
Compressed natural gas, also known as CNG, is a fossil fuel used as a more sustainable alternative to other oil byproducts. CNG generates less emissions because it is a mixture of light compounds, made up of carbon and hydrogen.
What are the advantages of compressed natural gas?
Compressed natural gas offers several advantages to drivers: its use is less polluting to the environment, it can reduce the cost per kilometer driven and, as it does not generate carbon residues, it also helps to increase the useful life of the engine.
Can compressed natural gas replace gasoline or ethanol?
Yes. Compressed natural gas can replace gasoline or ethanol, as long as the car goes through the conversion process to CNG, which includes the installation of the “gas kit” in specialized workshops.
