Why Dual Fuel Vehicles Are King
Hybrids are definitely the most popular type of “green” car on the road, but are there other options? Indeed there are many different options for vehicles that run on alternative fuels, and the surprising thing is that these other options are much cleaner running than hybrids.
The first option is a cng vehicle, whether it be factory made or a vehicle with a cng conversion kit installed. Chrysler and GM stopped making factory cng vehicle in 2004. They did this because they found a loop hole in the alternative fuel law by creating E85 Flex Fuel cars.
If you can’t find a factory made cng bi fuel car the next option is to add on a cng conversion kit to your vehicle. These kits pay for themselves within a couple of years because of how much money you will save from running your vehicle on natural gas instead of regular petrol. These kits also come with second on board computers that can really maximize mpg, engine power, and engine life.
CNG cars are really better for the environment than hybrid vehicles. Natural gas burns 90% cleaner than gasoline. This clean burning means your engine will last a long long time before giving out. Natural gas is also all made in the USA. By buying natural gas you are no longer relying on the big foreign oil companies to power America’s cars.
Dual Fuel and Bi Fuel simply mean that a car can run off of two separate fuels. This is very advantageous because if you are ever in an area that does not offer natural gas you can still fill up your car with regular gasoline so you can still drive it. Some vehicles are considered to be tri fuel as they can run on cng, gasoline, and flex fuel E85.
Because of the large number of cng conversion kits on the market, be careful and make sure you have done some research before installing a kit. We have several articles and pages of information on our website.
