CNG (compressed natural gas) – Autorubic

The abbreviation CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) hides the term compressed natural gas. CNG is a hydrocarbon fuel, the main component of which is methane (80-98% by volume). It is mainly mined together with oil. According to the percentage of methane, natural gas is divided into two categories: high (87-99% methane) and low (80-87% methane). Higher quality CNG is used at petrol stations due to higher energy efficiency of combustion. Because natural gas reserves are estimated to be more than double those of oil, it is cheap, has a high octane rating, and significantly lower levels of exhaust gas pollutants (CO) compared to diesel or gasoline.₂ no_x 25% and CO content up to 50%), it can be described as environmentally friendly and promising fuel.

A smaller luggage compartment due to the location of the LNG tank, as well as a small network of filling stations, prevent more significant expansion. The consumption of natural gas vehicles is indicated in kg per 100 kilometers, while conventional vehicles such as Renault Scenic, Fiat Doblo or VW Passat, which have been converted at the factory for this drive, average gas consumption between 5 and 8 kg. ... for 100 km.
