Environmental Benefits

Although the main advantage of using Autogas is the cost savings, it also has substantial environmental
benefits and is widely recognised as a green fuel.

Combustion of Autogas produces less tailpipe emissions, resulting in a 15% reduction of carbon dioxide emissions compared to that of a petrol powered vehicle. Carbon dioxide is one of the main contributors to greenhouse gas emissions so increased usage of Autogas over other fuels will contribute substantially to the reduction of this greenhouse gas.

Use of Autogas also results in lower smog inducing emissions, fewer particulates and less air toxics.
Engine life may also be improved, as autogas combustion is clean and efficient thus lowering
maintenance costs and engine noise.

Internationally, in recognition of the environmental benefits, Government support and emphasis
is increasing for Autogas. In some countries, policies make gaseous fuels substantially cheaper
than petrol to promote consumption. Today almost 98% of taxis run on Autogas in Australia. Autogas
is now used as an alternative fuel in over 40 countries around the world and will continue to be the fuel
of choice for those who want economical motoring and genuinely care about the environment.

A lot has been said about cleaning up our environment, so why not find out more about converting your
existing vehicle to Autogas today!
