Fueling
The refueling process for Autogas is comparable to that
of gasoline:
-
Autogas vehicles achieve approximately 85-90 percent
the miles per gallon of gasoline
-
Time required for refueling an Autogas vehicle is
comparable to that for gasoline
Many Autogas suppliers provide an on-site fueling
station for Autogas-powered fleets
Because propane requires a lower storage pressure than
CNG:
-
The cost of infrastructure implementation is lower
- Tank size within a vehicle can be much smaller
Performance
Vehicles that run on propane Autogas achieve comparable
performance to gasoline-powered vehicles:
-
Autogas vehicles receive a miles per gallon average
that is much closer to that of gasoline than other
alternative fuels (i.e. CNG, Electric)
-
Autogas substantially reduces vehicle carbon emissions
without sacrificing performance
-
Running a vehicle on Autogas reduces vehicle
maintenance, extending engine life
