Despite having the word “gas” in its name, AutoGas produces far fewer harmful emissions than the gases we put in most vehicles today.
- Its exhaust creates 60% to 70% less smog-producing hydrocarbons than petrol. (Southwest Research Institute)
- Compared to petrol, AutoGas yields 12% less carbon dioxide and as much as 60% less carbon monoxide. When compared to traditional fuels and even compressed natural gas (CNG), propane AutoGas is the clear winner by reducing harmful nitrogen oxide from vehicle emissions by 20% or more. (World Liquid Propane Gas Association, January 2003; California Energy Commission, January 2003)
- AutoGas cuts emissions of toxins and carcinogens like benzene and toluene by up to 96% compared to petrol. (Southwest Research Institute)
- Its octane rating is 104, while premium grade gasoline’s is only 91 to 92. This higher rating allows for a higher compression ratio in the engine and greater engine efficiency, leading to significant reductions in exhaust emissions like carbon monoxide.
Because AutoGas burns so cleanly, your vehicles will require less frequent oil changes – and will, in fact, require less maintenance generally while it increases the life of the engine.
Same power, better performance.
Drivers who use AutoGas report that, when compared to Petrol, it provides equivalent power in even the heaviest applications…while providing superior performance.
Better still, AutoGas provides the longest driving range of any alternative fuel on the market today.
