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.

One great option is a CNG car. These vehicles are either dedicated to natural gas or are bi fuel and can also run off of regular gasoline. These vehicles are typically factory made or have a cng conversion kit installed. The big three automakers stopped making factory cng cars in 2004 when they came out with their flex fuel cars.

There is no need to fear however if you cannot find a factory made car. CNG conversion kits have become a big ticket item and actually really add alot to your car. A car with an aftermarket cng kit runs much better than a bi fuel cng factory made car.

CNG cars are superior to hybrid vehicles. The reason why is because with a hybrid car you still pay the high gas price and support foreign oil. Natural gas on the other hand is all made right here in the USA and is much much cheaper than gasoline. Natural gas burns about 90% cleaner than regular gasoline as well so its much better for the environment.

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.

There are many types of cng cars and conversion kits available in today’s market. Make sure you research and learn all you can about these cng kits before having them installed in your vehicle. We have lots of information on these different types of kits on our website.
