LPG is the latest trend in generating energy for vehicles. More and more cars have been modified to accommodate the use of LPG. Why does everyone want to use LPG instead of petrol? Because, people can save more money when they use LPG. LPG is derived from refining petroleum. LPG is also created by combining propane and butane.

For example, propane gas and butane gas are refined from petroleum before combining together to create LPG. To create LPG, the proportion of the gases must be in a particular balance which varies depending on the weather conditions. For example, when it is cold, LPG will require more propane gas to heat your home but when it is warmer, it will need more butane gas. In normal conditions, both gases are at equal proportions.

The main benefit of using LPG as fuel for vehicles is that you can save money. The reason why LPG is cheaper is because it is being refined from existing petroleum (or combined propane gas and butane gas from other sources). LPG is cheaper than any other fuel such as petrol and diesel, so it provides a more economical fuel for those who can’t afford more expensive fuel sources.

However, apart from saving money, LPG is a very clean burning fuel. It means there will be less air pollution because there is less carbon dioxide, less nitrogen oxide and sulphur. When there is less gas emission from combustion, there is less pollution. There are more and more vehicles being converted to LPG, as most cars being produced are not compatible with LPG. In order to get these cars to run on LPG, some modifications are needed.

However, it is a hassle when you have to change your car from petrol-fuelled to LPG-fuelled. Why not have both benefits in one car? To realise this idea, some car companies are creating dual-fuel systems that allow car owners to choose whether to use standard fuel, such as petrol, or LPG. By having this duel system, the vehicles can use either one to generate energy. In times where you cannot get LPG, you can use petrol to fuel your vehicle. This function is extremely convenient and can work with your budget as you go along. When you can afford it you are able to use LPG for your vehicle and when money is tight, you can switch to standard fuel.

However, these cars are more expensive and you must be willing to commit your money as a form of investment for a better fuel and cleaner environment. These cars are going to cost more than you budgeted, so consider it as an investment for a better future and a cleaner environment.

Of course, it is advisable to convert your existing vehicle to an LPG-fuelled vehicle if you want to save more money. There are many dealers coming up with great offers to help you change your car into a LPG-fuelled vehicle with a very low investment rate. Besides, converting to using LPG is more beneficial to you - apart from saving money it is cleaner and more environmentally friendly.
