Iranian Car Owners See the Wisdom of CNG Use

Compressed natural gas consumption up until last week reached 24.4 million cubic meters per day, the deputy director of National Iranian Oil Refining and Distribution Company said.
This shows a 30% increase compared to last year and is due to the lower price of CNG compared to gasoline, which has encouraged many car owners to convert their gasoline-powered vehicles to compressed natural gas hybrids.
“In the past four months 26,000 vehicles switched to CNG hybrids and we have plans to further increase the number,” ISNA quoted Hamid Qassemi as saying.
