How E-CNG Works
The car starts on petrol and switches to CNG at the press of a button. Factory-fitted CNG is generally better for warranty and reliability than an aftermarket kit, because the manufacturer engineers the whole system.
Why CNG Power Is Lower
CNG mode is rated at 51.3 kW, compared with 61 kW on petrol. This is normal for CNG engines, so expect slightly less top-end power when running on gas.
Who Should Consider CNG?
- Buyers who drive long distances every day
- Owners who want lower fuel cost per kilometre
- Buyers who are happy with a little less power on CNG
