Compressed Natural Gas Vehicles are Cleaner!



From gonatgas.com:

Natural gas is the cleanest burning alternative transportation fuel commercially available today. In fact, in 2011 the Honda Civic GX was named the "Cleanest Production Vehicle on Earth."


Replacing a typical older in-use vehicle with a new Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) provides the following reductions in exhaust emissions of:
  • Carbon monoxide (CO) by 70 - 90%
  • Non-methane organic gas (NMOG) by 50 - 75%
  • Nitrogen oxides (NOx) by 75 - 95%
  • Carbon dioxide (CO2) by 20 - 30%
    For instance, replacing one diesel-powered garbage truck with a natural gas-powered version of the same truck has the same benefit in reducing emissions as taking 325 cars off the road!

Research has shown that natural gas vehicles are cleaner for the environment.  Why don't you do your part and switch your vehicle over today?  Contact us at 479-646-7301 or email Ed at eflaherty@smithchevyworld.com
