Surtis change over to CNG

The zooming mercury has contributed to a new gush in demand for CNG changeover kits in the city of Surat, India. The number of car owners switching over to CNG has more or less doubled in the last two months. The climb in the demand is comprehensible. With CNG evidencing a cheap alternative against petrol, Surtis are vanquishing the heat in the console of their cars.

The official data from Regional Transport Office  also confirms that the registration of CNG kits in private cars has nearly doubled in March and April when compared to previous months. In April alone, there was a registration of around 1,000 cars against the average 500 per month.  It is expected that the CNG kit registration will increase further by the end of May.

There are approximately 100 retrofitters marketing CNG kits fabricated by around 29 companies in the country and also in countries like Japan and Italy. The prices of CNG kit, which was between Rs.45,000 and Rs. 50,000, is now only between Rs. 30,000 and Rs. 40,000
