IAC Urges Automakers to Embrace Auto LPG for Emission Cuts

22 Jul 2024 CW Team

The Indian Auto LPG Coalition (IAC) is urging major automakers to shift towards using Auto LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) in vehicles, citing significant benefits in terms of emissions and cost-efficiency. The coalition's push aims to encourage the automotive industry to adopt this cleaner alternative to traditional fuels.

Auto LPG is recognized for its lower carbon emissions compared to petrol and diesel, making it a more environmentally friendly option. The IAC emphasises that switching to Auto LPG can lead to substantial reductions in harmful pollutants and greenhouse gases, contributing to improved air quality and environmental sustainability.

In addition to environmental benefits, Auto LPG offers cost advantages for both consumers and fleet operators. The IAC points out that Auto LPG is generally more affordable than petrol and diesel, leading to lower fuel costs for vehicle owners. This cost-effectiveness, combined with its environmental benefits, makes Auto LPG a compelling choice for reducing operational expenses in the automotive sector.

The IAC's initiative is part of a broader effort to promote alternative fuels and support the transition to greener transportation solutions. By highlighting the benefits of Auto LPG, the coalition aims to influence automotive manufacturers to integrate this technology into their vehicles, furthering the adoption of cleaner, more sustainable fuel options.

The push for Auto LPG adoption reflects a growing commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of the transportation sector and advancing environmental goals. As the industry responds to these calls, Auto LPG is poised to play a significant role in shaping the future of automotive fuel.
