write a Review about the Volvo V70
CNG
Volvo offers the choice of two Bi-Fuel CNG
cars in the UK – its V70 estate and S60 saloon. Natural Gas (or
CNG - Compressed Natural Gas) - is a fossil fuel sourced from reserves
deep under the Earth's surface. It has lower CO2 emissions compared to
petrol/diesel.
The alternative gas fuel system is an
integral part of the car's design, with all controls fully integrated
into the dashboard and gas tanks discreetly stored under the car instead
of taking up any loadspace - unlike many conversions. In addition, Volvo
Bi-Fuel models have been fully crash tested, are built on the same
production lines to the same quality and safety standards as other Volvo
models, and are sold with Volvo Car UK's standard three year warranty.
CNG also offers substantial fuel savings
and is an even cleaner fuel than LPG, but availability is more limited
and tends to be most popular among the commercial vehicle market for
operators or local authorities with their own re-fuelling facilities. It
is hoped that a ‘homefill’ system will enable refuelling from a domestic
gas supply in the future.
