Alternative Fuels/ Technologies

A range of engineering approaches to deriving power for cars and vans, other than the conventional road fuels such as (unleaded) petrol and diesel. Alternative fuels include liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), compressed natural gas (CNG), battery storage for electrical power, hybrid (combination of a small petrol engine with an electric motor) and fuel cells. This is currently a major area of technological development across the motor industry lowering there Co2 emmissions to manufacture greener vehicles.
