CNG Motorcycle from Argentinian Manufacturer Zanella
While we Indians worry too much on fuel economy and an Indian company is the world's largest seller, the Argentinians have got ahead in this respect- Argentinian company Zanella has launched a CNG powered bike.
This is possibly the first bike in the world to come with a factory fitted Compressed Natural gas power.
The bike is essentially a converted RX-150 model and as the name suggests, displaces 150cc. The bike has space for two tanks that stocks enough gas for a range of approximately 100km (120miles).
The tanks store a total of 1.4 m3 of natural gas and the storage tank is in the same place as a conventional tank. Also on board is a 3.5 litres gasoline tank which will take care of immediate emergencies. The CNG option costs US$ 285 (1000 pesos) and is supplied by local manufacturer Ecopos, based in Santa Fe, Argentina.
