Why
should I switch to a cleaner fuelled vehicle?
Quite simply because it saves you money and reduces your impact
on the environment.
Did
you know that a 1.8 litre car travelling 12,000 miles per year would,
on average, produce 4.32 tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2). It takes
approximately 6 trees to absorb this amount of CO2. Harmful emissions
of Oxides of Nitrogen (NOx), Particulate Matter (PM) and other pollutants
are released from petrol and diesel vehicles, which have an impact
on local air quality affecting the elderly, asthmatics and people
with respiratory problems.
Did you know section
Did you know that you could purchase a factory fitted dual fuel
(LPG and petrol or CNG and petrol) vehicle for minimal additional cost?
Did you know that you could fit an LPG system to any vehicle whilst
retaining the original petrol fuel, giving you twice the
driving range with two fuel tanks?
Did you know that there are around 14 LPG refuelling stations in
operation across Merseyside?
Did you know the Government is encouraging the use of alternative
fuels and is offering huge fuel cost savings to individuals and
businesses?
Did you know that the Government has made a rolling 3 year commitment to fix fuel duty on all alternative fuels relative to that on Petrol and Diesel. This means that every year we will know the level of duty for the next 3 years. Fuel duty on LPG is currently about 5.2p/litre, whereas fuel duty on petrol is approximately 47p/litre!!!
Did you know that many forms of hybrid vehicle are commercially
available on Merseyside, click here for more details.
These vehicles are less polluting and have a much larger mpg, in
comparison to petrol and diesel vehicles.
