Which car models are CNG/LPG Conversion Kits compatible with? Are there certain car models or engine types that are not suitable for CNG/LPG conversion?

Compatibility of CNG (compressed natural gas) and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) conversion kits (Conversion Kits) varies based on several factors including vehicle model, engine type, year of manufacture, and original design. Here is some basic overview of its compatibility:

Good compatibility models:

Commercial vehicles: Such as taxis, buses, trucks, etc. These models usually have high demand for the use of CNG/LPG due to high operating costs, so many models are designed with this demand in mind.
Older models: For some older models, especially diesel engine models, due to the improvement of emission standards, converting to CNG/LPG can help them meet more stringent emission regulations.
Certain brands of passenger cars: Some car manufacturers provide official or semi-official CNG/LPG conversion kits, which have good compatibility with specific models and engines.

Vehicle models or engine types not suitable for CNG/LPG conversion:

High-performance models: High-performance models typically require higher fuel energy density and a wider power band, and CNG/LPG may not provide comparable performance to gasoline or diesel.
Direct injection engines: The design and operation of direct injection engines do not match the combustion characteristics of CNG/LPG, so conversion may be difficult.
New Models: Some new models use advanced emission control systems and engine technologies that may be incompatible with the combustion characteristics of CNG/LPG.
Models with complex electronic control systems: Some high-end models use complex electronic control systems, and these systems may be incompatible with CNG/LPG conversion kits, causing problems after conversion.
It should be noted that even if certain car models or engine types may be suitable for CNG/LPG conversion in theory, other factors need to be considered in actual operation, such as local regulations, safety standards, modification costs, etc. In addition, after CNG/LPG conversion, vehicle maintenance and upkeep also require special attention to ensure its safety and reliability.

Before deciding to carry out a CNG/LPG conversion, it is best to seek advice from a professional tuner or vehicle manufacturer to ensure that the chosen modification option meets your needs and local regulations.
