Natural gas. Natural gas (also called fossil gas, methane gas or simply gas) is a naturally occurring mixture of gaseous hydrocarbons consisting primarily of methane (95%) [1] in addition to various smaller amounts of other higher alkanes. Traces of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and helium are also usually present. [2]
Shown below are the CNG storage tanks in the trunk. Bi-fuel vehicles are vehicles with multifuel engines capable of running on two fuels.
