If we look at current conditions in which our natural resources in the form of oil becoming increasingly depleted, we must start thinking about other alternatives that can substitute for petroleum to run the car. Besides the oil reserves are increasingly depleted, we must also begin to think about the pollution it causes. So when it needed to be environmentally friendly cars can reduce pollution in the earth.
One alternative currently being developed is a fuel gas. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is a liquid gas that is in the earth, whose existence is often encountered when to turn on the gas stove. Its flammable and more environmentally friendly than the current car fuel alternatives makes LPG fuel environmentally friendly cars.
Actually not too hard to use LPG as automotive fuel, many manufacturers are doing research about it. Just do a few modifications to the car especially on the engine.
As performed by Italian car manufacturer Alfa Romeo, a manufacturer of luxury cars combine a gasoline engine with a gas-fueled engines (LPG) capable of speeding.Because the combustion process that occurs with the LPG fuel is also perfect that the power generated will be maximum.
Inside the trunk there is a size 39 liter gas cylinders and gasoline combined with LPG, the Alfa Romeo Mito go as far as 1,200 km. Although arguably environmentally friendly cars, Mito can still dibesut to 120 horsepower and takes 8.8 to reach 0100 km / hour.
As in many other countries, environmentally friendly cars always get special attention from the government so they give tax breaks, cut 4500 pounds, or USD 67.5 million.Mito is priced at 13,900 LPG-powered or around Rp 220 million.
In Indonesia there was already a car repair shop who tried to use LPG fuel for stoves commonly used as automotive fuel. A clear benefit from the use of LPG fuel is more than the use of gasoline or diesel fuel are becoming increasingly depleted, besides the issue of global warming is one cause of the fumes.
