Video transcript

CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is measured in kilograms (kg) rather than liters. A 55-liter tank typically holds about 10-13 kg of CNG, depending on the tank's pressure and the CNG's temperature. Always refer to your vehicle's specifications for precise filling capacity.

Questions and answers

  1. How is CNG quantity measured in fuel tanks?

    CNG is measured in kilograms rather than liters because it is a compressed gas, and its weight depends on pressure and temperature conditions in the tank.

  2. What factors affect how much CNG a 55 litre tank can hold?

    The tank's pressure rating and the ambient temperature of the gas influence the total kilogram amount of CNG a 55 litre tank can hold.

  3. Can I fully fill my 55 litre tank with CNG at any time?

    You should always refer to your vehicle manufacturer’s specifications, as filling limits depend on safety and pressure requirements.
