Diesel vs CNG: Which Fuel Offers Better Mileage?
Explore how diesel and CNG compare in mileage, cost, and eco-friendliness in this detailed Q&A.
Video transcript
Diesel engines generally offer higher mileage compared to CNG engines. Diesel vehicles can average around 15-20 km/l, whereas CNG vehicles typically offer 20-25 km/kg. However, CNG is cheaper, and emits fewer pollutants, making it a more environmentally friendly option. Choosing between them depends on whether you prioritize performance and range (diesel) or cost and eco-friendliness (CNG).
