LNG fuel systems 0-500 lbs. lighter than diesel, and 1000 lbs. lighter than CNG.
2. 800+ Mile Day Cab Range
Two saddle tanks enable 800+ mile range on a day cab for hub-and-spoke operations.
3. Cryogenic Tanks do not have a limited lifetime, nor annual maintenance
Tanks operate at 50-150 psi, and only require an annual visual inspection.
4. Refined, Clean LNG Offers Lowered Maintenance Costs

5. Maintenance-Free Aftertreatment System
LNG Trucks are equipped with a Three-Way Catalyst and are not bogged down with SCRs.
6. Safety
LNG is non-toxic and non-corrosive. If spilled, it will evaporate and not impact the environment. LNG is the safest of all common fuels available.
7. Driver Retention
Drivers love operating LNG trucks because they are a much quieter ride and the drivers do not smell like diesel at the end of the day.
