When it comes to safety, every S-CNG car is equipped with an advanced dual solenoid system along with an auto cut-off mechanism for gas leak situations. The CNG pipelines are also made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel and the CNG filler filter that further protects the CNG system from corrosion and dust particles. An integrated electrical system/ harness further eliminates any chances of onboard short-circuits.

Another crucial development that works in favor of S-CNG cars is how convenient theyve become. The auto-switch feature that helps seamless shift between CNG and petrol modes, and the NGC receptacle special nozzle that ensures safer and faster CNG refueling, really makes S-CNG cars less of a hassle on a daily basis.
