Hi All,
Need your advise on CNG car. So here's why I'm going for CNG. My daily commute to office is 70kms (80% highway + 20% city) 5 days a week. CNG is still cheaper than diesel (also has better Rs/km ration) and availability is quite good in my city.
I had doubts regarding CNG kits coversion which are now cleared thanks to elaborative thread of teambhp.
Now coming to the point, my budget is around 5-5.5 for the car. I am thinking of buying either Accent CNG model which comes with company fitted CNG kit or buy Dezire LXI and convert it into CNG. Reason to choose accent and dezire is that I will lose the boot space due to CNG tank.
Pros and cons of accent-CNG
(+) company fitted CNG
(+) 1500 cc engine
(+) comes with all features (power windows, other things)
(-) Height of the car (I am 5'11")
(-) quite older look
price 5.5 ex-showroom
Pros and cons of Dezire-LXI
(+) Proven ride quality
(+) 1200 cc engine
(-) LXI does not have the features
(+) Height of the car
(+) newer compared to accent
price 5 ex-showroom + 35-40k CNG kit
Please also suggest any other car that may fit my budget and needs.
