2002 natural gas vehicle purchasing guide · pdf fileelcome to the 2002 natural gas vehicle...

Welcome to the 2002 Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) Purchasing Guide. This publicationrepresents the most comprehensive source of up-to-date information on natural gasvehicles and engines available.

As more customers look to purchase alternative fuel vehicles, major manufacturers are respondingby offering an increasing number and variety of NGV options. The goal of this booklet is to matchbuyers with the right NGV for them.

Inside these pages you’ll find light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, off-road vehicles, natural gasengines, upfit vehicles and natural gas hybrid vehicles, listed alphabetically by manufacturer. Manyof these manufacturers have a long history of producing gasoline and diesel engines and/or vehiclesand offer the same quality and reliability in their natural gas options. Each listing comes completewith contact information, model name and description, vehicle specifications and commercialstatus.

This booklet was produced by the Natural Gas Vehicle Coalition, the national voice for the NGVindustry. The Coalition represents its members primarily in four areas - Government Affairs,Technology, PR/Communications and Market Development. The NGVC also acts as an informationclearinghouse for members, and serves as an information and referral “first stop” on NGV industryissues and opportunities, helping members quickly respond to the changing business environment.
