Bi-Fuel CNG Pickups From General Motors

2013 Chevrolet Silverado Bi-fuel
CNG Leasing is offering leasing of the 2013 Chevy Silverado & GMC Sierra HD CNG pickup. It is offered in Extended Cab with 2 or 4 Wheel Drive models.
One of the best ways to improve your fleet's bottom line is to lower your fuel costs. Which is why the addition of the 2013 bi-fuel Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 2500 HD is such welcome news for fleet managers. Both feature a Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) option, which provides reduced CO2 emissions over gasoline and diesel engines, while delivering full size truck utility.

The 2013 bi-fuel Silverado and Sierra 2500HD offer fueling flexibility, with a combined CNG and gasoline range of more than 650 miles4 — the longest range available in the bi-fuel truck market.

Each truck uses a Vortec 6.0-liter V8 engine that seamlessly transitions between CNG and gasoline. The CNG fuel delivery and storage system is covered under GM's limited warranty and is serviceable by Chevrolet and GMC dealers. Plus all components have GM service part numbers for broad availability, providing you with peace of mind that parts will be available to keep your vehicles on the road.

In addition to lower fuel costs, they offer an impressive array of options and configurations, including standard and long-box and two-or-four-wheel drive in the extended cab models.
