how much will I save on car tax with LPG converted Bi-fuel?
I am thinking about buying a 52 plate 2.0L Kia Sportage which has been converted to LPG fuel,does anyone know how much car tax will be on this? And is it cheaper to run? Will appreciate any information about this, thanks.
you need to state where you are located.
In the US, I don’t think you can convert a Sportage to LPG because you need to have the tank located "outside". I guess a secondary chamber can be fitted with vents to the outside.
Next, the fuel mileage will decrease by 25%, no matter where you live. The taxes on LPG varies. In the US it varies by state. Some states have fixed tax paid annually and others require you to render your miles driven and than a tax is applied to the miles and other states have the same tax rate as gasoline.
It won’t change your car tax band. This is fixed when the car is type approved by the manufacturer, and there is nothing you can do to change it.
It will change the running costs, as the fuel is cheaper (although you will use more fuel, because the fuel has a lower energy density).
