Our CNG Volvo S80 FT and Volvo V70 CNG conversions

This model has successfully completed its Emission Lab Testing in October 2009. Both our Tartarini LPG and CNG conversion are being added to the Powershift Register.

We are ready to convert your 5 cylinder Volvo using Tartarini Auto System to a dual fuel* Compressed Natural Gas vehicle.

The car uses the 2.5 FT version of the standard car's turbocharged engine meaning it can run on Bio Ethanol as a reserve to its Bio Methane system. Thus keeping nitrous oxides and CO2 emissions really low at all times.

There isn't a great deal of room left under the bonnet when the new Volvo was delivered to us.

Our work included adding five independent gas injectors, fitted as close as feasible possible to the existing petrol ones.

There needs to be a Tartarini gas translation ECU and it's associated wiring. The ECU is about the same size as a car radio. The loom has wires to take the existing petrol injection signal and another set to run the new gas injectors.

Here is a photograph before we started.

Operating on gaseous fuels is easy.

Simply get in and drive, our systems are fully automatic. The system even tells you when it has switched back to petrol because you have run out of gas.

However, CNG's inferior energy density to petrol, means it can't go as far on a single tank of fuel, infact around 200 miles before Auto change-over to petrol. One needs to ask, how often do we travel for 400 miles in one go?

Recently I drove through France, Germany, Austria, Czech Rep to the Polish boarded on gas taken at 160-180 interval, we only need to run on petrol for 5 miles (that’s because one filling station was closed on a Sunday)

The environmental advantages of natural gas as a motor fuel can be further enhanced by the use of bio natural gas (biomethane)

Biomethane is suitable as a fuel for NGVs without any restrictions. In 2020, enough biomethane could be available to fuel more than four million NGVs in Germany.

The UK currently has less than 20 public CNG filling facilities.

Natural gas has great potential as a motor fuel. It is not only considerably cheaper than petrol and diesel, but is also very favorable for the environment.

But it does mean a S80-CNG will produce around 25 per cent less CO2 than the standard model. Because of this our conversion has achieved the accolade of being listed on the Powershift Register. This is the list Transport for London excepts for vehicles that can be registered a congestion charge. So our work has produced the only current model Volvo, to be exempt from the london congestion charge.


London Congestion Charge exemptions

Not only is there the £8 per day charge saving to be enjoyed. There are huge environmental saving by running on compressed bio methane from Landfill sites, as the London Borough of Camden are. From the waste they collect, they can process this and charge-up their S80.
