LPG for Taxis & Fleets: Fast Payback, Lower Fuel Costs

For high-mileage vehicles like taxis and fleet cars, fuel costs can be a significant burden. LPG conversion offers a direct solution to cut down these expenses, often paying for itself remarkably fast.

Fuel Savings Breakdown

LPG typically costs about half the price of petrol per litre. Although your car might consume 10-15% more LPG by volume, the net effect is a substantial saving per kilometre. For vehicles covering significant daily distances, this translates to 35-45% lower fuel bills overall.

Consider a taxi operating in Tallinn, covering 50,000 km annually. With petrol at €1.70/L and consumption at 10 L/100 km, the annual fuel cost is around €8,500. With LPG at €0.85/L and consumption at 11.5 L/100 km, the annual cost drops to about €4,887. That’s an annual saving of over €3,600.

Payback Period for Commercial Use

A Standart 4-cylinder installation costs €1,200. Given the annual savings, the system pays for itself in just about four months. A Premium system at €1,600 for a 4-cylinder engine would pay back in under six months. This fast return on investment is why LPG is popular with professional drivers.

Choosing the Right System

Not all engines are the same, and neither are LPG systems. The 4th generation sequential injection system is common for many vehicles, but modern fleet vehicles with direct injection engines or turbochargers benefit from a 6th generation liquid phase system. These systems ensure seamless integration, preserve engine performance, and maintain fuel efficiency comparable to petrol. Our systems incorporate multiple safety layers: at least two safety levels, automatic gas shut-off, and a robust multivalve. We partner with leading component brands like Alex, AC Stag, Lovato, Landi Renzo, Digitronic, and Tomasetto, guaranteeing quality and performance. Our prices fit various engine configurations and budgets, ranging from €900 for an Econom 3-4 cylinder system to €1,900 for a Premium 8-cylinder installation.
