introduction

elcome to the 2002 Natural Gas Vehicle (NGV) Purchasing Guide. This publication represents the most comprehensive source of up-to-date information on natural gas W vehicles and engines available.

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

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

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