Natural gas powers more than 100,000 vehicles in the United States and roughly 11.2 million vehicles worldwide. Natural gas vehicles (NGVs) are a good choice for high-mileage fleets--such as buses and taxis--that are centrally fueled or operate within a limited area. The advantages of natural gas as an alternative fuel include its domestic availability, widespread distribution infrastructure, low cost compared with gasoline and diesel, and clean-burning qualities.
