What is LPG / Autogas?
LPG stands for "Liquefied Petroleum Gas" — a mixture of propane and butane stored under pressure in a tank inside the vehicle. Unlike petrol or diesel, autogas is available at thousands of stations across Germany and Europe.
A converted car runs bivalently — on both petrol and gas. You can switch fuel manually at a cockpit switch, or the control unit can do it automatically.
Your benefits
💰 Cut fuel costs in half
Autogas costs roughly half the price of petrol at the pump. Even after accounting for the ~15–20% higher consumption compared to petrol, you save significantly.
🌱 More environmentally friendly
Autogas burns cleaner than petrol: about 15% less CO₂, far less particulate matter and nitrogen oxides. Great for the environment and for urban low-emission zones.
🚗 Same range
The petrol tank stays, the gas tank is added (often in the spare wheel well). Total range nearly doubles — perfect for commuters and frequent drivers.
🔧 Proven technology
Autogas systems have been refined over decades. We work with high-quality branded equipment and have many years of experience in installation and maintenance.
Our LPG services
- Conversion / installation — we install an autogas system in your vehicle. After a short familiarization period you'll be running on gas.
- Servicing and maintenance — filter changes and system inspection according to manufacturer guidelines (usually every 30,000 km or once a year).
- Gas system inspection (GAP) — mandatory every 24 months. We perform the inspection directly at our workshop.
- Repairs — for problems with seals, injectors, control unit or tank.
- Consultation — we'll check whether a conversion makes sense for your vehicle and driving habits.
Is conversion worthwhile for me?
It depends mainly on two factors:
- Annual mileage: from about 15,000 km per year the conversion typically pays for itself within 2–3 years. Faster for frequent drivers.
- Your vehicle: not every car is equally suitable. Direct-injection engines and some modern motors need special components, or can't be converted at all.
Get free advice — we'll check your vehicle and tell you honestly whether conversion makes sense.
