Renault held a presentation of Logan CNG - a version that runs on two types of fuel

Today, a modification of the Logan was presented, which is adapted for both gasoline and methane driving. The company's employees explained that the assembly of Logan CNG will be carried out in Togliatti, the partner will be ATS.


Dealers will begin accepting orders for the novelty from January 2022. It is expected that the organization of production will take no more than a couple of months. According to the experts who presented the prototypes, such an improvement will attract additional customers interested in reducing fuel costs.

The press service of the French concern noted that no fundamental differences from the standard versions should be expected. This is a serial car with a naturally aspirated 1,6-liter engine producing 82 hp and a manual transmission. Due to a number of technical solutions, the engine will operate equally efficiently on both gasoline and methane.

The size of the fuel tank will remain the same as the standard - 50 liters. The gas tank is located in the trunk and has an impressive capacity of 90 liters. Due to this, the power reserve of the car will be about 1000 km.

The system is easy to use and does not require driver intervention, which is important. The engine is started on gasoline, after which the electronics automatically switches to gas. If methane runs out while driving, the car will switch to gasoline in the same way.

There is also a small button on the central tunnel next to the ignition switch. With its help, you can not only manually switch fuel types, but also control the amount of gas in the cylinder thanks to the LED scale.

Renault representatives are confident that the model will be especially in demand in the corporate sector, since the use of methane can reduce the cost per kilometer by 3 times. The advantage is that gas equipment has the necessary certificates and is written in the documents.

The updated modification will be subject to a standard warranty - 100 thousand kilometers, or 3 years of operation, it all depends on how the car is actively used.
