If they can sell an dedicated LPi Cruze from the factory, they will have a fantastic marketing advantage. I really hope this happens.

That is good news, something that is an industry first to silence the critics.

I hope they beef up the suspension because LPG stuff does weigh a lot.

They should definately go ahead with this, imagine the the field day marketing could have. LPG cruze would cost peanuts to run on fuel provided the system used is up to scratch. Very surprised if it didnt sell, thats if the general public get over the "LPG is for taxi's" conceptions

Guys,

It won't be LPi and it won't be dedicated.

Dual fuel and IMPCO-BRC Sequent SVI system like the VE Commodore. A toroidal tank will be fitted to the spare wheel well.

Industry first???? How so?
LPG stuff is heavy??? That's another one I am having trouble understanding. Its a cruze. It will only get a 50L tank. Wont weigh much more than a average man, and that's the whole system.

Yeah. I know people that carry that kind of weight all the time in their cars for no reason!
