Government Grants

Since its launch in August 2006, the Australian Government's LPG Vehicle Scheme has helped hundreds of thousands of Australians to successfully converted to LPG motoring. The scheme currently offers a grant of $1750 for the LPG conversion (retrofit) of a new or used petrol or diesel motor vehicle.

The 2009 Federal Budget advised that, over the next few years, this grant will reduce as follows:

The scheme currently offers a grant of $1500 for the LPG conversion (retrofit) of a new or used petrol or diesel motor vehicle.

  • $1,500 from 1/7/10
  • $1,250 from 1/7/11
  • $1,000 from 1/7/12 (until 30/6/14)

For further information on the LPG Vehicle Scheme, including eligibility criteria, call the Ausindustry hotline on 132846 or visit the web site ausindustry.gov.au.

On average, LPG Autogas sells for half the price per litre of unleaded petrol. While LPG contains less energy per litre than petrol - slightly increasing fuel consumption - the much lower pump price of LPG means your total vehicle running costs will be significantly reduced.

Those savings are improved even further by fitting an Orbital LLi system - its superior combustion efficiency improving LPG fuel consumption over other, less sophisticated, LPG fuel systems.



Here's a comparison of average annual running costs for a Ford Falcon BF Sedan 6cyl Auto on petrol and equipped with Orbital LLi:

System Type / Fuel Kilometers / Year Price (Per Litre) Cost P/A

  • DI-VCT I6 / Petrol 20000 / $1.27* $2832.10
  • Orbital LLi / Autogas 20000 / $0.53* $1621.80
  • Saving $0.74* $1210.30

Environmental Benefits

With global warming a reality, the world is in a race to find cleaner alternative fuels that produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions. LPG Autogas is our most widely and readily available alternative fuel, with more than 3200 outlets across Australia.

LPG-powered vehicles emit significantly fewer greenhouse gases than petrol-powered equivalents. Orbital's tests show that converting a petrol engine with our LLi system reduces C02 emissions by up to 13 per cent. The LLi system has been specifically calibrated to ensure the emission requirements of the Australian Design Rules are maintained.

Performance

Once upon a time converting a petrol engine to run on LPG was a trade-off: improved running costs and emissions had to be balanced against reduced power, torque and driveability. With Liquid LPG injection there is no compromise. Orbital's LLi system produces petrol-equivalent power and torque outputs for a smooth, flawless driving experience.

It's a level of performance that comes from the technical superiority of liquid injection combined with Orbital's globally renowned in-house engineering expertise means our systems are fully developed and thoroughly tested for driveability
