"Conversion" saving factor
This is how to make your car into a piggy bank
Conversions save money. We will tell you how you can effectively save gasoline and pay less tax.
Less pollution, less taxes
It pays to be clean: By installing a cold start valve or retrofitted catalytic convertor, you are not just protecting the environment. The government is rewarding those who retrofit their cars with tax breaks. Converting your car also increases its resale value. To find out whether your car can be converted, consult your TÜV STATION.

Drive using gas and save
Meanwhile, gas propulsion is turning out to be a real alternative to gasoline and Diesel. This not only reduces the tax burden. One litre of super unleaded costs more than double. This makes the 20 percent higher rate of consumption easy to bear. The network of filling stations for gas-powered vehicles is also growing. Of course, the conversion costs between 1,800 and 3,500 euros, depending on the vehicle.
If you drive a lot, you can save a lot. For a medium-sized car, the conversion pays for itself after around 30,000 km. This means The newer your car and the early you have it converted, the greater the gain.
Basically, any gasoline-powered vehicle can be converted. Compared to a natural gas tank, a liquid gas tank is so small that it can fit into the trunk of any car. Ensure that the conversion is done properly in order to save yourself any possible problems when registering as a gas-powered vehicle.
Stay away from inexpensive conversion offers in eastern Europe
Very few of the gas systems offered there are approved for use in Germany. If you install them anyway, you will lose the operating permit for your vehicle. It is best to go to a German vehicle specialist. You will save time, money and your nerves when getting your permit. Specialists are on-site to answer any questions.
