The first dedicated-CNG coach operating commercially in my hometown since May 2021, with a 320hp, 5-cyl 9.3L Scania engine. It's used for a charter service between Porto Alegre and Charqueadas. This year for the first time both Diesel fuel and CNG became more expensive than regular gasoline in Brazil, but some operators may favor CNG and biomethane over Diesel as there is no need for a complex aftertreatment system.
