Man Buys Cheap Fuel Priced at N150 Only, Fills His Car With N1900 at NIPCO Filling Station
- A driver was happy that he had converted his car to be powered with compressed natural gas (CNG)
- Instead of using premium motor spirit as fuel, the man took his car to the NIPCO filling station and filled it with CNG
- The CNG cost him N150 per cubic meter, and he bought 12.74 cubic meters, thereby filling his car with only N1900
A driver who has converted his car to run with compressed natural gas (CNG) is now enjoying cheap fuel.
The man no longer uses premium motor spirit (PMS) to run his car but instead, has a cylinder installed in the car to carry CNG.

In a video, the man was seen at a NIPCO filling station where CNG sold at N150 per cubic meter.
The cylinder in his car was filled with 12.74 cubic meters of CNG, meaning he spent a little more than N1900 to fill it.
The man noted that it would cost him no more than N2000 to fill his car’s tank with CNG fuel.
In the video posted by @meitlandautocng, the process of filling the car with CNG took only a few minutes, and the driver was happy.
