Individual Buyers: If you are an individual consumer you have many vehicle and equipment makers, dealers, and fuels to choose from right here in Ohio. Ultimately, your choices will be based on your location, vehicle needs, driving patterns, and your personal or family reasons for wanting a more efficient or cleaner American fuel vehicle - such as saving fuel, improving air quality, decreasing exposure to harmful fumes, supporting Ohio’s economy, and/or supporting efforts to wean our nation from petroleum fuels. Email or call COCFC at (614) 292-5435 when you are ready for assistance in evaluating options. In the mean time, a good place to start as you gather general information is the U.S. Department of Energy’s Vehicle Buyer’s Guide for Consumers. https://cleancities.energy.gov/vbg/consumers.
Used AFVs:
One of the best kept AFV secrets is that buying used can save a ton of money.
Used AFVs are often less expensive than a comparable, e.g. same mileage, age
and condition, used petroleum fueled vehicle. Buying one is easier than you
think. Start here (future link) to learn more about where to buy in Central
Ohio and elsewhere.
CNG Auto Sales - CNG Auto Sales specializes in selling used compressed natural gas vehicles. Normally, you will find prices of vehicles to be less than a comparable gasoline or diesel vehicle. They also offer excellent service on the vehicles they sell. See a sample of vehicles (future link) currently available and/or call them at (740) 623-2186.
New AFVs:
Visit the Vehicle
Buyers Guide (VBG) to get specifications on new light and heavy duty vehicles
available from manufacturers and learn about incentives that might exist.
At the bottom of the VBG page you can choose links to information designed
for fleets
or individual consumers.
