Nowadays the use of clean fuel on vehicles is actively studied to prevent air pollution in cities. Because of this social need, KIA has developed various vehicles that use alternative fuels[1,2,3,4]. In this study the development of a CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) vehicle that was converted from a 2.0 ℓ Sportage, multi-purpose vehicle, is described. The development of its engine, the conversion of the vehicle, its EMS (Engine Management System), and the reduction of its emissions are discussed.
