CNG vs Electric Car: <\/strong>Whenever it comes to choosing a car with low running cost in the Indian auto market, customers have only two main options. CNG and Electric Vehicle (EV). If you are thinking in terms of the next 15 years i.e. the entire lifecycle of any car, then this decision becomes even more important.<\/p>\n

Over a long period of 15 years, it is not just the initial price of the car that matters, but the subsequent big factors like fuel cost, maintenance, battery life and resale value change the game.

This initial difference of 15 years of ownership matters a lot, because to buy an EV you have to invest more from day one or take a bigger loan (which will attract interest). However, CNG cars easily fit into the budget.<\/p>\n
