Nigeria’s local automobile manufacturing firm, Innoson Motors, has announced its latest innovation, the Innoson LNG/CNG Gas Trucks, buses, and cars, at its factory in Nnewi, Anambra State.
The liquified natural gas (LNG) and compressed natural gas (CNG) enabled vehicles were launched on Tuesday, April 20, 2023, by the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) president Otunba Francis Meshioye.
Manufacturers urge FG to partner with Innoson Motors
Innoson Motors’ head of corporate communications, Cornel Osigwe, said the unique feature of the Innoson gas-powered brands is their ability to use CNG which is more affordable than diesel or petrol.
Osigwe’s words:
“It’s high time CNG and LNG-powered vehicles ply Nigerian roads, and IVM remains committed to producing durable, environment-friendly vehicles. This reduces the cost of transportation and encourages sustainability in our environment and development.”
Meshioye added that the vehicles represent great innovation and advancement in the manufacturing sector in Nigeria and Africa.
On his part, the MAN president said it was great to witness what others see in other parts of the world in Nigeria.
The Nation reports that Meshioye asked the Nigerian government to patronise Innoson Vehicles because it is the only way to partner with greatness from Nigeria.
Ada Chukwudozie, Chairman of the South Directorate of MAN, assured manufacturers of a better environment for production because there are plans for the South East zone.
