5 CNG cars under ₹10 Lakh I would choose that don't compromise on boot space
- Looking for a CNG car without compromising on boot space? These dual-cylinder models under ₹10 lakh use smart tank packaging to retain usable luggage area while delivering low running costs.
CNG cars are known for their low running costs, but they often come with a major compromise: boot space. Traditional single-cylinder layouts take up most of the luggage area, making them impractical for real-world use.
That’s where dual-cylinder (twin-tank) technology changes things. By splitting the tank into two smaller units placed under the boot floor, these cars retain a usable luggage area without sacrificing practicality.
Here are five CNG cars under ₹10 lakh that use this technology and offer better boot usability.
