Maruti Suzuki recently showcased the eVX electric SUV and the WagonR Flex Fuel at the Bharat Mobility Show. The carmaker also unveiled a version of the Brezza that runs on Compressed Biomethane Gas (CBG).



The Brezza CBG is powered by a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder, K15C petrol engine, which produces 102 BHP and 137 Nm. The engine makes 87 BHP and 121 Nm while running on compressed biomethane.



On the outside, the Brezza CBG looks identical to the petrol version. In addition to a 45-litre petrol tank, the SUV comes with a 55-litre tank for CNG/CBG.



Maruti Suzuki hasn't revealed the exact launch timeline for the Brezza CBG.

Any idea what is the difference between the CNG model and the CBG model? Do we have some filters to maintain purity of gas?

Also with commercial CBG availability and blending still some years off, I don't think these will have any impact on the industry for the next 3 to 4 years.

As far as I am aware, there is no difference between the two fuels when they are out in the market except for the source and method they are derived. Biomethane has some challenges with respect to the volume fraction of methane content in its raw form, but government is all set up to implement quality gates before it can be allowed to be brought into the gas grid.

I used to refuel my ex Passat 1.4 TSI ECOFUEL CNG car which I drove for 30,000 odd km in more than 2 years with the Bio CNG. Never faced any trouble. Always got 22km+ per kg of CNG. Many companies here sell only bio CNG. I felt absolutely no difference while driving naturally available methane or manually generated bio fuel.

The best part about refueling CNG here is you get 200+ bar of pressure and I always refueled more than the specified tank capacity.

So this would be exactly same as a Brezza CNG other than the fancy badging!! Expected this from our numero uno sales leader!
