An LPG-Powered Vehicle - BiFUEL LPG
Reference number: DE011DE003
Product description and Features
Conversion of all VW Caddy and VW Caddy Maxi 1.6l SI-engine (75 kW) models for bivalent operation on liquefied petroleum gas/gasoline with underfloor tank.
The conversion concept was developed in consultation with Volkswagen AG giving consideration to all safety-relevant criteria and the possibility of unrestricted vehicle use.
Manufacturer’s Warranty / Liability for Defects
The vehicle retains the manufacturer’s warranty after conversion. The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover engine damage resulting from gas-powered operation. In this case, the conversion equipment manufacturer gives a warranty on the engine as well as on the LPG system.
Volkswagen Certificate of Compliance
As a manufacturer of liquefied-gas systems for the VW Caddy, we will provide a certificate of compliance from the Volkswagen Commercial Vehicle Development division (currently in preparation).
We are the only converters to use a Volkswagen-AG-approved gas-tight cylinder head for the LPG mode.
