GM announced a new bi-fuel conversion kit for Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks yesterday, and the big news for alternative fuel fans is the kits will only set you back $11,000 over the suggested retail price of the actual truck.
Both the Silverado HD and Sierra 2500 HD will come equipped with a Vortec 6.0L V8 engine that can run on either petrol from the regular tank o CNG from the single light-weight Type 3 tank in the bed that brings extra range as well.
“The announcement of the bi-fuel Silverado and Sierra has been well-received among customers, which sends a clear message that businesses are looking for alternative fuel options to meet their needs,” said Ed Peper, general manager, GM Fleet and Commercial Operations. “The addition of the full-size bi-fuel pickups to our product portfolio is part of our commitment to offer great products, innovative business solutions and an exceptional customer experience.”
