"We are pleased to become the exclusive supplier of LPG systems to this leading OEM customer and look forward to continuing our commitment to deliver our LPG systems for their LPG-fueled vehicle platforms," said David M.

Westport will be supplying its LPG system solutions for this OEM's Euro 6 vehicle applications starting Q4 2023. As a cost-competitive alternative fuel solution to achieve sustainability goals, LPG is an especially compelling option in markets like Europe where the refueling infrastructure is well established.
LPG and bio-LPG, also known as propane or autogas, is a clean-burning alternative fuel used to power light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. LPG fueled vehicles are a cost-competitive low-emissions alternative to vehicles that use gasoline (petrol) or diesel, and the technology satisfies stringent regulatory requirements for emissions reductions. LPG fueled vehicles are permitted to drive in emissions-restricted traffic zones in Europe.
