Why are LPG conversions so popular in Australia?
One of the reasons LPG Conversions became so popular in Australia was because of the rebates that were available from both the State and Federal Government.

Is it worth it to convert a Hilux to LPG?
An injected LPG system will have the equivalent power as on petrol (or even more in some cases). My Hilux suffers a little bit being a carburettor car, but it is not a massive power loss. In the last few years Diesel Gas systems have become very popular, although they are quite different to normal LPG conversions.
Which is better, 1 litre of petrol or LPG?
1 litre of LPG has less energy than 1 litre of petrol. What this means is that 60 litres of Petrol might get you 500km. In the same vehicle, 60 litres of LPG would probably only get you around 420km. Of course, this varies depending on the LPG Conversion you get done, but it is something to bear in mind.
