After 150 years, a CNG fleet would have produced about 10% less cumulative radiative forcing than a gasoline fleet: a benefit equivalent to a fuel economy improvement of 3 mpg in a 30 mpg fleet. This would eventually be offset by a modest benefit. CNG vehicles fare even worse in comparison to heavy-duty diesel vehicles.
