The era of “green fuel” has now started in the automobile industry. After petrol and diesel, companies are now increasingly moving towards alternative fuels. Suzuki has taken a major step in this direction.

The company has introduced its new SUV Suzuki Victoris CBG (Compressed Biomethane Gas) at Japan Motor Show 2025. This SUV is the first biomethane running car of its kind, which is not only better for the environment, but can also become a new opportunity for the rural areas of India.

Talking about of design, Suzuki Victoris CBG has a length of 4,360 mm, width 1,795 mm and height 1,655 mm. The SUV features stylish vinyls and raps of “Suzuki Compressed Biomethane Gas ”, which give it a distinct identity from the rest of the models.

Its maximum design is the same as the Victoris CNG version, which has a special nozzle in the fuel filler area so that CBG can be easily filled. Its CNG tank is placed under the boot area, leaving enough space for passengers.
