Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), also known as propane, is a clean-burning, high-energy alternative fuel that's been used for decades to power light-, medium-duty and heavy-duty propane vehicles. Propane vehicles work much like gasoline-powered vehicles with spark-ignited engines. Propane is stored as a liquid in a relatively low-pressure tank (about 150 pounds per square inch).
