Dana Motors Limited, the exclusive distributor of Kia vehicles in Nigeria, has revealed plans to introduce Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles into the Nigerian market by the end of this year.

The Firm said this in a statement where it stated that the move was part of its mission to revolutionize transportation in Nigeria, with the DFM brand of buses to be manufactured at its Lagos plant.

Having previously introduced Nigeria’s first electric vehicle, the Kia Soul, Dana Motors noted that it was set to introduce a range of high-efficiency CNG-powered vehicles.

The Vice Chairman (VC) of the group, Francis Ogboro, said, “At Dana Motors Limited, our goal is to offer Nigerians innovative, eco-friendly, and budget-friendly automotive solutions.

“The introduction of CNG-powered vehicles perfectly aligns with our vision to improve the quality of life for all Nigerians while addressing the rising cost of vehicle ownership.”

Its Vice President, Olu Tikolo, added that “recognizing CNG vehicles’ potential to transform public transportation, we aim to enhance Nigerians’ overall quality of life.’

“The launch of CNG-powered vehicles will contribute significantly to Nigeria’s emissions reduction, sustainability, and affordability goals.”
