  • Curvv
  • Indica
  • Indica Vista
  • Indigo
  • Manza
  • Nexon
  • Punch
  • Tiago
  • Tiago NRG
  • Tigor
  • Zest

Indica includes Xeta versions; Indigo includes Indigo ECS; Manza includes Indigo Manza.

MIJO also has a technically developed CNG solution for the Curvv 1.2-litre Hyperion GDI engine. Diesel and battery-electric versions are outside this petrol-car conversion guide.

Application-specific export quotation

Request a quotation for your country, exact vehicle and engine, selected system and order quantity. Confirm whether the quotation includes the ECU, reducer, injectors, cylinder or tank, valves, wiring, installation, freight, taxes and destination documentation. No domestic fitted price is an export quotation.

CNG mileage and savings

For standard Conventional and Sequential systems, a general thumb rule is CNG mileage in km/kg ≈ 1.5 × your petrol mileage in km/l. For example, 10 km/l gives an estimated 15 km/kg.

This rule does not apply to DI engines. Use the savings calculator for listed DI vehicles; contact MIJO for an estimate if your vehicle is not listed.

Cylinder choice and boot space

Car-cylinder options include 60 L and 65 L single cylinders and smaller twin-cylinder (dual-cylinder) combinations. Compare remaining luggage space, seating and spare-wheel access with the installer.

Installation, service and warranty

Agree installation and commissioning responsibilities, training, maintenance intervals, spare-parts supply and written warranty terms with MIJO and the confirmed local partner before ordering. Service arrangements and warranty coverage depend on the application and supply agreement.

Plan your export enquiry

Send your country, company, vehicle make and model, engine code, model year, transmission and expected quantity. Include any AMT, AGS, CVT, IVT, DCT or 4×4 configuration. MIJO can review the application, documentation and supply options before confirming a quotation.

Questions before fitment

What should an export quotation include?

Request a quotation for your country, exact vehicle and engine, selected system and order quantity. Confirm whether the quotation includes the ECU, reducer, injectors, cylinder or tank, valves, wiring, installation, freight, taxes and destination documentation. No domestic fitted price is an export quotation.

Which CNG kit for Tata Altroz should I choose?

Compare the proposed MIJO CNG kit by its matched components, installation, calibration, applicable documentation, written warranty and local service. Gold or Premium labels, an “Italian kit”, imported origin, online rankings or another car’s review do not identify the right configuration. These apply across the petrol models listed above.

How do Tata’s port-injected and Hyperion GDI engines differ?

  • Port-injected MPI or MPFI engines: petrol enters through the intake ports. Sequential CNG is used for supported port-injected applications; the exact engine and destination requirements must be confirmed.
  • Curvv 1.2-litre Hyperion GDI: petrol is injected directly into the combustion chamber, requiring a dedicated Direct Injection CNG system.

Turbocharging alone does not mean DI. The supported Nexon turbo-MPI application uses Sequential. MIJO has technically developed the Curvv Hyperion GDI solution; MIJO Direct Drive 2.0 uses KME ECU technology from Poland for supported Direct Injection engines.

How does a standard Sequential CNG system work?

CNG means Compressed Natural Gas. In a Sequential system, the reducer lowers gas pressure, injectors meter gas and the ECU coordinates delivery. Three-cylinder, four-cylinder and other supported configurations use the corresponding ECU and injectors.

Standard port-injected Sequential systems start on petrol and change automatically to CNG at calibrated operating conditions; the driver can select petrol when needed.

How do I measure actual CNG mileage and running cost?

Measure actual mileage by dividing distance travelled on CNG by kilograms refilled over comparable fills. Traffic, load, driving style, vehicle condition and calibration affect the result. CNG mileage is measured in km/kg, not per litre.

For running cost per kilometre, divide the local CNG price per kg by CNG mileage in km/kg. The calculator uses local fuel prices and monthly kilometres to estimate savings and payback. Estimates are not guaranteed or factory-certified mileage.

Does a CNG kit for Tata Punch use the factory iCNG cylinder layout?

Factory iCNG specifications and any factory twin-cylinder or underbody layout are specific vehicle installations. They do not establish the layout of a MIJO retrofit. Factory tank-capacity, boot-space and certified-mileage figures must be kept separate from the proposed aftermarket cylinder, mounting and remaining space.

Litres describe water capacity, not gas weight. For a standard system, a 60 L cylinder holding about 8 kg at 15 km/kg gives an estimated 120 km of CNG range. Actual filling varies with residual pressure, gas temperature, station pressure and cut-off.

Review cylinder size, weight, mounting, valve access, ground clearance, passenger load, usable seating, luggage and spare-wheel access with the installer. Factory boot volume and another car’s installation do not specify the space left in your vehicle; include any commercial equipment in the layout discussion.

Confirm the cylinder manufacturer, specification and applicable cylinder documents. MIJO supplies the conversion kit; cylinders are sourced from cylinder manufacturers.

How do I arrange servicing, software or replacement parts?

Contact MIJO or the confirmed supply partner with the invoice, system identification and service record. Kit warranty, installer workmanship and vehicle-manufacturer warranty have separate terms; original vehicle cover must not be assumed unchanged. Confirm support in your country, request an itemised service quote and follow the car manufacturer’s engine-oil specification.

For software, calibration or replacement parts, provide the installed ECU and component identification, installation history and symptoms, including poor running, warning lights or fuel-level readings. Filters, reducers, switches, sensors, emulators and wiring must match the system. Use the matching ECU software and wiring downloads and components and accessories catalogue. The fitment centre checks vehicle condition, installs and calibrates the system, completes leak and operating checks and a road check, and explains fuel changeover.

Which approvals and documents do I need for a new CNG kit?

Confirm destination-country requirements for the exact vehicle and kit, including any required approval, installation inspection, registration and insurance documentation. Indian ARAI or ICAT application records do not establish approval in another country. Request the documents applicable to the proposed export configuration from MIJO.

MIJO does not support the use or installation of a second-hand CNG kit. Choose a new, complete MIJO kit installation with applicable approval documents and written warranty terms.

Is MIJO Tata’s factory CNG supplier, and what about automatic iCNG cars?

MIJO supplies independent aftermarket CNG systems and does not claim to be Tata Motors’ factory CNG supplier or an authorised showroom installer. Factory, dealer-facilitated and independent retrofit arrangements have separate providers, specifications and warranties.

Tata’s Indian Punch iCNG information checked on 5 September 2026 lists manual and AMT choices. Nexon, Altroz, Tiago and Tigor iCNG information also describes factory configurations. These Indian references do not establish availability or MIJO retrofit eligibility in another country; confirm the destination-market variant with Tata Motors and the proposed retrofit with MIJO.

A new factory-CNG purchase and conversion of your existing petrol car are separate purchases. Ex-showroom and on-road vehicle quotations differ; on-road pricing includes location-specific registration, insurance and other charges. Compare current quotations rather than an old price list or PDF, and identify whether a Nexon enquiry concerns an existing petrol car or factory iCNG vehicle.

What about older Tata models, LPG, diesel and commercial vehicles?

For Nano, Xpres or Xpress fleet vehicles, Sierra, Harrier and Safari enquiries, share the existing fuel system and vehicle details with MIJO. These are retained enquiry names; diesel and battery-electric versions are outside this petrol-car conversion route.

LPG requires a separate system, tank, fuel storage, components, application assessment and quotation. CNG prices, km/kg figures and fill estimates do not describe LPG fitment or mileage. Explore Sequential LPG.

Tata CNG trucks, mini trucks, tippers, school vans and goods vehicles have separate capacities, operating requirements and quotations. See Trucks & Buses; for auto-rickshaw enquiries, see Three-Wheelers.
