Following its successful Initial Public Offering (IPO) in November that solidified the automaker’s rebirth, GM is set to increase its investment into greener vehicles to drive America forward.

Last month, the company finalized plans to extend its line of Chevy Express and GMC Savanna full-sized vans to include LPG and CNG-powered options.

“We recognize the value in providing our fleet and commercial customers with a range of fuel saving and alternative fuel technologies,” said Joyce Mattman, director of commercial product and specialty vehicles, GM Fleet and Commercial Operations.

An important development for fleets interested in a propane Autogas solution, GM’s investment into the technology puts the company back into the class of automotive trendsetters once again.

“The CNG and LPG additions are part of GM’s expanding alternative fuel portfolio,” said Mattman of the new additions.

It seems that market forces are finally catching up to the available technology that uses more efficient fuels.

Mattman agrees, commenting that “this is an exciting new territory to be working in because today’s technology is allowing us to provide our customers with more services than ever before.”

The models are expected to be available starting in 2011.
