Saving my Elantra CRDI from Delhi ban: Can I convert it to CNG or an EV

I really don't to part with my car and feel its just unfair to let a good car go like that.

BHPian zen kobane recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Hi all,

I've been stressed about my 2013 Elantra SX auto CRDI turning 10 and I'm in Delhi. Is there any way or supplier that can retro fit convert my diesel car to either EV or CNG?

I really don't want to part ways with my love.

Its just unfair.

Here's what BHPian Shreyans_Jain had to say on the matter:

Sell it off, man. There isn’t much to be done here. Old cars and Delhi NCR just do not go together anymore.

Here's what BHPian reppy had to say on the matter:

Makes no sense absolutely! For the cost of the conversion + the resale value, you can get yourself a nice, new generation car. That's saying even if the conversion is possible, which is unlikely, with the major changes converting it to a non standard spec car.

You never know, your Elantra love story may end with hate and frustration in the end.

Bottom line: not worth it. Say your goodbyes.
