Simultaneously, the “Hybrid-LPG Vehicle Information Management System” and an on-line updating website were established and tested. 9,249 sets of application data from 39 LPG stations were gathered. The data almost concentrated in the north of Taoyuan, Taichung City and the south of Chiayi. The subsidy applications were classified by the vehicle age, and the highest rate was those manufactured in 2009, which is about 40% of the total applications. However, if it was classified by the manufacturer, the highest was TOYOTA. Further, 71 engine tribes and 180 vehicle models were inspected for the emission authentication.
