My car runs on LPG. Do you have an LPG pump?
'GPL' is spelled out: 'JI-PI-EL-le'. It stands for Gas di Petrolio Liquefatto.
Ask at any petrol station when your vehicle uses LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), which not all Italian stations supply.
'Va a GPL' follows the same construction as 'va a benzina'. 'GPL' is the Italian abbreviation for LPG. Italy has the highest number of GPL vehicles in Europe and a good (though not universal) network of GPL pumps.

Italy has over 3,500 LPG filling stations — the highest in Europe. LPG cars are popular because of lower running costs and lower road tax ('bollo auto'). However, LPG vehicles are banned from some Italian underground car parks.
