I used to get about 350km out of mine.
But it was a fuel guzzler, horrible inlet/exhaust design on a Holden Red Motor (push rod straight 6cyl 3.3L).
LPG system was also the poverty model with a constant flow venturi vapour ring design.
Vera's system looks to be a thoroughly more modern vapour injection system. Far more efficient and necessary on variable inlet multi-valve heads.
Still inefficient compared to petrol, and probably a noticeable power loss, but all in all not a bad compromise when looking at cost per mile (LPG runs about 55c-60c/L here, compared to $1.25-1.40/L for petrol ($1.40-1.65/L for 98RON)).
The only thing better than that is a liquid injection system, which are very expensive.
