On the contrary, it is used quite a lot, depending on the country. For example, where I live (Bolivia), more than half of the cars have already been converted to "dual" that is, they can use both gasolene and natural gas. I believe the same happens in many other countries, as well.

It probably depends on the country; and initially, the transition is difficult: It doesn't make sense to convert your car if there aren't any gas stations, and it doesn't make sense to put up gas stations if there are no cars that can use it!
