Very very few LNG cars and trucks out there, as filling infrastructure is limited compared to CNG. In US it's something like 2% of total CNG+LNG fleet.

Interviewed with a midwestern company doing CNG truck conversions and building fueling infrastructure back in 2014/15. Diesel prices coming down crushed them, and they sold off the majority of their fueling station biz in 2019, to focus on renewable CNG from dairy & hog farms.

I was confusing it with LPG. The huge majority of buses and taxis around here run on it, which is a big percentage of traffic on the road. A decade ago it was 100%, now most new replacements are electric but it will take at least another decade until the existing LPG fleets are entirely replaced.
