A storage unit for compressed natural gas cylinders for mounting on the rooftop of flat roofed vehicles, is designed for safety, reduced drag and lightweight. CNG cylinders are protected against impact and rollover by a cage made of rollover bars. The assembly is covered with a cowling aerodynamically designed to reduce drag on the vehicle. The design also facilitates fitment on vans and minivans of different makes and models by having (a) Adjustable flap and slat (on the trailing and leading edges of the cowling respectively), which could be rotated about horizontal axes, wherein flap and slat are aerodynamic devices on the leading and trailing edges of the body, respectively, to prevent flow separation around an aerodynamic object by suitably directing the flow of air around it. (b) Middle portion of the cowl, which could be adjusted for length and position on fixed tracks.
