C Correct answer
Explanation

Vehicles and automobiles "running on" eco-friendly fuels is the correct phrase. "Running on" describes how a vehicle operates using a particular fuel source. "Converted on" and "relying on" are grammatically incorrect. "Burning on" is not idiomatic - we say vehicles run on fuel, not burn on fuel.
