Although the price of fuel is still very high, some manufacturers have found solutions to attract customers who want to reduce their gas budget but do not want to turn to electricity. As such, Ford offers a range of vehicles running on E85, a fuel known for being significantly cheaper at the gas station but a bit greener. And this despite a slightly higher consumption, about 20% depending on driving habits. If there is an opportunity to transform your car after purchase, Ford offers original compatible models.

The inevitable end

In addition to the Fiesta, the sale of which has already ended, the American manufacturer also offers Puma runs on E85. In fact, it is even its bestseller, while versions equipped with this engine account for 82% of sales at the moment. However, the super ethanol-powered small SUV is said to be out of production soon, Argus reports. But what is the reason? Well, this delisting will happen this year to make way for a facelifted version that will also be available with a 100% electric motor a little later.

Other models

But that’s not all, because the Ford Puma E85 will not be the only one that will soon be removed from the catalog. Indeed, this also applies Focus E85 which will soon have to say goodbye. This obviously continues to worry dealers, although these models are very successful. Only the Kuga E85 will get a bit of a reprieve for now, but that too should be phased out a bit later. At the moment, no release date for the SUV has been officially announced.
