Despite the fact that fuel prices remain very high, more and more motorists are trying to switch to less energy-intensive engines. Of course, we mean electric, but the latter is not yet suitable for everyone, in particular due to limitations related to recharging. This is why hybrids are on the rise, as they somehow combine the best of both worlds in one engine. Consumption actually decreases, without drawbacks electric car. But there is also a fuel that is becoming increasingly popular: E85. Superethanol does have many advantages, as it is generally cheaper than gasoline or diesel, but its use also helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, ethanol is produced from plant materials, making it a renewable energy source. Therefore, it has many advantages.

Europe has agreed to end the heat engine by 2035. However, the fuel tax is an important source of revenue for the French state. https://t.co/M17WH4kOC3

Compatible engine

But is it possible to do it? operating a hybrid car with E85 ? The answer is yes. Indeed, and as a general rule, Euro 3 petrol cars equipped with multi-point electronic injection engines since 2000 are E85 compatible. This also applies to petrol hybrid cars. However, this alternative has more than just advantages. Indeed, E85 engines consume more than gasoline engines, and there are fewer service stations that offer them than those that distribute gasoline or diesel. Finally, not all cars can run on ethanol without modifications, as in most cases a special and very expensive gearbox is required. But if you have a compatible hybrid vehicle, you may want to consider running on ethanol. However, be sure to check your vehicle’s compatibility before refueling with E85.
