Flexible Fuel Vehicles, FFVs, are capable of running on a blend of so-called E85 (85% bio-ethanol and 15% petrol), petrol only, or any mix of both in one fuel tank. This makes them truly flexible, both in terms of the choice/availability of fuel, in and customer operation.
The use of bio-ethanol, in combination with FFV technology, can lead to a 70 percent reduction in overall carbon dioxide emissions compared to a traditional petrol engine.
