More than 70 % of top selling cars approved for E15 in 2014

More than 70 % of the Top 20 best-selling cars as identified by Edmunds / AOL Auto have been explicitly approved by automakers to use E15 (gasoline containing 15 % ethanol) in 2014 models, writes ethanolproducer.com, 31 October 2013.

This includes all Ford, GM and Volkswagen 2014 models and certain models of Honda, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar and Land Rover.

“Day by day, it seems that Big Oil’s excuses for refusing to offer consumers choice at the pump are falling by the curbside. The fact that more than 70 % of the best-selling cars are approved in 2014 for E15 tells us that there is a fuel market thirsty for a less expensive, higher octane, more environmentally friendly alternative.

In addition to the growing collection of owner’s manuals recommending E15, add the recent National Renewable Energy Laboratory report that reviewed 43 auto engine studies and found no data to support Big Oil’s scary fictional tales of engine failure on E15,” says Bob Dinneen, president and CEO of the Renewable Fuels Association, commented to ethanolproducer.com.
