Flex Fuel Vehicles: Expanding Your Options
Introduction
With the increasing production of flex fuel vehicles (FFVs), consumers now have more choices than ever. If you're looking to reduce America's reliance on foreign fuel while also contributing positively to the environment, an FFV might be the perfect choice for you.
Benefits of Flex Fuel
Owning a flex fuel vehicle provides alternatives beyond just expensive gasoline. Depending on fuel availability and local taxes, you could save up to one-third at the pump by using E85, a popular ethanol/gasoline blend for FFVs. As more service stations offer flex fuel options, drivers can save money and reduce their environmental impact. However, it's crucial to ensure your vehicle is designed to run on E85.
Manufacturers Leading the Way
Fortunately, several auto manufacturers are offering vehicles that can operate on either E85 or regular gasoline. Let's explore the current options available to American consumers.

Conclusion
The flex fuel movement is gaining momentum. As more stations offer this fuel and more vehicles become available, expect a rise in consumer adoption of FFVs. With benefits such as reduced emissions and decreased dependency on foreign oil, choosing a flex fuel vehicle makes a lot of sense. Will you make the switch to a flex fuel vehicle?
