Why is there E85 fuel but not E100?
E85 fuel is a mixture of ethanol (up to 85%) and gasoline. It is designed primarily for flex-fuel vehicles (FFV) although it is not mandatory FFVs use E85 fuel. A non-FFV will run and drive with E85 but it will experience a loss of power and fuel economy because E85 has less energy-density than regular gasoline.
What’s the difference between E85 and normal pump gas?
