What it is- Biofuels: Discover how biofuels can help change our landscape for the better. E85 ethanol, a blend of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline, is a mostly renewable fuel that can be made from biodegradable wastes and several plants, such as switchgrass, willow, and corn.
In the U.S., there are already over 7 million E85-capable vehicles on the road. GM is the leader in E85 FlexFuel vehicles, with over 3.5 million FlexFuel vehicles on the road in the U.S. We are well on the way to meeting our goal of having half of annual vehicle production be E85 or biodiesel capable by 2012.
Where it is- Because GM FlexFuel vehicles can run on E85 ethanol or gasoline, you can choose the fuel that's best for you at over 1,900 E85 ethanol pumps nationwide. That number will only continue to grow with GM joining the SmartWay Grow & Go program with the goal of expanding the alternative fueling infrastructure and promoting the benefits of E85.
GM is also partnering with the government, and fuel providers and retailers, to help you choose E85 ethanol sooner.
