E85 is the term for motor fuel blends of 85 percent ethanol and just 15 percent gasoline.
Because E85 vehicles are flexible by nature, owning a flexible fuel vehicle is a practical way to enter the world of alternative fuels without any limitations on the vehicle’s range.
Technically speaking, converting a vehicle that was designed to operate on unleaded gasoline only to operate on another form of fuel is a violation of the federal law and the offender may be subject to significant penalties.
Each year in Iowa more than 320 million bushels of corn are processed into ethanol. Soon, Iowa’s ethanol plants will be capable of producing nearly 1 billion gallons per year.
