The quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with petrol bio fuels of type E5 (containing 5 % ethanol), complying with Eu ropean
standard EN 228.
Fuels of type E85 (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserve d exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of
fuel (BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15376.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to operate with f uels containing up to 100 % ethanol (type E100).
