Testing the Ford Escape Hybrid on E85

Posted by admin  Published in Flex-Fuel, Ethanol, Hybrids, Ford

From Domestic Fuel, we hear that VeraSun is currently examining Ford’s Hybrid Escape using E85. The two-year pop quiz is meant to “demonstrate the benefit of converging flexible fuel and hybrid technologies.” For some folks, that combination of hybrid efficiency with farmer-friendly corn ethanol is just the thing for an SUV like the Escape. And ethanol-producer VeraSun likes that getting the biofuel into a hybrid is good for commerce

and, in some ways, the environment. VeraSun will additionally open a new plant in Charles City, Iowa that Friday, where Sen. Barack Obama will be giving the keynote address.
