E10 PETROL: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW A more eco-friendly petrol is due to be introduced to filling stations in the UK later this year
The government intends to make E10 the new standard petrol grade
The change will come in over the summer, the
Department for Transport (DfT) says - not all cars will be able to run on it
What is E10 petrol? It’s a motor fuel that contains less carbon and more ethanol than fuels currently on sale
Ethanol is a kind of alcohol manufactured from plants, including sugar beet and wheat
It is possible to run cars on pure ethanol, as has been done in
Brazil for many years
But in the UK and other European countries, it is normally blended with fuel derived from oil
Current petrol grades in the UK - known as E5 - contain up to 5% ethanol, with the other 95% being regular unleaded petrol
Their replacement, E10, will see this percentage increased to 10% - a proportion that would bring the UK in line with countries such as Belgium, Finland, France and Germany
How can I be sure I’m OK to use E10? The government has set up a website where drivers can check whether their car will run on E10 fuel
But it warns it will not be liable for any damage to vehicles as a result of drivers using its checker - especially if their car has been fitted with replacement parts
The website features a drop-down menu listing all manufacturers whose cars are sold in the UK, with details of all the models not approved to take the new fuel
