India’s first flex-fuel vehicle has finally launched. Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari Tuesday announced the launch of the Toyota Corolla Altis Hybrid, which is a first-of-its-kind pilot project based on Flexi-Fuel Strong Hybrid Electric Vehicles (FFV-SHEV) technology.
Flex-fuel vehicles can run on flexible fuel, which is a blend of petrol and ethanol, the quantity of which can be as much as 100 percent. With hybrid technology, these vehicles can also make use of a battery to power the engine, not only giving users more than one way to run a car but also reducing carbon emissions.
The core idea behind vehicles that run on flex fuel is to reduce dependency on petrol and diesel. Ethanol is a cleaner alternative to petrol that is abundantly available. At the same time, flex fuel makes for a cheaper alternative to regular fuels, such as petrol.
Flex-fuel vehicles are gaining traction all around the world, as different markets strive to switch to sustainable resources. According to experts and automobile industry players, more flex-fuel vehicles will hit the market from 2024 onwards. While Toyota’s new Corolla Altis Hybrid is India’s pilot project towards assessing whether flex-fuel is feasible for a market like ours, nearly 85 percent of the cars sold in Brazil are reportedly based on flex-fuel. The new Toyota Corolla Altis Flexi-Fuel Strong Hybrid Electric Vehicle (FFV-SHEV) is powered by 1.8-litre ethanol-ready petrol-hybrid engine.
Gadkari said India will promote the use of FFV-SHEV to minimise the dependency on petrol and to contribute to the environment. The government has started production of flex-fuel, designated as E95, E90, and E85, depending on the ratio of petrol to ethanol in the mix.
