E10 petrol is compatible with almost all (95%) 1 petrol-powered vehicles on the road today, including all cars built since 2011. If your vehicle or equipment is not compatible with E10 fuel, you will still be able to use E5 by purchasing Shell V-Power grade petrol from most Shell service stations.

All petrol sold is currently E5. 5% ethanol 95% petrol.
E10 is 10% ethanol 90% pertrol.

E10 is Supposed to be more environmentally friendly as its petrol content is reduced from 95% to 90%.

It is nothing but trouble for petrol engines and the car they are in.
But the government is not bothered by that.

Ethanol is produced in mass production units. BP Baglan bay used to process it.The feedstock came from BP Llandarcy which came from Hydrocarbons. There's nothing great about ethanol.

Less efficient than the petrol it’s replacing apparently, so they say expect less mpg as the engine needs to consume more for the same ‘bang’.

So a stealth rise in taxes then, use more petrol, pay more tax? There's always a con in these eco initiatives.

If you drive an old car then by using the "new" rated petrol can have an expensive adverse affect on the rubber fuel lines ( if they're the original )

It would need a lot to meet the demand and we don't have the land, but who knows.

Yes who knows indeed. E10 had been used in France since 2009 and since 2016 has been the standard petrol that all EU manufactured cars have been tested against.

There is no such thing as a product called petrol.. it's a mixture of many components blended together. Gasoline, benzene, distillates, even Butane gas used to go into it, so i guess Ethyl alcohol will be just another one. It will still need to be processed on an industrial scale, so i'm doubting it's green benefits.

The devestation it has caused to forests/jungles and the wild life to grow and make it means that it is anything but "green".
