Study: No significant difference in fuel consumption between E10 and E5
Source : greencarcongress.com
A study conducted by VTT Technical Research Center of Finland indicates that there is practically no difference between commercial gasoline grades 95E10 and 98E5 sold in Finland as regards fuel consumption in normal driving. The finding is based on driving tests conducted by VTT using six used cars of different make under laboratory conditions. VTT noted that it has been frequently claimed in public that fuel consumption is significantly higher with 95E10 than with its predecessor 95E or the 98E5 currently on the market. The suspected higher consumption has deterred drivers of cars whose manufacturers recommend E10 from actually using it. "The point of this study was to highlight how fuel consumption should actually be measured to give comparable results. Measuring fuel consumption very accurately is not as simple as it seems, because other factors affect consumption besides the fuel itself. In laboratory conditions, we can eliminate these other factors", said Juhani Laurikko, a Principal Scientist at VTT.
