In an interesting turn of events, Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari on Wednesday disclosed that Toyota Kirloskar will uncover its first flex fuel-powered vehicle in India soon. Talking at the 2nd Automobile Component Manufacturing Association (ACMA) Annual Session, the Minister quoted that he will personally launch Toyota’s flex fuel vehicle in Delhi on the 28th of September 2022. Although the details of the model and the powertrain are under wraps, several reports doing rounds suggest at the Camry being the first car to receive the new fuel system option.
Flex fuel, the short form for flexible fuel is a term which is used to describe a fuel made from the combination of petrol with ethanol or methanol. This new fuel is a more environment friendly alternative to the regular ICE options currently available and more often cost-efficient. The ethanol mix in petrol is produced from natural sources like sugarcane and corn, thereby making it a more sustainable source of fuel.
Flex Fuel engines come equipped with modified internal components like the fuel pump, ignition timing, ECU and injectors to accept and run on more than one source of fuel. These engines can support up to 85% of ethanol mix in the fuel.
