Fuel blending beyond E20 only via flex-fuel vehicles, says Tarun Kapoor
India is pushing ahead with cleaner fuel blending. Tarun Kapoor said E20 gets full support, and beyond E20 will only run in flex-fuel vehicles. He explained that E20's small loss in efficiency gets offset by its higher octane value. So if you are buying a vehicle or supplying fuel, compatibility with E20 and future blends will shape what comes next.
Key Statutory Highlights
- Fuel blending beyond E20 will happen only through flex-fuel vehicles, according to Tarun Kapoor.
- He said E20 works well.
- He said the marginal decline in efficiency is compensated by a higher octane value.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:Vehicle buyers and fuel suppliers should watch the government's blending roadmap and check whether vehicles are E20-compatible or flex-fuel ready before deciding.
