Fuel efficiency can drop by 2-5% due to E20 petrol: Car experts

Automotive experts suggest that using 20% ethanol-blended petrol (E20) may reduce fuel efficiency in vehicles by 2-5%, varying with car type. While the Oil Ministry downplays drastic reductions, older, non-E20 compliant vehicles could face long-term erosion of fuel system components. The government promotes E20 to cut emissions and boost farmer income, with compliant vehicles experiencing minimal impact.
