Sales of 100-octane ethanol-free premium petrol have more than doubled recently amid E20 fuel fears, led by Delhi. Users worry about vehicle damage and 3-5% lower mileage from ethanol blends.

The fuel costs ~57% more than regular petrol (₹160 in Delhi, ₹167.35 in Mumbai), sells at <1% of stations, and targets high-performance vehicles. The government plans no revival of E0/E10 and expects demand to ease once E20 concerns subside. #Automobile

Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari informed Rajya Sabha that BS-III vehicles made between 2005-2016 may need some rubber parts and gaskets replaced when using E20 petrol, but studies by IOCL, ARAI and others show no major impact on overall vehicle performance.

In March Nitin Gadkari said in Parliament that “if anyone can show even a single vehicle that has been damaged by E20 fuel, then bring it forward.”
