Dodge® flex-fuel vehicles (FFV) are designed to run on conventional unleaded gasoline or E85 (85% ethanol, 15% gasoline) or any blend of the two. This allows you to take advantage of cleaner-burning E85 alternative fuel wherever it’s available.
The ethanol in E85 is essentially produced from corn. Because alcohol fuels are corrosive, FFV engine and fuel systems are specially designed to accept gasoline/alcohol combinations. The fuel mixture is detected by sensors in the system that in turn signal the engine control unit to adjust the fuel injection rate and spark timing for optimal performance, fuel economy, and emissions.
