AvtoVAZ has experience using gasoline with an alcohol content of up to 10%. This fuel composition does not have a significant impact on the reliability and power characteristics of Lada cars.
The company noted that analyzing the impact on the durability of the fuel system with an alcohol content higher than 10% would require additional research.
In November, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law containing a provision under which the excise tax on denatured ethyl alcohol will not be paid in the production of AI-92 gasoline.
State Secretary - Deputy Minister of Finance Alexei Sazanov acknowledged the tense situation in the domestic gasoline market. Therefore, the Cabinet adopted amendments that allow the use of ethyl alcohol in the production of automobile gasoline.
