Filling up and consumption of eFlexFuel vehicle
eFlexFuel enables using both regular gasoline and ethanol (E85)or any mix of the two in the vehicle. We highly recommend using fuel
with as high ethanol content as possible (E85) but if it is not available the vehicle will still work perfectly on regular gasoline as well.
When E85 is used the consumption of the vehicle compared to regular gasoline is increased by approx. 25% depending on the vehicle.
Please do note that the onboard computer of the vehicle does not recognize this change.
eFlexFuel App
eFlexFuel App is an additional feature that is not required for using eFlexFuel. It enables monitoring in real time engine and fuel data.
User can for example view the ethanol content of the fuel or the injector duty cycle. eFlexFuel App can be downloaded for free from
Google Play store or from iOS App Store.
