Quality of the fuel used for petrol engines
The petrol engines are perfectly compatible with E5 type petrol biofuels (containing 5 % ethanol), conforming to European
standard EN 228.
E85 type fuels (containing up to 85 % ethanol) are reserved exclusively for vehicles marketed for the use of this type of fuel
(BioFlex vehicles). The quality of the ethanol must comply with European standard EN 15376.
For Brazil only, special vehicles are marketed to run on fuels containing up to 100 % ethanol (type E100).

Quality of the fuel used for Diesel engines


The Diesel engines are perfectly compatible with biofuels which conform to current and future European standards (diesel
fuel which complies with standard EN 590 mixed with a biofuel which complies with standard EN 14214) which can be
distributed at the pumps (possible incorporation of 0 to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of any other type of (bio) fuel (vegetable or animal oils, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the 8
