GM Providing E85 SUVs
Light & Medium Truck, Apr 2005
General Motors said it will provide alternative-fuel Chevrolet Avalanche sport utility vehicles for use in 28 states that are members of the Governors' Ethanol Coalition (GEC), a bipartisan group of governors devoted to the promotion and increased use of ethanol.
The E85 fuel, a blend of 85 percent ethyl alcohol and 15 percent gasoline, is produced from the starch in agricultural products, primarily domestically produced corn.
The company said it began delivering the vehicles in March. GM said it is the largest producer of E85 flexible fuel vehicles in the United States, with more than 1.1 million vehicles on the road and with vehicles available for sale in all 50 states.
