Part of the confusion over the mileage (Kilometreage???) and ethanol requiring more fuel to run the same amount of distance as gas is that ethanol is blended with gas. You can blend up to 10% ethanol into gas and still be able to run vehicles. After 10% you need to start using converters. The flex vehicles using either gas or higher ethanol blends or the vehicles that run on E15 (15% blend)do get lower miles per gallon (kilometres per lire??) than straight gas. In the US there is a huge price difference between the higher blends of ethanol and the conventional gas or 10% gas/ethanol blends to make up for the difference in the fuel consumption.
