E20 fuel, a blend of 20% ethanol and 80% petrol, has been introduced in India. The government has confirmed that some BS-III vehicles may require replacement of rubber parts due to E20 fuel, while BS-VI vehicles remain unaffected. Extensive studies and field trials have found no major impact on overall vehicle performance, drivability, or engine durability. However, there may be a slight reduction in fuel economy for older vehicles.
