It is also flex so that future biomass fuels such as cellulosic ethanol, methanol can be used (no oil). Also maintenance on these (no oil changes to speak of) etc will cost much less than an internal combution propelled car. Those cars will reduce oil demand at most by about 1/5th of one percent. — Volt Enthusiast 7.
