Which are the alternative fuels for cars that could replace gasoline in vehicle? Biodiesel is a renewable source of energy produced from veritable oil, animal fat, etc. Methanol can be used in internal combustion engines either directly or as a blend with gasoline. You can guess it easily. The answer is petroleum fuels.
