The consumption scenarios are technically achievable but do not reflect significant barriers such as cost, regulation, legality, and consumer acceptance. car warranties, cost, food-vs-fuels arguments). Primary technical concerns with using intermediate-level blends of ethanol in the vehicle fleet include: Fuel economy.

Even the most hardcore driving mode still tries to prioritize electric propulsion at low speeds while the adaptive exhaust system is burbling at idle — the engine itself doing nothing. Fuel economy is said to be 29 mpg on the highway and 23 around town. Still, if you want to try and be frugal, the 14.8-kWh

Current Legal Requirement for Use of Anhydrous Ethanol in the United States. In addition to confirming the effectiveness of hydrous ethanol for gasoline blending in actual vehicle trials, these initial tests have shown measurable increases in volumetric fuel economy, indicating higher thermodynamic efficiencies resulting from hydrous ethanol.

Further, all the elements of the exhaust aftertreatment system are now configured directly on the engine itself and no longer on the vehicle. The new OM 654 delivers around 13% lower fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions along with a further increase in output (143 kW instead of 125 kW) compared to its predecessor, the OM 651.
