Indian car manufacturers look at E10, E20 and M3 but later than government wants it

In India, the Press Trust of India reports that the country’s automobile manufacturers association is calling for E10 and 3% methanol blending (M3) by 2025 not only for passenger vehicles but also for two-wheeled vehicles. In a white paper it released recently, the Society for Indian Automobile Manufacturers said that it could work to develop E20 compatible vehicles by 2030. The government has been calling for 22.5% ethanol blending by 2022 with a heavy reliance on cellulosic-based technologies.
