A new episode of the Minnesota Corn Podcast highlights a study by the Renewable Fuels Association showing the benefits of a plug-in hybrid flex fuel vehicle over fully electric vehicles.
In the episode, called “Flex fuel plug-in hybrids have advantages over full EVs,” RFA’s Senior Vice President, Industry Relations & Market Development, Robert White explains that RFA outfitted a 2022 Ford Escape plug-in hybrid electric vehicle with a kit that allowed it to run on flex fuels like E85. RFA conducted rigorous emissions testing and a lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions analysis on the vehicle and put over 34,000 miles of real-world driving on it.
