The majority of cars on the roads today will be able to switch to the new petrol quality without any problems. For example, all BMW cars regardless of model year can run on E10, all Saab models from model year 1979, and all Volvo models from model year 1976 except Volvo S40/V40 with Mitsubishi's GDI engine of 1.8 liters produced from the mid-1990s until the summer of 2003. Cars who can not run on E10 fuel is referred to the 98-octane petrol which will remain in place (how long is however unclear). 98-octane gasoline will continue to contain five per cent ethanol.

If you want to know if your car can handle E10 or not, we refer you to your car manufacturer.
