The launch of flex fuel vehicles in the country is currently stuck. Due to lack of coordination between automobile companies and oil companies regarding preparations and responsibilities, this plan is not moving forward.
Auto companies say that to bring flex fuel vehicles into the market, it is necessary to have suitable fuel available first. They argue that unless there is adequate and standardized supply of flex fuel across the country, it is not practical to launch these vehicles on a large scale.
On the other hand, oil companies say that first auto companies should start production and launch of flex fuel vehicles so that the demand can be clear. He believes that the fuel supply network can be developed rapidly only when vehicles are available in the market.
What is flex fuel technology?
Flex fuel vehicles are those that can run on petrol as well as alternative fuels like ethanol. Its objective is to reduce dependence on traditional fuels and reduce environmental pollution. The government has also been working towards promoting alternative fuels for a long time, so that dependence on crude oil imports can be reduced.
where is the problem coming from
According to experts, the biggest challenge in this entire matter is supply chain and infrastructure. On one hand, vehicle manufacturing companies are ready, but fuel availability is limited. On the other hand, oil companies are avoiding big investments without demand.
