hybrids that run on ethanol

Created June 23, 2006, at 10:56 am by Anonymous

Why don't they make hybrids flex-fuel so they can run on gasoline or ethanol? Just wondering. I don't actually own a hybrid but I've been considering it.

Apparently it has something to do with the different vapour pressures between gasoline and ethanol and what happens when the vehicle shuts off.

I can't remember exactly what the details are, but I know it's something like that. Hopefully someone else can help out.

Ford is developing a Flex Fuel (E-85) Escape Hybrid, but that is all that I know of.
