General Motors Wants More U.S. Ethanol Stations

KISSIMMEE, Fla. – General Motors Co. is asking for more U.S. ethanol stations to help fuel its growing fleet of hybrid vehicles, Reuters reports. The car maker is producing more vehicles able to run on ethanol-gasoline blends.

Tom Stevens, GM vice chairman for global product operations, pointed out that more ethanol stations in America will help slash emissions output and lower U.S. reliance on foreign oil. By the 2012 model year, half of all GM vehicles will have the ability to perform on E85 (15 percent gasoline and 85 percent ethanol).
