Ethanol blending improves ride quality, mileage and cuts emission: Centre

E20 fuel offers better acceleration, improved ride quality, and about 30% lower carbon emissions compared to E10. Ethanol’s higher octane number (~108.5 vs petrol’s 84.4) and heat of vaporisation enhance engine performance, particularly in city driving conditions.
