Existing E85 Stations

For individual drivers and fleets without their own centralized fueling facility, existing E85 (85% ethanol, 15% gasoline) stations often can satisfy flexible fuel vehicle (FFV) fueling needs. See E85 Fueling Station Locations to find stations nationwide.

If there are not enough E85 fueling stations in the area, FFV users can encourage retail service stations to carry the fuel by communicating the potential demand for E85. Service stations enjoy guaranteed fleet business, and many will offer fleet or volume discounts. They might also consider adding E85 to their product line if it means keeping a fleet as a customer. Clean Cities coalitions and the Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) can help with convincing stations to carry E85 and might be able to provide financial and consumer education assistance to the stations.
