FFVs are specifically designed to run on E85. They can also run on regular unleaded gasoline or any combination of gasoline and ethanol up to 85%. Flexible Fuel Vehicles look and drive just like regular gasoline-only vehicles, but have been built with special components that are compatible with E85. FFVs have an engine control computer that recognizes the mixture of fuel so the ignition timing and fuel flow rate can be optimized for the fuel mixture being used.
