Fiat Likely To Invest E10 Million On Ethanol Engines
RedOrbit:
Fiat Powertrain Technologies is planning to invest about E10 million in developing an ethanol-powered engine to be used in trucks and agricultural machinery in Brazil, Reuters has reported quoting Franco Ciranni, the company’s regional manager.
The company expects to launch the engine by 2010. Experts say that the engine will not face any danger from mixing fuels as a small amount of diesel will be mixed with ethanol only after injecting them into the combustion chamber from separate tanks.
The news agency has quoted Mr Ciranni as saying: “With ethanol, safety is required. We want a totally secure project.”
Fiat will test the engine in the factory vehicles and machinery developed by its partners.
