India’s E20 - Ethanol gamble explained | Let Me Explain 148 | Pooja Prasanna

Описание: India's push towards E20 petrol has sparked a nationwide debate.
The Union government says ethanol-blended petrol reduces crude oil imports, cuts emissions and benefits farmers. Critics, however, have raised concerns about lower mileage, older vehicles, fuel pricing, and the lack of transparency around a key Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) report.

So what does the evidence actually say?
In this episode of Let Me Explain, Pooja Prasanna examines the science behind ethanol blending, what the government's own reports recommend, why E20 has become the default fuel in many places, and why questions about consumer choice, pricing, and transparency continue to persist.
