Stellantis is testing 28 engine families for their compatibility with synthetic fuels - claiming a 90% reduction in CO2 emissions
The sourcing of the carbon, be it atmospheric capture or the gasification of biomass, is claimed to offset the CO2 emitted when the fuel is burned, therefore making it carbon-neutral .
Because synthetic fuels are chemically identical to fossil fuels, they can theoretically replace them without modification.petrol and diesel engines produced between 2014 and 2019, testing tailpipe emissions, engine power, reliability and impacts on the tank, filters and lines, among other variables.
The use of e-fuels in Stellantis vehicles has the potential to remove 400 million tonnes of CO2 emissions in Europe between 2025 and 2050, the company said. For reference, the UK emitted 331 million tonnes of CO2 in 2022 alone, according to provisional figures from the government.It's the latest manufacturer to announce a significant investment into synthetic fuels following the EU’s announcement that it would allow ICE vehicles to remain on sale after 2035 as long as they use only sustainable carbon-neutral fuels.
Porsche has been the most vocal proponent of e-fuels specifically. It began e-fuel production in Chile late last year with partner Highly Innovative Fuels for its Mobil 1 Supercup race series and customer-facing Experience Centres.
