Who needs a hybrid?

According to a recent report, the entire Bentley Continental range will be equipped with flex-fuel engines in June.

While details are limited, the cars will feature a flex-fuel version of the 6.0-liter W-12 engine. It will be able to run on petrol, E85 bioethanol, or a mix of the two.

When they are launched, over half of Bentley's lineup will be flex-fuel compatible. This is critical to the company's goal of reducing CO2 fleet emissions by 15 percent by 2012.

Look for more information to be released later this year.

They are making all tnese flex fuel cars but where are the stations. It is like putting out hydrogen cars and hydrogen is not readily available. The car companies must get a tax break for suppling these vehicles.
