Flex

The license plates here are sealed. It goes with the car as long as it lasts.















Our car does not have 'Flex'. It has a regular gasoline engine. But we find a 'Turbo' buttom. You notice the green switch says AC. When the green goes away, our car is in turbo mode. Haha!


The buses of the few cities I visited use biodiesel as fuel.

























There are five different kinds of fuels available at gas stations.




The prices hasn't changed much the past five or six years I visited Brazil. They are slightly higher, about 10%!










This Shell station is very clean!


Flex has been available in cars here for quite a few years.

The Flex engines can accomodate either gasoline or alcohol.

As you can see, alcohol is cheaper therefore more economical.,
Next week, we will go to Sao Paulo for its Auto Show. Will tell you about it after Nov. 3rd.
