What the study actually shows (having read it) is that a flex fuel Chevy Impala got better mileage on a blend than it did on straight gasoline. It also got worse mileage on gasoline than a regular Impala when both used straight gasoline.
Conclusion: A higher blend MAY in some flex fuel vehicles give you a higher mileage. In a regular vehicle any blend will lower mileage.
Don't get too excited yet, folks.
