WoW Pathfinder has changed so much we had a 1990s model in office and it was great travelling in it from Islamabad-Multan and then I drove it from Talagang to Islamabad.

My all time favorite hybrid car was GS 430H. It was very fast 0-60 mph was only 4 seconds

Can a Pakistani car run on E85 though? I read online that it eats all the rubber etc. but I am still curious !

toofast (Ali) 2013-06-15 00:38:04 +0500 #88

Yes it did had a waiting time. In my view it is glorified Prius.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2013-06-15 00:40:00 +0500 #89

may be.. but its a lot of glorified.

Why you even want to try it?I bet you can but its bad for you car . Always use 100% patrol.

The BMW concept Active Tourer Plug In Hybrid concept @ NY Auto. Will be available on market soon. This car's hybrid system generates a total of 190 horsepower and can accelerate from 0-62 mph in under eight seconds.BMW also estimates that it can drive up to 20 miles in electric mode, and the system will achieve almost 95 mpg. The hatchback design plug-in is powered by a 1.5-liter, transversely mounted 3-cylinder gas engine paired with an electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack.

I think there is a something different on these engines. Not an expert on this.

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2013-06-15 00:44:55 +0500 #93

I think A4 is also a glorified Jetta. (H)

My friend was selling his 1990 model bike for like 5,000 rupees, might try it on that lol.

Safe investment yeah i believe that a few alterations must be done to the engine and other things to run it, but if it turns out to be more than 50% cheaper than regular petrol, then it is worth all the hard work

Brazil has a lot of cars than can run on Petrol& Ethanol, must be cheap as f... i guess :d

toofast (Ali) 2013-06-15 00:57:13 +0500 #95

Yes only flexfuel cars should be driven on E85. One can still run E85 in regular cars but there is no guarantee how long engine will last

fazalwahab11375 (fazalwahab11375) 2013-06-15 00:58:33 +0500 #96

But where is ethanol? Here on gas station its available.

toofast (Ali) 2013-06-15 01:07:42 +0500 #97

Yes definitely and A3 is golf. In my jetta i see Audi logo all over.

faiz.aslam.121 (Faiz Aslam) 2013-06-15 01:55:12 +0500 #98

Ahh yeah the Ethanol... will try to get it made from someone who knows his science

There are a few guides online too, but I don't really feel safe around all this flammable stuff :S
