Just in, response from BP ...
Thank you for your email concerning the fuel sold by BP.
In most regions of the UK our Ultimate Unleaded dos not contain any Ethanol at present (South West UK excluded). This may of course change in the future as the specification allows up to 5%.
Our Regular grade gasoline does contain up to 5% bio ethanol in compliance with EN228 gasoline specification allowance in most regions of the UK.
All BP fuels, regular and BP Ultimate, contain additives which have cleaning and protection properties for the engine. BP Ultimate has been rigorously tested on a wide range of vehicles, covering thousands of miles, in various conditions. Its advanced formula offers a wide range of benefits including better fuel efficiency, more power, better responsiveness, and lower exhaust emissions, all of which gives long term benefit and value to the consumer and their vehicle.
BP does not supply Bio Ethanol as a fuel.
Thank you for taking the time to bring the matter to our attention and for allowing us the opportunity to respond to your concerns at this time.
Kind regards,
Retail Customer Care Team
