Ho Chi Minh City residents still consider E10 gasoline despite low prices
According to Lao Dong on July 31, 36 stores of the Vietnam National Petroleum Group (Petrolimex) in Ho Chi Minh City (before the merger) had tested the sale of E10 gasoline. This is a fuel that contains 10% of ethanol, which is expected to contribute to reducing environmental pollution and gradually replacing traditional fuels.
However, actual records show that people are still not very interested in this new type of gasoline. Many customers do not know and should be cautious when being introduced. I am still used to using RON 95 gasoline, now that I heard about E10, it is not clear whether it will affect the car or not. If I don't understand clearly, I don't dare to try it" - Ms. Binh Giang, living in Saigon Ward shared.
