According to reporters' records at some gas stations in Hanoi, the majority of people positively welcome the transition to bio-gasoline.
At gas station No. 8 on Nguyen Phong Sac street (Cau Giay, Hanoi), buying and selling activities are still bustling as usual. Consumers are currently allowed to choose lead-free gasoline according to national technical regulations, which are mixed and mixed into E10 or E5 gasoline.
Attached to the technology driver profession for the past 3 years, Mr. Bui Viet Quang (Cau Giay ward, Hanoi) shared his first feelings after using bio-gasoline.
Normally I fill the tank with about 80,000 VND, running from morning until almost noon is finished. Every week I have to fill up with gasoline for 7 days. When switching to E10 gasoline, I see that the cost is cheaper, helping to save and reduce the burden of costs" - Mr. Quang said.
Experiencing for the first time on a day when gas stations across the country simultaneously only sell E10 and E5 gasoline, Mr. Hoang Van Son (Cau Giay ward, Hanoi) expressed his agreement with the policy of conversion.
Today the old gasoline just ran out, so I went to the gas station near my house to fill it up. I see this as a welcome sign because it contributes to environmental protection, and at the same time helps the country be more proactive in fuel sources, reducing dependence on imports" - Mr. Son shared.
Owning an old car, Mr. Son said that he still cannot fully assess the effectiveness of the new fuel. "My car has been used for many years, so I don't know how the new gasoline will operate. However, I am not too worried. If problems arise later, I will have to find a suitable car conversion plan" - Mr. Son said.
According to Mr. Son, in the past time, press agencies and many experts have had analyses and assessments of bio-gasoline before it is widely used, so people should not worry too much.
Also a shuttle driver on fixed routes Hanoi - Hai Phong, Mr. Vu Van Cuong (Hai An ward, Hai Phong) said: "Currently I see the car operating normally, there is no problem. Just like previous fuel conversions, it takes more time to have a more objective assessment. Now it is still mainly each person's own feeling" - Mr. Cuong said.
Besides those who are willing to switch immediately, some people still choose the option of gradually changing to get used to the new fuel, using E5 gasoline for a while before completely switching to E10.
