Petroleum has more energy per litre, also alcohol is harder to cold start. Alcohol is hard to store and distribute too. It's corrosive, that's why the drinkable alcohol uses glass bottle. People aren't totally dumb, and the world doesn't revolve on the continent of America. If alcohol is better as car fuel, we would have used it already.

@daniel-wu it is in brazil
in USA seems the corn lobby wanted to be the defacto alcohol fuel, and they had banned import of brazilian sugar cane. obviously corn is not the best for making alcohol (and all of it is grown with glyphosate in USA...) lol
true on the corrosive part. I don't know the other stuff I don't even have a driver's license at 34 lol

excuse me why are we fighting in the middle east
originally combustion engines used distilled alcohol farmers made in their backyards... which you can make from anything that has a sugar in it
it was more efficient than gasoline
but gasoline "had won" because they undercut the price of alcohol, gasoline lobbying the government to put a tax on alcohol and the whole prohibition thing
why are we even doing green scam. alcohol making has absolutely nothing environmentally harmful on it lol. those windmills and solar panels rot and leech chemicals into the environment, and those lithium batteries are a crazy explosion and toxic cloud hazard
humans, why.
now everyone is bitching about gasoline prices and itching to uselessly go to a war instead of Canada bothering to drill up oil under our territory that could power the world's energy consumption for the next 200 years and that's just the deposits we know about and assume are finite...
I hate humans
the green scam people say ohnooo so much food is wasted at the grocery store, we must use AI to improve the logistics and never make more than the necessary food because waste is so ungreen. ok you could make it into alcohol which is a more efficient gasoline. and no need to lug an extra ton of battery weight underneath every vehicle that now has an explosion radius of 30 meters lmao
it's like we wanna die
