A manufacturer developed a flexible-fuel vehicle (FFV), which runs 25 mpg on gasoline and 15 mpg on ethanol. Does it meet the CAFE fuel efficiency obligation of a minimum 27.5 mpg? CAFE fuel efficiency for FFV is calculated based on the assumption of 50% mileage on gasoline and 50% on ethanol, and 1 gal ethanol is equivalent to 0.15 gal gasoline.
