Ethanol-blended petrol and car insurance: What you need to know

Using ethanol-blended petrol, like E20, in India does not affect your car insurance.

Experts say that as long as you use government-approved fuel, your insurance remains valid.

However, insurance does not cover gradual engine damage from using incompatible fuel.

It only covers sudden, accidental damage.

So, if your car's engine gets damaged over time from using E20, your insurance might not pay for the repairs.

But if there's an accident, your insurance will still cover the damage.

It's important to know what your insurance covers and what it doesn't.
