It's called ethenyl. It is an highly flammable alcohol that is made from corn, grains, or sugar. It is mixed with gasoline on a 15% gasoline to 85% ethenyl ratio to make E85. All gasolines are at least 10% ethenyl and called E10. Most of today's auto manufactures produce vehicles that are compatible with E85 and E10, called "Flex Fuel" vehicles. In Brazil the gas stations only sell E85 and diesel, so all of their cars have to be made compatible to run with E85.
