E10 petrol: Eco-friendly fuel being introduced to filling stations
A new, more eco-friendly petrol called E10 is being introduced to filling stations in the UK.
It's hoped by replacing the current petrol grades in the UK, it will help cut annual emissions by 750,000 tonnes.
Every petrol vehicle built after 2011 should accept E10, and the government has set up a website where drivers can check if their car is compatible with the new fuel.
