Bentley Developing Bioethanol Lineup
Scheduled for the next Geneva Motor Show next spring is Bentley's bioethanol-powered versions of its large engine models. Currently in development, the luxury carmaker plans to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions from its lineup by forty percent within three years.
Why the rush? Well currently, its fleet outputs an average of 400 grams of carbon per kilometer—far from the newly set EU target of 130g/km average by 2015. Though the details have not been finalized, and it is speculated that this limit will only apply to companies that produce 10,000 or more cars annually, smaller companies such as Bentley will still face at least some demand to reduce its greenhouse gas output.
Only time will tell if the bet on ethanol will really shine through. After reports like the one recently released by Stanford University, sticking to ethanol may not be the best choice after all. That said, a Bentley spokesman had mentioned that while the focus now is on bioethanol, it’s only for short term. Biodiesel may become a possibility in the longer run.
Currently, Bentley is also undergoing negotiations with the British royal family over supplying use of these greener vehicles for state use.

What a novel idea! Raise the cost of food so struggling families can't eat! For the benefit of the uber-rich!
Maybe they'll use cellulosic and not corn ethanol.
