TANGERANG, KOMPAS.com – The All New Honda CR-V Turbo and Hybrid have been marketed at the Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) 2023. Honda’s newest sport utility vehicle (SUV) is claimed to be safe for consuming bioethanol fuel.
For information, PT Pertamina (Persero) has marketed a new type of fuel, namely Pertamax Green 95. This fuel is a mixture of Pertamax which has RON 92 with 5 percent ethanol or also called E5.

“Both petrol (1.5 L) or hybrid (2.0 L) cars, from E0 to E22, can accept it. So, of course the E5 can,” said Hanafusa, when met at the Honda booth, Friday (13/8/2023).
