The First DOE E10 Fuel Economy Run, to be held on 27 November, will provide in a comparative study of the fuel economy results of gasoline vehicles running E10 compared to their non-blended results from earlier testing.

The eco run route will be from DOE to Subic and then back to DOE covering a total distance of 312 kilometers (194 miles).

The objective of this event is to advocate the efficient utilization of fuel in the transport sector by applying fuel efficient driving techniques, demonstrate the important role the driver plays in achieving substantial reduction in fuel consumption and maintenance cost, provide information on the fuel economy the fuel economy rating performance of the different brand new vehicles, and make comparative analysis with the data obtained from the previous fuel economy runs.

Participating vehicles are divided into three categories: passenger cars (less than 1.3 L engine displacement, 1.3L-1.5L, 1.6L-1.8L, 2.0L and above); the SUVs; and the APVs/MPVs. All participants will be fueled by Total Premier Unleaded provided by the sponsor Total (Philippines) Corporation.
