PERFORMANCE IN ENGINES:

• Reduces your CO2 emissions by up to 90%.
• No modifications to vehicles required.
• Same torque and maximum power as with fossil fuel in modern engines.
• No cold operability issues during (severe) winter weather.
• Low tendency to form deposits in fuel injection system and fuel injectors.
• No engine oil dilution issues or chemical incompatibilities with engine oil.
• Possibility to design more fuel-efficient low-emission diesel engines (“diesel-FFV-vehicles”).
• Supported in Worldwide Fuel Charter published by automotive and engine manufacturers.
• Long lasting (10 year shelf life), which minimises filtration problems.

ENGINE POWER & TORQUE:

• Similar maximum power and acceleration time as with fossil diesel in modern vehicles.

ENGINE OIL DILUTION & DETERIORATION:

• Better engine oil condition due to reasonable distillation range and hydrocarbon type chemistry.
• Higher cetane number decreases oil dilution in cold starts and low load conditions.

HVO fuel consumption is nearly proportional to the volumetric heating value, but in some cases the engine efficiency is slightly improved.

HVO fuel is relatively expensive in comparison to regular diesel however, HVO fuel is more fuel efficient, so it can be argued that you get better value for money than regular diesel. HVO fuel also comes at a fixed cost, rather than fluctuating like regular diesel.

No. HVO fuel is interchangeable with traditional diesel, and is a perfect drop-in replacement.
You will need no modifications or additional infrastructure. HVO fuel is approved by major OEMs:

HVO fuel is produced in a complex refinery process that removes oxygen from the vegetable oil molecules, and splits them into a different chain. HVO fuel is a more stable fuel with a longer shelf life. It also provides superior performance in application and storage over fossil diesel and FAME substitutes.

HVO fuel is a sustainable and 100% renewable fuel. It is created from using waste materials such as used cooking oils, tallow and other waste oils. The HVO fuel supplied by Ford Fuels does not contain any virgin crops (e.g. palm oil), and meets the requirements of EN 15940 for paraffinic diesel fuels.
