![]() ![]() Responding to our questions, UMW Toyota said its current diesel engines are not rated for B10 use they can only take up to B7. It goes on to say that “the introduction of B10 biodiesel requires further consideration.” Mercedes-Benz Malaysia says its diesel-powered passenger cars, vans and trucks can use up to B7 biodiesel (7% palm-based biodiesel/93% petroleum diesel blend), while Fuso trucks in Malaysia can only take a maximum of B5 biodiesel (5% palm-based biodiesel/95% petroleum diesel blend). UPDATE: Isuzu has released a statement regarding the unsuitability of B10 for its engines. Following BMW Malaysia announcing it found “technical challenges” running its diesel engines on B10 biodiesel (10% palm-based biodiesel/90% petroleum diesel blend, will reportedly be implemented nationwide by October), and that its engines can take up to B7, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia, UMW Toyota and Volkswagen Malaysia have issued responses that echo the same sentiments.
