    Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil.

    One of the DIESEL sellers in my area has stated selling Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO). Same price as Mineral Diesel.
    Has anyone experince of using HVO?

    I may be missing something here but why risk changing, if it’s the same price?

    Unless it’s a “green” option?

    Not sure driving a Discovery would ever be regarded as contributing to saving the planet. Very Happy

    Lots of truck fleets switching to using HVO, and most latest gen truck OEMs have HVO-compatible engines, but I've not heard previously of people using it in cars. And normally, HVO is a premium over regular diesel. Fleets buy it to reduce CO2 emissions, without needing to go to other alternatives. It's also a drop-in fuel, so if you can't get it, you just go back to diesel again.
