ST. LOUIS (AP) - Enterprise Rent-A-Car is designating branches where a percentage of its rental vehicles can run on E-85, a renewable fuel made up of 85% ethanol. St. Louis-based Enterprise hopes the move will encourage the use of alternative fuels and technology. Customers can also use traditional gasoline in the flexibile fuel cars. Enterprise launched a FlexFuel branch in the suburb of Kirkwood today, where 25% of its vehicles can run on E-85. The business has opened similar branches in Washington, Cincinnati, Columbus, and Dayton, Ohio in recent months.
