Repsol S A : , Toyota, BMW and Bosch launch real-world pilot of vehicles running on 100% renewable gasoline

About this update from Repsol Sa

Repsol, in collaboration with Toyota Motor Europe (TME), BMW Group, and Bosch, today announced the launch of a pioneering six-month pilot project in Spain. The pilot, which started in early July, will demonstrate the real-world potential of vehicles running exclusively on renewable fuels. The initiative will deploy a fleet of around 20 Toyota and BMW vehicles, powered by Repsol's 100% renewable gasoline (Nexa 95), and supported by Bosch's advanced digital fuel tracking technology. This pilot aims to provide tangible, real-world evidence that vehicles exclusively running on renewable fuels can be effectively deployed at scale, supporting Europe's transition to decarbonise mobility through a complementary, technology-neutral approach while leaving no one behind. "Technology openness is a key pillar of the BMW Group strategy - at the same time our goal is always to have more environmentally friendly and efficient vehicles on the road. Our BMW and MINI vehicles as a part of this future oriented pilot, will help to gain valuable data helping us to offer our global customer the best and most efficient powertrain also in the future", says Stefan Heller, Head of Development of the VEEF programme at BMW Group . The pilot will focus on three key objectives: Availability of renewable gasoline in the market - leveraging Repsol's infrastructure, currently the only provider of 100% renewable gasoline at public fuel stations in Spain. Readiness of digital tracking and certification technologies - enabled by Bosch's "Digital Fuel Twin" system, which certifies renewable fuel usage across the full lifecycle. Operational deployment of VEEF fleets - demonstrating that existing vehicles can run today on 100% renewable fuels using existing infrastructure. Bosch's system will collect and validate refuelling data from multiple sources, including vehicle data, fuel stations and fuel card transactions, ensuring robust, transparent tracking of renewable fuel usage. "With our 'Digital Fuel Twin,' Bosch is bringing full digital transparency to the entire fuel value chain to reliably track and verify the renewable fuels from the moment they enter the market right down to the end consumer. By precisely monitoring fuel usage on individual vehicles in real-time, we are building the foundation of trust and regulatory compliance needed for higher acceptance of renewable fuels in the mobility and transport sector", says Dr Marko Babic, Head of Product Area at Bosch- in charge of the Digital Fuel Twin .
