China turns to methanol for flex-fuel cars {Autoblog Green}
Nov 10th 2009 8:06PM Methanol has been popular as an automotive fuel since the mid-1970's. Methanol powered flex-fuel vehicles were available for purchase here in the US during the 1990's.
It's also a major ingredient in windshield-washing fluid.
