Truck drivers feel the benefits of B50, engines more powerful

The launch of the B50 Biodiesel Mandatory policy by President Prabowo Subianto is being felt by truck drivers, who are experiencing better fuel quality compared to regular diesel. Aldi, a truck driver refuelling with B50 biodiesel at a petrol station at Km 57, Karawang Regency, West Java, admitted he noticed a change in his vehicle’s performance after using B50. He said the engine felt more powerful with a lighter pull. “There’s power, it pulls quite nicely. Thank you to Mr Prabowo for creating this B50. We drivers are helped by the existence of this B50 fuel,” said Aldi. Aldi mentioned that vehicles filled with B50 fuel deliver a different driving sensation. He described it as being like using high-quality fuel. “For the vehicle, it’s good, comfortable, the pull is also nice, it feels like filling up with Dexlite,” he said. According to Aldi, the presence of B50 makes it easier for drivers to obtain diesel, thus helping their daily activities. Aldi shared his experience of refuelling with B50 at the petrol station, which was comfortable and without long queues. He is also proud that Indonesia is now able to produce its own fuel made from palm oil. “Be proud that we can produce our own fuel. So now diesel isn’t hard to get because this B50 helps,” he said again. Aldi expressed his appreciation to President Prabowo Subianto and Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Bahlil Lahadalia for the launch of B50, which he believes brings real benefits to drivers. “Thank you to Mr Prabowo and Mr Bahlil for creating this B50 from palm oil fuel. Drivers are greatly helped by the existence of this B50,” Aldi added.
