With 9 E85 stations, Saint Paul ranks among the best cities in Minnesota to own a flex-fuel vehicle. The highway network — I-94, I-35E, I-494 in particular — keeps stations accessible to both commuters and through-travelers. Holiday Stationstores operates the bulk of the city's E85 retail, and Minnesota leads the Midwest in E85 stations per capita and requires state-fleet FFVs to use E85 whenever it's reasonably available.
Finding E85 in Saint Paul
Saint Paul is the Minnesota state capital, and the Department of Administration and state-agency fleets operate under the E85 executive orders. Minnesota was the first U.S. state to mandate gasoline contain at least 10% ethanol (1997, Minn. Stat. 239.791) — a policy lineage that seeded today's statewide E85 density. Holiday, Bobby & Steve's, Minnoco, Kwik Trip, and Cenex operate pumps across the metro off I-94, I-35E, and I-494.
