Three Thorntons locations will be hosting educational sessions discussing the Unleaded15 fueling option.
Following the recent launch of the company’s E15 branded fuel option, Thorntons will soon be offering three educational opportunities surrounding Unleaded15 to guests in the Chicagoland area.
The Thorntons’ branded E15 fuel option typically offers lower cost, improved engine performance and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Ambassadors will be on site Monday through Thursday from 7 a.m.-10 a.m. and 3 p.m.- 6 p.m. (CDT) to provide Unleaded15 educational materials and to answer any questions related to this renewable fuel. These ambassadors will be at the following Thorntons locations:
- Monday, July 18: 9138 Cicero Ave., Oak Lawn, Ill. 60453
- Monday, July 25: 601 Route 83, Bensenville, Ill. 60106
- Monday, August 1: 2609 Farnsworth Ave., Aurora, Ill. 60505
In conjunction with these sessions, there will be fuel specials surrounding Unleaded15 providing limited time only pricing to Thorntons guests. The dates and locations of these fuel specials will be announced next week.
Unleaded15 (up to 15% ethanol, 85% gasoline) provides an octane rating of 88, and is the most widely-tested fuel ever introduced to consumers. It contains approximately 15% ethanol, and is approved by the EPA for use in model year 2001 or newer cars, light duty trucks, SUV’s and Flex Fuel vehicles. This fuel typically costs less than regular Unleaded, and is believed to deliver better performance and fewer harmful emissions.
