Previously, the British prince had already converted the Aston Martin DB6 engine to run on bioethanol, but apparently, that wasn’t enough.

The engine was modified again and now it uses white wine as fuel. Aston Martin engineers stated that the upgrade was simple because this inline-six can run on anything that burns. Charles shouldn’t have any fuel supply problems. British wine is currently not widely purchased, and there is regularly an excess of it in warehouses.

Additionally, by the prince’s direction, the royal family’s train locomotive has been converted to biodiesel from vegetable oil.

And for everyday driving, Charles decided to purchase a Jaguar I-Pace electric car.
