Sure. The lower energy density of ethanol charges its toll.

Yes the Suzuki Celerio sold in The Netherlands, has a very fuel efficient gasoline engine.
That's the very same engine in any other market where the Celerio is available. Too bad the local representant of Suzuki and Mitsubishi in my country is focusing only on the SUVs. I'm sure Suzuki could get a more comfortable sales volume here if other models available in neighboring countries were offered here too.

I don't even remember what octane rating system is more common in Brazil.

Also fuel is way more expensive.
Even the CNG prices skyrocketted in Brazil recently.
