In Pixar’s Cars 2, what fuel is promoted as the energy source for the World Grand Prix?

The story behind the answer

In Pixar’s Cars 2, Allinol is promoted as the energy source for the World Grand Prix.

Allinol is presented as a clean alternative fuel created and promoted by Sir Miles Axlerod. He frames the World Grand Prix as a demonstration that cars can race using a supposedly environmentally friendly energy source. The fuel’s introduction gives the film an international competition and a technological mystery at the same time.

The espionage plot reveals that the apparent clean-fuel campaign is connected to a plan involving modified Allinol and electromagnetic pulse weapons. The conspiracy targets cars using the fuel and is designed to make alternative energy look dangerous, thereby benefiting a different energy interest.

Allinol is fictional and belongs to the Cars universe. It should not be confused with Rust-eze, the medical product brand that sponsors McQueen, or Dinoco, the long-running racing sponsor associated with The King and later McQueen.
