The damn Krauts were running on 100% Ethanol at the end of WWII because they had next to no gasoline after the bombing at the Ploesti oil fields, etc.

Not 100%, but it was fairly sizable.. but it was primarily methanol, not ethanol.

What Nazi Germany truly relied upon during 1944-45 was synthetic fuels from coal.
