E85 is a fuel that has 15 % ethanol added to the mixture.

Ethanol production cost is suppliment by the Goverment. I don't remember the exact numbers....but ethanol is expensive to make. Ethanol cost something like $ 10+ per gallon to make or 3 time more than what gasoline cost to make from oil.
Hydro is right, also dont know where you got those numbers.....
