Allinol is the name of the supposed alternative fuel created by Miles Axlerod in Pixar's twelfth full-length animated feature film Cars 2.
History[]
In the movie, it was first thought that Allinol was the outcome of Miles's research to find a renewable and clean-burning fuel. Axlerod organized the World Grand Prix to promote it.
At the end of the movie, it is revealed that Allinol is not an alternative fuel after all, and is simply gasoline that Axlerod bio-engineered to expand and eventually explode if hit with an electromagnetic pulse.
Allinol could be lethal for a car if the level of radiation is sufficient and, as such, was used to torture and kill Rod Redline.
This was all part of Sir Miles Axlerod's very own plan to turn the world against alternative energy and have them rely on gasoline due to him and his Lemon henchmen owning the largest untapped oil reserves on the planet.
What happened to Allinol after Axlerod was arrested and his scheme was foiled, is but unclear. Presumably, the fuel was disused because of its original use.

Trivia[]
- The name "Allinol" is likely to be a play on the words "all in all" and "ethanol". The resulting word sounds like "all in all" when said aloud.
- The logo for Allinol is a modified version of the logo used for the Land Pavilion at Walt Disney World's EPCOT Center from 1982 to 2005.
- The fact that Allinol is used in endurance racing is likely a reference to the introduction of alternative fuels to the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the American Le Mans Series in 2009 (which is also the year that Cars 2 premiered). Some of the Le Mans Prototypes used alternative fuels in the ALMS as a part of the Green X Challenge championship. Also, in 2014, Formula One car engines were made more environmentally-friendly and fuel efficient.
- Allinol's mascot was Globie, a car-ified globe with wheels and a windshield.
