According to the article, the Brazilian ethanol is produced from sugar cane.
 I'm not sure economics would compare to grain based ethanol.

I don't understand why a country like Brazil has Ethanol 
fueled cars available and we don't. Ethanol costs about 
1/2 what gasoline costs and is renewable. The article even
talks about an owner of a 2004 Chevy Montana pickup happy
to be paying $10 to fill up instead of $17.
