I see a lot of fuel additive products that either claim they protect against fuel system corrosion and/or claim to protect against the use of ethanol fuels (which I think is effectively the same claim). I have also seen claims that with "modern vehicles", such fuel additives are not necessary at all because modern vehicle fuel systems have been designed to not be susceptible to ethanol based fuels and the corrosion that these fuels can create.
Which is true?
I live in California and on the California Energy Commission website I have read..."Gasoline sold in California at retail is made up of 90 percent petroleum based gasoline (as specified by the California Air Resources Board) and 10 percent ethanol. Ethanol became the primary blending oxygenate in gasoline in 2003, as Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) was fully phased out of by that year."... - Source: https://bit.ly/3dytc0Y
