Yes. However, it is best to follow the vehicle's manual when selecting the gasoline octane rating. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Gasoline selection: The type of gasoline a car uses is closely related to its engine compatibility. Higher compression ratios result in greater power and efficiency but lower stability, thus requiring gasoline with better anti-knock properties. 2. Risks of mixing: Occasionally mixing different octane ratings is acceptable, but long-term mixing can lead to engine knocking, insufficient power, and accelerated engine wear.
