1.4T Lavida cannot use 92 gasoline. Taking the 2021 1.4T Lavida as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4670mm in length, 1806mm in width, and 1474mm in height, a wheelbase of 2688mm, a minimum ground clearance of 130mm, a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, a trunk capacity of 510 liters, and a curb weight of 1320kg. The 2021 1.4T Lavida features a front MacPherson strut suspension, a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, front-wheel drive, and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

Yes, you can. I've been driving the same model for five years as a veteran driver and always use 92 octane. Volkswagen's 1.4T engine is quite sophisticated, and the label inside the fuel filler cap clearly states '92 or above unleaded gasoline.' However, you might occasionally feel less power compared to 95 octane when climbing slopes, but it's perfectly sufficient for urban commuting. Remember to refuel at major gas stations, as smaller ones sometimes have fuel with higher moisture content, which can lead to carbon buildup. You'll save enough for two meals each month compared to using 95 octane. Just remember to add a bottle of fuel system cleaner during maintenance to clean the fuel injectors.
