Can the Volkswagen T-Roc use 92 gasoline?
1 Answers
Volkswagen T-Roc cannot use 92 gasoline. The manufacturer specifies that the T-Roc requires 95 (or 97) octane gasoline. The difference between 95 and 92 gasoline lies in the additives and anti-knock properties. Using 92 gasoline may lead to insufficient anti-knock performance, increased fuel consumption, carbon buildup, and even severe engine issues like cylinder scuffing or knocking, which could shorten the engine's lifespan. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The main difference between 92 and 95 gasoline is the ratio of heptane and isooctane. 92 gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% heptane, while 95 gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% heptane. 2. The gasoline octane rating represents its anti-knock performance. A higher number indicates better anti-knock capability, but it does not relate to the quality of the gasoline itself. A higher octane rating does not mean fewer impurities.
