If it is a car with a turbocharged engine, it is necessary to use gasoline with an octane rating of 95 or above (including 95). If it is a car with a naturally aspirated engine, 92 octane is sufficient. Below is some relevant information about gasoline: Gasoline standards: 93 or 97 octane gasoline adopts the National IV production standard, while 92 and 95 octane gasoline adopt the National V standard, which is more environmentally friendly. 95 octane gasoline not only has lower fuel consumption and saves fuel but also better protects the engine. Meaning of the numbers before gasoline: The octane rating of gasoline actually represents its octane number. The higher the octane rating, the better its anti-knock performance. The octane rating has little to do with the quality of the gasoline.
