Should the Accord use 92 or 95 octane gasoline?
1 Answers
The Accord equipped with a turbocharged engine should use 95 octane gasoline; the Accord with a naturally aspirated engine should use 92 octane gasoline. The gasoline octane rating is the ratio of the actual gasoline's anti-knock performance to that of standard gasoline. The higher the octane number, the stronger the anti-knock performance. Standard gasoline is composed of isooctane and n-heptane. A higher octane number is not necessarily better; the appropriate gasoline grade should be selected based on the engine's compression ratio. The Accord is a mid-size sedan under Honda, and this model enjoys excellent sales and reputation in China. The tenth-generation Accord has a very attractive appearance, and its exterior and interior design cater to the aesthetic preferences of young consumers.
