Should the Buick New Regal Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?
2 Answers
Buick New Regal 1.5T models use 92 octane gasoline, while 2.0T models use 95 octane gasoline. The following are relevant details: 1. The octane rating of gasoline represents its resistance to knocking. Higher octane numbers indicate better anti-knock performance, which results in smoother engine operation, reduced wear, and better engine protection. 2. The Buick New Regal measures 4902mm in length, 1863mm in width, and 1456mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2829mm. In terms of exterior design, the car features a waterfall-style grille, a metallic tri-shield emblem at the center, three-dimensional combination headlights on both sides, and 7-shaped LED daytime running lights that are more visible in low-light conditions compared to standard daytime running lights.
I've been driving the Buick Regal for several years, often on the road, and always using 95-octane gasoline. I remember the owner's manual clearly recommends using 95-octane or higher, because the engine design of this car requires high octane to avoid knocking issues, reducing engine noise and power loss. I tried using 92-octane once or twice and felt the acceleration was a bit slower, with some slight shaking, and I was worried that long-term use might damage sensors or spark plugs. I suggest any new owner first check the manual, look at the fuel cap, or check official online guidance, and not risk major problems to save a little money. It's also more reassuring to ask the mechanic during regular maintenance, after all, safe driving comes first.
