Honda Elysion uses 92-grade gasoline. The method to open the fuel tank cap of the Honda Elysion is as follows: 1. There is a fuel tank cap release switch located at the lower left side of the driver's position; 2. To open the fuel tank cap, simply pull the switch; 3. The fuel tank cap can then be opened for refueling. After refueling, ensure the fuel tank cap is tightly closed to prevent fuel evaporation or, in severe cases, accidents. The Honda Elysion is a mid-to-high-end MPV launched by Dongfeng Honda. The overseas version of the Honda Elysion is equipped with a 2.4-liter engine, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission, and offers both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions.

I previously drove a Honda Elysion for some time. The manual clearly states to use 92 octane unleaded gasoline, not below 90 octane, otherwise the engine may experience knocking or noise. This is related to the engine design of the car. The Elysion's engine has a relatively low compression ratio, so 92 octane is sufficient. If you use 95 octane gasoline, it's also acceptable, but there's no need to waste money as the performance difference is minimal. The key is to avoid using the wrong fuel, such as mixing fuels or using lower octane ratings, which can damage spark plugs or increase fuel consumption over time. When refueling, I make it a habit to check the octane rating at the gas station and also inspect the fuel system during maintenance, which saves money and ensures safety. In short, following the manual is always the right approach, and the car runs very smoothly.

I've worked on many Honda Elysions, and I recommend using 92 octane gasoline, which is suitable for its naturally aspirated engine. If you use fuel below 90 octane, it may cause pre-ignition and damage the engine; higher octane like 98 is unnecessary and a waste of money. You can find the recommendation by checking the fuel cap or the owner's manual. Also, pay attention to fuel quality, as poor-quality gasoline can cause carbon buildup and affect engine lifespan—it's best to use reputable gas stations. Regular maintenance of the fuel filter can also prevent issues. If you accidentally use the wrong fuel, clean it promptly to avoid compromising driving safety.
