What grade of gasoline does the Land Rover Range Rover use?
2 Answers
Land Rover Range Rover uses 95-octane gasoline, which is a volatile and flammable hydrocarbon mixture liquid obtained through distillation, cracking, or pyrolysis of petroleum. Taking the 2021 Land Rover Range Rover as an example, its body dimensions are: length 5000mm, width 2073mm, height 1869mm, with a wheelbase of 2922mm, a minimum ground clearance of 220mm, a fuel tank capacity of 104 liters, and a luggage compartment capacity of 707 liters. The 2021 Land Rover Range Rover is equipped with a 3.0L mechanical and turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 360ps, a maximum power of 265kw, and a maximum torque of 495nm, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
I've been driving a Range Rover for many years and always opt for 95-octane fuel when refueling. This vehicle's engine demands high-octane gasoline; otherwise, it's prone to knocking—that's premature ignition of the fuel—which can damage internal components over time. I once tried using 92-octane fuel, and not only did fuel consumption increase, but the car also lacked power during acceleration, and the engine noise became noticeably louder. Since then, I've strictly used 95-octane, which provides ample power on highways, quick acceleration, and extends the vehicle's lifespan. Some drivers try to save money by using lower-octane fuel, but the higher maintenance costs make it counterproductive. I recommend owners consult their manual for fuel recommendations and develop a habit of regularly checking fuel quality to protect the engine—it saves both hassle and money in the long run.
