What Octane Gasoline Should the Tayron Use?

[StKeira]

The Tayron uses 95-octane gasoline. The entire Tayron lineup is equipped with turbocharged engines, featuring three variants in total: a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, a low-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and a high-power version of the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power output at 5000 to 6000 rpm and a peak torque range between 1750 and 3000 rpm. The low-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers maximum power at 5000 rpm and peak torque from 1600 to 4000 rpm. The high-power 2.0-liter turbocharged engine achieves maximum power between 4500 and 6200 rpm and peak torque from 1500 to 4400 rpm. The Tayron adopts Volkswagen's new family design language, which has been gradually introduced across several new models in the Volkswagen lineup. Compared to the previous Volkswagen family design, the Tayron appears more youthful and stylish.

I've been driving the Tayron for several years and always stick to using 95-octane gasoline. Volkswagen's turbocharged engine has a high compression ratio, and using lower-octane fuel can cause knocking, which sounds like the engine is pinging. Over time, this can damage components. The owner's manual clearly recommends 95-octane or higher, and I follow it every time. Although 92-octane is cheaper, 95-octane burns more completely, delivers better power response, and improves fuel efficiency—saving on repair costs in the long run. A friend of mine tried saving money with 92-octane and ended up spending thousands on engine repairs. So, I recommend filling up with quality 95-octane from reputable stations to avoid major repairs—don’t overlook this detail. A smooth and stable ride is what really matters. During regular maintenance, have the mechanic check the fuel system to prevent carbon buildup or impurities, ensuring a longer lifespan for your car.

When I first bought the Tayron, I really didn't know about the fuel requirements. I had to search online and check the manual to confirm that it requires 95 octane gasoline. Now it runs smoothly with good acceleration and no strange noises. Friends all recommend this octane rating because the engine tuning is sensitive, and lower octane fuel may cause jerking or wear. The manual is the authoritative guide, and following it is the most worry-free approach. It costs a bit more, but protecting the car's engine is worth it. I consistently use Sinopec's 95 octane fuel, and with a membership card, I can even get some discounts. New drivers shouldn't experiment with 92 octane—engine damage would be a big hassle. Always pay attention to the manual's recommendations, maintain regular fueling habits, and keeping the car healthy will save you both worry and money in the long run.

I drive the Tayron for daily family use, and refueling is straightforward—just use 95-octane gasoline. My husband always says this car's engine requires higher-octane fuel to prevent knocking, as clearly recommended in the manual. Using 95-octane not only ensures strong performance but also reduces issues, lowering maintenance costs. Although it's a bit more expensive, I feel reassured using it regularly for grocery runs. Avoid using 92-octane to prevent damaging parts. Signing up for a membership when refueling can save some money reasonably. Maintaining the car well is the top priority—don’t skimp on small expenses.
