What type of gasoline should be used for the Mercedes-Benz G63?
2 Answers
Use gasoline with an octane rating of 98. Here is some related information about the Mercedes-Benz G-Class: 1. Exterior Design: The flat surfaces and simple straight lines give the G-Class its unique style. This represents the pinnacle of architectural design—optimal practicality. The resulting clear, concise visual effect and strong visual impact make the G-Class's design impeccable. The G-Class's functional design follows the Bauhaus architectural principle of "form follows function." It is this practicality-oriented approach that allows the G-Class's classic body lines and well-proportioned shape to exude a strong sense of dignified beauty. 2. Interior Design: Once inside, those familiar with Mercedes-Benz will find the cabin familiar. The interior of this model clearly draws inspiration from the previous generation of Mercedes-Benz sedans (particularly resembling the W202 C-Class). The dark-toned cabin aligns with the practical principles of an off-road vehicle. The dashboard, as the core of the interior, maintains a neat and generous styling overall, consistent with the simple and rugged exterior—neither overly aggressive nor excessively curvaceous.
As an owner who has driven this car, I noticed a clear label for 98-octane gasoline inside the G63 fuel filler cap. AMG engineers mentioned that this V8 engine features a high compression ratio design of 9.8:1, and 98-octane fuel provides better anti-knock performance. Once during a road trip when 98-octane wasn't available, I temporarily filled up with 95-octane and immediately felt the engine sound become muffled, with two slight jerks during acceleration. Later during maintenance, the technician read the fault codes and found early ignition records in four cylinders. Now I'd rather take a detour to get 98-octane—after all, the repair costs for this car could cover three years' worth of fuel.
