What type of gasoline should the Sylphy use?
2 Answers
Sylphy can use 92 or 95 octane gasoline. Precautions for refueling include: 1. Add more fresh fuel before long-distance trips; 2. Do not exceed the upper limit of the fuel tank; 3. Turn off the engine and power when parking; 4. Smoking is prohibited. Taking the 2021 Sylphy as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of: length 4631mm, width 1760mm, height 1503mm, wheelbase 2700mm, minimum ground clearance 166mm, and curb weight 1188kg. The 2021 Sylphy features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension, with a front-wheel drive system.
As a long-time owner of the Nissan Sylphy, I've been driving this car for seven years and always insisted on using 92-octane unleaded gasoline. The manual clearly recommends 92-octane, which is not only economical but also maintains a stable fuel consumption of around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, saving me dozens of dollars on fuel each month. I remember once trying 95-octane to see the difference, but there was almost no change in performance, just a lighter wallet. Using the correct fuel is crucial—the engine's compression ratio is about 10.8:1, perfectly matched with 92-octane to prevent knocking and damage. I make it a habit to refuel at reputable gas stations and check the fuel cap seal to avoid impurities clogging the injectors. During regular maintenance, technicians also advise against blindly opting for higher octane—92 is more than sufficient. The Sylphy's engine is incredibly durable, and this approach is also eco-friendly and resource-efficient. In short, following the official guidelines is the way to go—it's safe, cost-effective, and good for the car.
