What does gas/petrol cost where you're located?

Well either way, 105 octane by itself means nothing unless you tell us which rating method was used.

125.9 pence per litre of Diesel at the Tesco near me in Scotland and that's cheap. So about $6 per US Gallon. For UK Gallons (about 4.5 litres) it's £5.73 so about $4.11

As others have noted, it’s the same gas, just with different measurements. Here’s a handy conversion chart:

http://www.pencilgeek.org/2009/05/octane-rating-conversions.html

 

Euro 105 Octane is US 100 Octane. Not common at all, but definitely available (especially at or near racetracks).

We're at $2.65 regular / $3.15 premium by my house in Atlanta.  

95 Octane is the "low class fuel" around here ... the Super Plus would be 98 Octane...

Correct, but here you also can buy 102 and sometimes 105

[Lurick]

$2.59 per gallon right now, not sure what that works out to exactly for Euro/Liter though

Regular in Germany is 95octan, so its way better compared to US Gas

Octane =/= quality.

YEP! But in general German gas is much more pure and has better quaility

 

Octane is just needed for  (some) tuners (like me) I can run bit more compression and boost with the 102 stuff. But I don't do it daily

Pure also doesn't mean it's higher quality.

Some types of gas are mixed with al kinds of shit wich either reduces power or gunks up your engine and (this more) your cat

As others have pointed out, having a higher octane fuel is not inherently better.

 

Higher octane essentially (lay mans explanation, obviously skipping over huge details) means that the fuel is more stable and less prone to pre-ignition or causing knock.

 

If your engine is rated for US Octane 87 (bog standard "Regular" fuel - or around Euro Octane 91), then there's literally no benefit in the vast majority of cases for using higher octane fuel.

Source? That's a damn huge claim.

Indeed, higher Octane is needed for some specific usages - otherwise people are just wasting their money if they are using higher octane than their car actually requires.

No, it doesn't.

 

Quality of gasoline comes down to two things: quality of the process and quality of the additives.

Doesn't make you a gasoline tech, and I'm pretty sure Mercedes employes janitors. Just saying you work there doesn't mean much.

Many mixes in the US include cleaners for fuel injectors and cylinder heads. If a cat is getting gunked up faster, then it's doing it's job.

A lot of Europe, including Germany, uses the RON octane rating. The US uses the AKI rating, which is (RON + MON)/2 (MON is another rating). 95 RON is about 90 AKI for most petrol types, which is close enough to the most common lower grade fuel available in the US.

 

So again, octane rating is useless by itself unless you give which rating system it used.

[KingCobra484]

£1.25/L for 95 

£1.30/L+ for 98-99, it varies 

 

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

1.10$ / Ltr. 
75.72 INR per Liter.

I'm so loss in here since all use gallon instead of liters and like Mira has said the "octane rating" seems not to be universally the same...

 

Either ways I use here in Brazil a gasoline called "Petrobrás Podium" which they claim to be the best gasoline in the world with Octane (IAD) rating of 98 and 25mg/Kg Maximum content of sulfur.

 

I pay around US$ 1,33 per liter.

Basically everyone but the US sells per litre. People have been converting into Gallons to appease ye Americans. Also of note: Imperial Gallons and US Gallons are not the same thing (because, you know, Murica).

 

FYI, the IAD Octane rating is the same as used in North America - we call it PON (Pump Octane Number - It's the mean between the RON and MON Octane ratings). But IAD and PON are the same thing. Europe mostly just uses RON.

[adman29]

I pay about $2.30/gal right now for E-10, and 2.80/gal for regular no ethanol like 89 Octane in US-OK right now.

Like 2-3 months ago it was like 2.05/gal for E-10 and 2.25/gal for regular no ethanol, and I miss that

The US has standards for detergent in fuel for emissions. AFAIK that's it. You can buy super duper octane race fuel but it's uncommon. I think the only place you can get it near me is at Portland International Raceway.

 

Our premium is "92" octane, but from what local tuners have told me, it's not radically different than 91 and 93 is definitely better.

If we're talking about ethanol-free, it most certainly does not have any reference for quality. Ethanol also shouldn't be gunking up your engine. It may wear rubber parts more, which, if you have an oil filter, is accounted for, but manufacturers and ECUs have compensated for corn in our fuel for a long time now.

Really expensive where I am.

For today..

$1.449/L  ($5.483/gal) for 87 Octane

$1.749/L ($6.620/gal) for 91 Octane

... And my car takes the latter... ._.

Last month it was around US$6/gallon for 87 octane here in Vancouver BC hahahahahahaha

$8/gallon for 91 octane.

I don't know WTF is going on with gas pricing in BC.

Lowest so far...up until now of 2019 is 135.9?...right around Canada Day.

Damn, the last time I remember anything below $1.00 was back in the late 90's when I was a kid.

$0.98, $0.96...$0.87? at the gas station at the end of my street.
