In our time, fuel is constantly growing in price. Rising excise taxes, fluctuating stocks, rising raw material costs and overheads - all this and much more. and it helps the next refueling in emptying already not very thick wallets compatriots. In the current conditions, many come to minds "brilliant" idea: to reduce fuel consumption, the flood of petrol of the lowest order.
So, will you be able to save money if instead of the 95th gasoline you are supposed to "feed" your swallow with the 92nd? The answer to this question depends on what is meant by the word "economy" and when this very "economy" should occur. If we talk directly about the moment of refueling, then yes, you will have to pay really less. If we talk about the long-term consequences of such a car operation, then the word “economy” will have to be replaced by the phrase “additional costs”. Finally, many are probably wondering whether it will be possible to deceive the engine and reduce the consumption of liters in this way?
No, it won't work. Contrary to the myth popular on the Internet, the use of gasoline with a lower octane number leads not to a reduction in consumption, but to an increase in it. On average, the increase in consumption is about 10%. If we recalculate this in value, then the 92nd and the 95th will win in such a situation, but the difference will be literally a penny. Even if you forget about all the problems that may arise with the engine in the future.

Separately, it should be noted that modern cars are not very well adapted to 92 gasoline in principle. For this reason, very often the creators of cars and engines indicate an even higher octane number than is actually needed. This is done in order to once again be reinsured against the impact of low-quality fuel on the machine unit.
