I think the small print get out clause is there for a very good reason "Actual effects and benefits may vary according to vehicle type, driving conditions and driving style." BMW i3 Electric Car

The base fuel is all essentially the same (given it all meets the same standard and is only refined in a handful of locations), it’s about the additives added afterwards. |

^ That’s my understanding of it. The question is do these additives make a difference?

Wouldn’t fancy running a 4.4 in Africa. The sulphur levels in African fuels can be much higher which can clog DPFs more quickly. It’s one of the reasons some country’s fatties are specced less a DPF filter.

My wife’s car is listed for 98ron, but I do wonder with all of the lock downs how much that stuff now sits in the tanks compared to standard 95.... |
