Is RON97 fuel really more efficient for long distance journeys or is just another assumption made by people?</p> <p>Let’s find out what the difference between these fuels before we draw any conclusion.</p> <div> <figure id="attachment_1882" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1882" style="width: 520px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/IMAG1559.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-1882 size-medium" src="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/IMAG1559-520x293.jpg" alt="Pumping RON95 Petrol at Petron Station" width="520" height="293" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-1882" class="wp-caption-text">Pumping RON95 Petrol at Petron Station</figcaption></figure> </div> <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Fact:</span><br /> RON, or Research Octane Number, is a number that is awarded to different grades of fuel with regards to its capability to resist auto-ignition aka. knocking. Thus with higher grade RON fuels in your ride, your engine would find it more difficult to auto-ignite as resistance is higher.</p> <p>Higher compression ratio engine (supercar or luxury car engine) would naturally require fuel with elevated RON figures as they deal with higher temperatures and compression, and thus are more prone to knocking issues. Putting lower grade of fuel (lesser than RON97) into the high compression ratio engine car will cause the car to burn the fuel less efficient, thus the car will under power and damaging the engine as well.</p> <p>To make this simple, drivers are recommended to use fuel with higher RON numbers, such RON97 or RON98 if the drivers are driving a high compression ratio engine car such as Type-R Honda Civic 2.0. If the driver is driving a car with lower compression ratio engine car such as Toyota Vios like me, then putting RON95 fuel would be sufficient.</p> <figure id="attachment_3132" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3132" style="width: 520px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/IMG_1942.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-3132 size-medium" title="Higher compression ratio engine would naturally require fuel with elevated RON figures as they deal with higher temperatures" src="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/IMG_1942-520x390.jpg" alt="Toyota Vios VVT-i Engine Cover" width="520" height="390" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-3132" class="wp-caption-text">Higher compression ratio engine would naturally require fuel with elevated RON figures as they deal with higher temperatures</figcaption></figure> <p>In another way, by putting RON97 fuel into the car does not give the driver more mileages than RON95 fuel if the car does not require RON 97 fuel.</p> <figure id="attachment_2605" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-2605" style="width: 520px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/IMG_1303.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-2605" src="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/IMG_1303-520x390.jpg" alt="Peugeot 208 GTi aluminium Gear Knob with 6 Speed Close Ratio Manual Gearbox" width="520" height="390" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-2605" class="wp-caption-text">Technically, putting RON97 fuel into your car does not give you more mileages than RON95 fuel if your car does not require RON 97 fuel</figcaption></figure> <p>The fact that RON95 fuel is sold at cheaper prices does not mean that RON95 fuel is of lesser quality, instead, it is a type of fuel that caters for specific engine requirements, just like how the RON97 caters for higher performance car’s engine.</p> <p>If the car does not require RON97 fuel, it is best that the driver sticks back to RON95 fuel as there are no proven statistics that prove that RON97 fuel performs better than RON95 fuel for a vehicle that carries on the same engine.</p> <div> <figure id="attachment_1927" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-1927" style="width: 520px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><a href="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/IMAG1613.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-1927" src="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/IMAG1613-520x293.jpg" alt="Petron Malaysia RON95" width="520" height="293" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-1927" class="wp-caption-text">Petron Malaysia RON95</figcaption></figure> </div> <p>The amount of distance that you travel would definitely depend on the <a title="40 Fuel Economy Tips & Factors Affecting Your Car’s Fuel Efficiency" href="http://www.carreviewsncare.com/40-fuel-economy-tips-factors-affecting-your-cars-fuel-efficiency/">habit of the drivers</a> rather than the type of fuel put into the petrol tank.
