When at the pumps, you may be standing there looking at the premium pump wondering if it is really worth that little bit more to put in your standard family car. Many fuel brands boast that their premium fuel is designed to increase your cars performance whilst keeping the fuel system cleaner. But does it really make much difference?
Experts say that in most cases, with standard vehicles, there will not be a significant difference in the cars performance and most cars perform perfectly well with standard fuel. However, those who own high-performance vehicles or sports cars tend to notice a difference in engine performance when using premium fuel.
The difference in premium fuel for sports cars or high-performance vehicles, is likely due to the difference in compression ration and temperatures in these types of engines. So, using a premium fuel should make a significant difference in these sorts of vehicles.
