What octane is V-power in Austrailia? 98 RON?
nope its 100 RON, our lowest octane available is 92 RON.

Maybe that's why your gas is so much more expensive. You're all running on alcohol injected Geo's!


Well its 98 octane with 5% ethanol.

You can choose between 98 and 100 though if you want.

See, you're 11 octane over what our "normal" gas is here.

You cocksuckers and your complaining about overpriced gas.

It could be because you're using way higher octanes than we are.

Generally the highest you can buy at a gas station is 93-95. Though gas stations (very sporadic) offer a pump for "race gas" that could range from 100-110.

And obviously you can get 114 and higher, but you must special order

I've never once seen a gas station with anything over 93. I've been down the whole East Coast. Max I've ever seen is 93...93 is rare too.

Usually it's 87, 89 and 91 offered.

so our regular is higher then your premium lol.

for us it goes 92, 95, E10(which ends up being 95 but is cheaper then 92), 96, 98, and V Power Extreme is the only fuel Available in Australia with octane rating above 98 with 100 RON.

Like shit, some of you are dumb.

America among other countries does not use RON (research octane number) as the standard.  America uses an average between RON and MON (motor octane number).  

The image below shows how it is calculated and visible when you are at the pump.

Yeah, that same fomula is on any pumps I've seen except the older ones.

Look at the stickers next time you're at a pump.

In Illinois its 87,89,93. You can find 91 but 93 is more common.

I could drive 5 miles across town and get 100 Octane "race fuel" from a Shell Station.

Though when I cross into Iowa the highest is 91 octane.

Ethanol is shit by the way.
