Cleanest Gasoline Brands and Environmental Sustainability
- The cleanest gasoline brands available use high-quality detergents and additives to reduce emissions.
- Recent testing found Top Tier gasolines keep engines significantly cleaner than gasolines meeting only minimum EPA standards.
- For vehicles requiring high octane or with turbo/superchargers, Shell V-Power is an excellent premium choice.
- Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a cleaner vehicle fuel than kerosene, petrol, and diesel and is also safer in the event of spills.
Cleanest Fuel Options
- Hydrogen gas is a clean-burning fuel and considered the cleanest fuel as it does not produce any harmful gases.
- Natural gas emits the least amount of carbon dioxide when combusted, making it the cleanest burning fossil fuel.
Gasoline Octane and Engine Performance
- Premium gas can reduce engine knock but using it in a regular car may be unnecessary and a waste of money.
- A higher-octane gas will not offer higher performance if not required by the car’s manual.
Gas Station Fuel Quality
- Ten gas stations with the best quality fuel include Chevron, Shell, Costco, Sunoco, and Exxon.
- Top Tier gasoline exceeds EPA minimum detergent requirements and helps prevent carbon build-up.
- The top five gas stations with the best fuel quality, amenities, and pricing are Shell, Chevron, Exxon, Sinclair, and QuikTrip.
