Gasoline/Petrol Preference

Hello Porsche9,

no, every of the listed fuels is unleaded today. Since 1988 leaded fuels are forbidden in Germany. Unleaded fuels were introduced in 1984. Ethanol added fuels E5 (5%) and E10 (10%) were introduced around 2009.

Normal 91ROZ and Super 95ROZ always has 5% ethanol over here. There is also Super 95ROZ with 10% Ethanol available. That is called E10.

There is also E85 available. Which means 85% ethanol. But you need an engine and fuel system that is modified for that kind of fuel.

Regards, Markus

Thanks for the details. Why do they still bother with the term Bleifrei still? It all been Bleifrei for almost 30 years.
