Should I get premium gas for my Mercedes-Benz?

Yes, you should get premium gas for your Mercedes-Benz. Not only is it manufacturer suggested, but here’s why.

What is the difference between premium gas and regular gas?

To start, there is a key difference between premium gas and regular gas; the octane levels. Premium gas has an octane level of 91 and higher. Regularily, if the vehicle manufacturer doesn’t suggest premium gas for your vehicle, then you’re just wasting money by getting it. However, if your vehicle manufacturer does recommend it, like Mercedes-Benz does, then you should follow their guidelines. This is because the OEM knows your car best, and it knows what the engine operates most efficiently with. In the case of your Mercedes-Benz vehicle, it has a high-performance engine that needs that higher octane level in order to function at its best. In fact, if you use regular gas in your Mercedes-Benz, this can damage the engine and cause it to die earlier than it normally would if you used the correct gas.
