Total Excellium Experience

[lpasuncion]

Anyone tried Total Excellium? I am an XCS user pero nung nasubukan ko ito, parang mas malakas humatak yung sasakyan ko.

[JohnM]

My Vios ranks XCS lower than the cheapest unleaded.

Engine felt smoother and quieter on Excellium. Better than Gold or my usual Nitro+.

[1D4LV]

anong octane ng excellium?
what's the average per liter price?

have not visited din the total station near my place. nag switch kasi ako sa nitro + eh.

95+ daw: Total launches Excellium gasoline | Business, News, The Philippine Star | philstar.com

95 octane rating din ang Excellium.. Im using Shell Nitro+ right now, masubukan nga ang TOTAL sa next fill up... BTW, not happy with XCS kaya nagshift ako sa Shell...

2014 Vios 1.3E

Same lang para sa akin ang excellium at xcs in terms of power pero mas tipid sa konsumo ang excellium by a little lang.
Eto ranking in terms of fuel consumption:
1. Total Excellium
2. Petron XCS/Caltex Gold
3. Shell Nitro +

Hindi ako gumagamit ng unleaded or silver parang ang pangit ng takbo ng makina.

[K.I.L.L.]

Would this also be E10 or E15?

[lpasuncion]

Not sure about E10 or E15 pero earth friendly naman daw sya based sa advertising nya.

IMO. Yung Shell Nitro+ ang daling maubos and yung XCS naman nung yun pa gamit ko eh akala ko mas ok until i tried yung sa Total Excellium.

OT: And sponsor pa nya ang Red Bull Racing sa F1 :D

Newly branded premium fuel, probably with new additives compared to the old premium fuel of Total.

Honestly, have not felt much difference between maingrade (RON91) unleaded and the higher end unleaded, regardless of fuel brand. I feel the difference more with diesel.

Overall though, the difference isn't night and day and I doubt anyone would be able to differentiate them when a blind test is done. But of course, fuel companies spend millions on marketing and branding to make whatever subtle differences much bigger than they actually are.

[red_one]

nice, may bago pala ang Total.

Kung mataas ang ethanol nito, mas maikli ang storage life ng fuel na ito....

XCS, walang kwenta sa VVTI engines, VPower Nitro ang ok sa VVTi.

[Red Advent 04]

basta ata 95% pataas ang octaine mabilis ang hatak nya dipende sa brand, ako kase nung mag xcs ako bumilis hatak ng makina pero bilis din konsumo nya lalo na kapag binibirit ng todo, shell naman maganda pero ang bilis naman ng consumo nya, yung extra 93% medyo matipid pero mabagal hatak naman. may nag sasabi nga na maganda nga daw yaang sa total yang excellium na yaan..

[Zac_español]

The last time I used Total products gave me a good results too. Pero wala kang malapit dto smin kaya I'm using sea oil xtreme 97 octane (with stp) or caltex gold (techron). Very impressive performance so far

switched back to Excellium from Shell Nitro +

Comparative notes:

a. mas malakas humatak.
b. mas matipid ang FC.... * Shell, i average 10 kpl sa Altis.... Dito sa Excellium, 11.2 kpl.
c. mas mura. dun ako nagpapa karga sa total alabang, 49.10/liter ang excellium. sa Shell Alabang (in front of Madrigal), 50.25/liter ang Nitro +.

Pakarga na kayo Excellium, kawawa naman kasi Total. 17 years na sa Pilipinas, napakaliit pa rin ng market share. 😂

Same with Unioil. Mga enthusiast kuno lang dito sa Tsikot ang kumakarga sa kanila. Aside from that, puro jeepney drivers lang.

Actually Seaoil din, even after their STP additive TV commercials, ang bababa pa rin ng benta. Though marami silang stasyon (400+), ang liliit ng benta per station.

For 99% of Filipinos, big 3 pa rin ang quality fuel. A Shell/Petron site will probably do 1.5-2x the volume compared to if it was Seaoil/Total/Unioil.

its what you call brand mindset. kung sino ang kilala, yun ang bibilihin.
if you look at the big 3, mababa ang usage and market share ng Chevron.... People here prefer Shell and Petron dahil for one, Shell spends millions of pesos in marketing.... Petron, is a Filipino owned company.

same as in toothpaste.... Colgate and Close-up lang.... Pero ninyo alam na maganda ang sistema toothpaste no?

Chevron's market shared has declined significantly in the past 5 years. They are now less than 15% of the market, while Shell and Petron control roughly 70%.

The company is divesting a lot of their operations in the country. They have closed down their refinery in Batangas and is now only an oversized depot. They no longer operate their retail sites, offloading the task to branded wholesalers (Northern Star in the North and Southern Cross in the South).

They're not very competitive in terms of pricing and operations, and a lot of their sites in provinces are awfully mismanaged. I wouldn't be surprised if in 5 years, there would be someone else holding the top 3 spot in the petroleum industry.

OT: my friend is a distributor of Sistema and I like their toothbrushes, much softer than anything Colgate or Oral-B offers. Their toothpastes are ok too but I don't see how they're significantly differentiated from Colgate.

Since all toothpastes are the same to me, I just buy Happee because I admire Lamoiyan's vision to take on the big multinationals.
