Lahat ng gas natin dito unleaded. Unleaded means the gas is not leaded, so premium, blaze, xcs, vpower etc. Is unleaded

rusty_ryan, tama si renzo_d10 na lahat ng gasoline sa pinas ay unleaded na since na approve yung clean air act noong 2002. Lahat ng oil companies complied to that.
Ngayon, yung sinasabing premium ng SA mo ay gumamit ka daw ng high octane gas. Check you manual kung anung recommended octane ng 1.2 M/T. Ang gamma engine kasi octane-responsive engines.
Ako kasi 95 RON gamit ko.

Sa gasoline stations, usually may sticker 95+, ibig sabihin ng (+) ay 95-96 RON yun. Caltex Gold, Petron XCS yung may 95+ RON.

Just an fyi, may mandate na ngayon ang ating gov to make all gasoline 95 RON. Wala pang date kung kelan ang deadline but Gasoline stations will definitely comply. Tapos isa pang mandate is to make gasoline Euro 4 grade, ibang sabihin papapababain ang mga elements na nakakalason ng hangin natin. Sabi ng Shell at Petron, 2016 pa daw mangyayari iyon sa mga planta nila. As of now, sa diesel pa lang may Euro 4 grade like Unioil.

Thank you sa mga response. new owner of Kia Rio lang kasi. Accent at Rio kasi pinagpipilian ko dati, madami kasi issues ung accent kaya ung rio napili ko.

What i meant to ask sana kung ang mga kappa engines ba ay octane-responsive din gaya ng gamma engines? I visited kia picanto thread din and may mga gumagamit ng 95 RON(xcs,gold...) and 93 RON(xtra unleaded, fuelsave...) On the manual nakalagay 91 RON or higher.

Just wanna know the performance of the car when you put ung mga xtra unleaded or fuelsave. Right now kasi im using xcs, medyo ok naman FC and ung engine response. syempre mas mura kasi ung mga fuelsave

Aking kasi Rio HB / AT. First time ko nag try ng Petron Extra Unleaded, parati ako naka apak sa gas at medyo hindi ko gusto yung hatak.
Nag try din ako ng Fuel Save, maganda yung engine response pero, kailangan ko rin umapag sa gas.

Ikaw, try mo for yourself at look for the feel you want. Kasi tayong mga drivers, may ibat ibang feel andar.

Kung cost savings lang naman, few centavos lang naman ang difference with regular and premium so parang hindi mo rin ramdam. For example, sa amin ngayon sa Petron, extra unleaded is 48 pesos, XCS is 48.10 pesos. 10 centavo is not that costly. And if you will compare the quality, sa XCS na ako kasi may mga additives na kasama yun to enchance your engine).

Marihap talagang maka mura sa gas, lalo na pag na traffic ka. Unless bumaba pa lalo yung gas.

Anong gas ginagamit nyo sa Kia Rio 1.2 M/T? sabi kasi nung service crew sa kia dapat daw premium kasi requirement ng engine ang high octane, nabasa ko naman sa manual dapat unleaded.

Kumusta FC niyo sir?

[rusty_ryan]

Kumusta FC niyo sir?

As per sa trip computer,
11-12 km/l city driving
18 km/l highway 80-100 kph
Mga 9 km/l heavy traffic.

Im using petron xcs, di ko pa lang na try ung xtra unleaded.
Nung nag manual compute pala ko, mga 10-11 km/l ung lumabas.
So far ok naman, medyo pareho lumalabas sa vios namin.

[trup]

Ganda talaga ng rio hb, parang nababaliwala yung mga comments nyo about poor fc pag nakakakita ako......

[dwhitekiss]

May nakapagtry na ba ng alin man sa mga gas brands na ito?

Unioil - Quantum
PTT -Performa 95+ (E10) Premium Gasoline
Total - Protec

[nutrino]

sir tanong ko lng ulit, ung unit nyo po is ung 1.2 slx? ano po ung pinagkaiba sa 1.4 ex?

[rusty_ryan]

1.2 lx po ung akin. Base model lang kaya wala masyado features.
Power front windows only, 1-din hu, hubcap rims, no abs, no airbags, 2 colors only(white and silver), no central locking(nagpalagay lang ako nito kaya meron na ngayon).

Alam ko ung slx naka-mags na, central locking and driver side airbag.

Magandang Gabi Po,

gusto ko lang i-share yung experience ko sa KIA RIO 1.4 HATCH actually, bago pa lang sya mga kahapon(Nov.16) lang namin nakuha.
then, kaninang umaga ginamit ko sya papasok sa school(Nova-UST) ang FC nya ay 10l/100kms. Nagpakarga din ako bago pumasok ng Xtra Unleaded, halos 3/4 din ng tank yung na-fill then chineck ko yung fuel gauge nya pag-uwi ko nang bahay mga nasa kalahati pa yung gas. So far, wala naman akong problema sa FC
siguro para sakin hinay-hinay lang sa pag-apak sa accelerator.

yun salamat.

Hi. Whats the traffic condition when you traversed the road to and from your school?

I think that too should have been a factor in your FC.

Im planning to get a Rio sedan 1.4EX or City 1.3S by the way, both M/T. Still on the stage of evaluation and comparison.

[kidgz]

di po kaya medyo malaki o mabigat ang kaha ng RIO para sa engine nya?

kaya di ganun ka tipid sa gas...

[joshy1229]

The traffic condition when I drive the Rio was medium-heavy because there are a lot of stoplights in Manila.

That's why I think it has a good FC.

Hi, what's your ave speed sa route mo?

[joshy1229]

Hi, what's your ave speed sa route mo?

Pag nagd-drive po ako sa highway mga 30-60 depende sa traffic. With ECO mode ON.

I mean sa screen meron dun average speed..Starting from point A pag dating niyo sa point B (your usual route)... Park your car.. Ano reading ng average speed? Then at the end of the day (nagrereset yung average reading if the car has been turned off for coulple of hours), from point B to point A (paguwi sa bahay naman) ano naman ang reading?

FYI, the ECO function whether naka ON or OFF niya.. it does no effect on engine performance.. It only shows if your are driving economically or not.. Dati akala ko kapag naka OFF yun eh ala sports mode yung hatch.. hindi pala..

i am endorsing an aggressive pedal habit by shifting up at 2000rpm or when the prompter illuminates. i tried it and it works for my ex mt rio. as a result, i have improved my fc from 6km/l to 7.5km/l based on my last full tank. i think my next reading will improve because the fc rate in the trip computer is showing 10.9l/100km compared to the previous 12.5l/100km reading of city driving. hope this helps.

yes sir parehas tayo around 2k-2.5k shifting point ko, i thing if we stay on that powerband bukod sa malakas hatak eh matipid sa FC, pero sir 7.5km/L is still high IMHO, ako kasi poorest fc ko 8km/L which is super heavy traffic,yung tipong 2hours mo tatakbuhin yung 20kms. Normal consumption ko is 10kms/L manual computation. sa trip computer naka register is 8.5-9.5L/100kms always 2 pa kami ni Misis nakasakay.
