Post here if you are, and your country and approximate location if you can.
Edit: I didn’t want to make the post subject pedantic and need a [serious] tag, lol.
E2: ok, looks like a local hiccup for that station. Kinda on edge, there are going to be shortages. Just don’t know when. Gas here is hitting $4/gal at some stations. Mostly close to $3.90 at the rest. We were paying $2.65 when this started.
I’ll go first. One of our local gas stations is out of premium gas. It may not seem like a big deal but one of our cars is a plug-in electric that also has a gas motor that requires premium. While it’s only one station now, It’s likely a direct result of US action in Iran. I think it’s just the leading edge of problems to come.
What car is it? I doubt it really requires premium fuel. It’ll probably run better on premium. But I doubt any non enthusiast naturally aspirated car would 100% require premium.
It’s a turbocharged engine on a PHEV Mini. This car is finicky AF.
If it’s a first-gen Chevy Volt I ran mine for 10 years on regular gas no problem.
No, it’s a turbocharged PHEV Mini. They’re very finicky, unfortunately.
