Kia Motors Pakistan has clarified that its vehicles do not require hi-octane fuel to operate efficiently. According to the company, Kia cars can safely run on regular petrol with a minimum RON 91/92, as specified in their manuals. This announcement comes at a time when rising fuel prices had caused confusion among vehicle owners.
Models Tested for Regular Petrol
The company confirmed that all Kia models sold in Pakistan are designed and tested to run on unleaded petrol with RON 91 or higher. This means that using standard petrol does not compromise engine performance or reliability, ensuring smooth operation for daily driving.
Hi-Octane Fuel Not Mandatory
Kia emphasized that using hi-octane fuel or mixing fuels is optional, not mandatory. All vehicles operate normally on standard fuel, helping customers avoid unnecessary expenses. This guidance is especially useful for those concerned about the high cost of premium fuel.
Safety and Trusted Fuel Stations
Kia advised customers to refuel only at trusted and reputable fuel stations to prevent issues from adulterated or contaminated fuel. The company’s authorized dealer network is also available to provide guidance and support for any fuel-related concerns.
Assurance for Vehicle Owners
This clarification ensures that Kia owners can continue their daily driving without worrying about hi-octane petrol. Vehicles maintain efficiency and reliability on regular petrol, allowing customers to save money without affecting performance.
Alignment with Government Efforts
Kia’s announcement aligns with government efforts to regulate fuel use and promote cost-effective choices. By providing clear guidance, the company helps consumers make informed decisions while minimizing financial stress caused by rising fuel prices.
