So the price difference does not justify the miniscule gains. The air was colder on the 93 octane day as well so wouldn’t that also correlate to increased torque? I’d argue that the colder temps did more for higher torque than the octane level.

Yes, it’s true that in some vehicles (typically those with a V8 or a supercharger) premium gasoline is more often than not the norm. In other vehicles, 91 is recommended for optimum performance, but 87 octane can be used temporarily. However, for the Honda Fit, 87 octane is recommended, and filling up with more expensive premium gasoline won’t chan...
Reformulated Gasoline
First, we need to discuss the use of reformulated and non-reformulated gasoline. Reformulated gasoline is the gasoline that is designed to burn cleaner than non-reformulated gasoline. For this reason, it has become widely popular in many regions of the United States. It has even become mandatory in many states to use this kind of fuel. Therefore, it’s good to know that all engine configurations in the Honda Fit are designed to take both reformulated and non-reformulated gasoline. Consequently...
Gasoline/Oxygenated Blends Or E-85
Secondly, we have to talk about using oxygenated blends of gasoline. Oxygenated blends of gasoline typically contain substances like ethanol or methanol. These substances are made from biosources or sources that burn more cleanly than regular gasoline. Therefore, their use is endorsed in the United States. However, there are strict limits and rules you need to follow. Firstly, Honda Fit sold in North America between 2007 – 2014 can take gasoline with a maximum of 10% ethanol (E10). From 2015...
Gasoline With Added Materials
Thirdly, there’s the use of additives in gasoline which is a common question for car owners: should or shouldn’t you use aftermarket additives? These additives are often marketed as octane boosters (helping your engine reach peak performance) or cleaning detergents (to keep the engine in optimal condition). However, it’s good to know that Honda (and practically all carmakers) recommend against aftermarket additives. This is because many of these additives contain some form of silicone or meta...
Hearing a slight knocking coming from the engine is an entirely regular occurrence. Especially when the car is performing at peak levels, such as when you’re towing with your Honda Fit, a slight knocking can be heard. However, if this knocking sound becomes very audible and happens right after refilling, you may have more significant problems. Firs...

Nov 15, 2023 · Honda recommends using 87 octane, but I'm curious if using a higher octane fuel could provide any benefit in the long run.
Which octane to use. New owner of a 2016 Fit EX with about 40k on it here. Was wondering what octane gas you all use for your Fits. I had been debating switching to 88 (the E15 stuff, Sheetz and a couple other places near me have it), but wanted to see if anyone in this sub had experience using it. 1.
