What fuels can I use to refuel my MINI?

For the best fuel efficiency, the gasoline should be sulfur-free or very low in sulfur content. Fuels that are marked on the gas pump as containing metal must not be used. Fuels with a maximum ethanol content of 10 %, i.e., E10, may be used for refueling. The power and consumption specifications correspond to operation with 98 RON E10 fuel. Knocking noises and driving/acoustic problems may occur when using minimum quality fuel, e.g., 87 AKI, or fuel with an ethanol content of more than 10 % to max. 15 %. These have no effect on the engine service life.
