Shell vs Petronas vs BHPetrol: Which Gives You The Most Mileage?

  • Опубліковано 9 лип 2023
  • So we are putting an end to this legendary debate about which fuel gives you the most mileage. To do this we secured three Honda City's from Honda Malaysia, got them serviced to ensure all cars ran on new lubricants so drag resistance is the same. We also ensured that tyre pressure was the same and then hit the road tackling different terrains. All of this just to finally answer the biggest debate among motorists, which fuel takes you further?

    I'm a scientist and have done fuel development for most of my life. Fuel economy testing is the most difficult challenge during fuel development. What was done here is quite meaningless, because the conditions were not controlled. The variation between cars is generally bigger that the expected fuel economy differences.
    Hybrid cars are the worst choices for differences, because the complexity of the drive train introduces too many extra variables.
    In-car fuel consumption measurement systems are approximate and in no way sufficiently accurate.
    BHP has no fuels R&D.
    Shell claim 15km more per tank, not per liter.
    From a scientific perspective, this data is insufficiently accurate to draw any conclusion!
    A side comment: Please drive safely, don't block the middle lane, when not overtaking!

      Thank you for your comment. We didnt want a controlled environement since we were not coming up with marketing claims. This was more of real life conditions where all cars traversed the same routes at the same time. The cars were also equalised as much as possible in terms of engine wear, tyre conditions, fuel in the fuel line, etc. And yes hybrids are challenging hence why we chose to use 3 of the same cars and swapped cars so as to minimise any impact from a driver’s preferred driving style. We tried to minimise everything from a real world perspective. It’s nothing that would impress a scientist but we did not set out to do that. Thank you but We stand by our content and the efforts of our team.

      The only way to determine differences between these fuels would be in a controlled environment, where all variables are minimized as much as possible. What is measured there is direct transferable to the reality. Real world condition will not give you meaningful results and could mislead consumers and good journalism should protect consumers.
      I’m happy to have a discussion with you guys over a tetarik, to give you some more background.

    i have done this kind of test with my Myvi AV 2023. Full tank for Petronas/Shell/BHP/Petron.. what I can say for each brand is:
    Petronas gives the cleanest fuel for my engine but not the longest distance
    Shell cannot prove 15km through my driving experience, but the pump nozzle is fast.
    BHP, I won't use this brand for my car after testing it. Slow reaction.
    Petron give me an average driving experience, accelerate quite good but my mechanics said better to not use this fuel for my car.
    my mechanics claimed that petronas is a better fuel for my car engine if we use Syntium as an engine oil as well. Overall. i stick with petronas

    now upgrade rim 17inci standart-tayar MC6 205/45/17 - petrol RM70 can go range 550-580km only ☺️😅 why coz rim 17 is so heavy under 11kg for 1 rim.

    To make it more scientific you should:
    1. Drain the fuel at the start. I doubt the tank was empty at the start
    2. Weigh the car before fueling
    3. Weigh the car after fueling
    4. Weigh the car after the trip
    Reality though, all fuel come from the same distribution point in Malaysia. I would say the variable is based on how a person drives and additive blends. How 'hard' one presses, verocity of pedal presses during corners, how much you brake, etc. All are variables.

    10% drop in mileage is also observed in my 2008 CRV 2.0L for Shell and Petronas. Needed to call out Shell for Fuelsave 95 as a scam in their marketing tactics. Had a friend working in Shell Finance. Mentioned that it's all about the additives, and Shell is shelling out poor quality fuel esp RON95. Didnt mention about RON97 😂

    Good video. But I would suggest more, to exclude those uncontrolled variables, what you could do is do a round trip like this.
    1. Start from each brand petrol station, with full tank petrol, use the same petrol dispenser kiosk, refill until clicked, no overfill etc.
    2. Reset trip odo, and Start the journey.
    3. Return to the same petrol station, same kiosk, refill again until clicked, get the total odo travelled divide by total litre of fuel poured in.
    I think that's how to get better measure on km/l. The computer reading I would say it really subject to how the computer calculate the readings.
