Shell V-Power Nitro+

Its just marketing. Petrol industry insider would tell you petrol is petrol is petrol.

It is true, technically called MHP. Mental Horse Power

92 gives -20%,

95 is neutral,

98 gives +20%,

Vpower turns car into F1 car.

In that case, my MHP says MY Ron97 FTW!!!

[flashbang]

Cannot felt the difference between the "Old" V-Power & the "New" one...

Just wondering,if a Petrol company launch a "New" product,let's say in this case V-power on the 18'th,will the stations 'suck' out fully the "Old" V-Power,on the 17'th night,then fill with the new stuff.?Or just refill the "new" products.? [:(]with the "Old" ones.?

 

Seems like tough work. In fact, who knows what you're getting from the pumps... maybe all 3 pumps are coming from the same tank

[evilviser]

It's just another marketing tactic lah. In addition, I feel Shell V-Power "burn" faster than Caltex 95 which I regularly pump.

yesterday pumped v power, got free gift

 

for me, I feel less vibration when I pump 98 or v power.

In other words, I agree with the 2nd pic above, v power reduce friction.

 

Honda car (both civic n accord, don't know other model) steering wheel tends to vibrate when the aircon compressor kicks in when idling.

Pumped $100 of V-Power this morning. Travelled around 50km today. Noticed steering wheel has less vibration during idle. Seems better in pick-up and have to step slightly harder than usual on brake to stop after acceleration

So the main effect is that it spoils the brakes?

I have been pumping shell petrol for almost 10 years. Tried 95, 98 and v power. Never felt any difference in performance or car behavior. Been using app to track fc but no diff in fc between the 3 different petrol either.

 

My body and my cars are just not sensitive enough. Previous 1.3 and current 1.6t engine. So I just happily pump 95.

The interviewer did the right thing If you have stayed there, you would at most be a manager after many many years and not be a rich elite like what you are now

Yesterday, i pumped V power racing at last rest stop before 2nd link. I only pay about MYR 120 for 1 full tank.

You song, I buay song.

 

Seriously, V power racing has made my M135i misfire before. Petronas 97 gave no issues on any car...ever.

 

May just be a one-time thing, but I probably wouldn't fill up on Shell there again, unless I am at risk of being stranded.

 

In SG, of course, any fuel of the correct RON is OK. But Bolehland is a cowboy land, got to be a little bit leery.
