The Suzuki Celerio is know as the most fuel efficient gasoline car, on Spritmonitor. Compression ratio of my car is 12:1 so higher than many gasoline cars. With the Super E5 I have been driving also very fuel efficient, but the only time I got 30km/L was when the Suzuki dealer added a injection cleaner to the fuel.

Not all Euro 98 gasoline is free of bio-ethanol, but She'll claims their V-Power is. And I think the fuel efficiency is from the lack of bio-ethanol.
My engine is a 10:1 compression ratio naturaly aspirated port injected engine, so I might not realy benefit significantly from the higher octane rating.
Also my ECU is pretty dumb since my car is pretty old.
Also 95 RON E5 is mostly 1,45-1,50€ here most of the time.

I usualy get about 6L/100 km with my 1,8L engine and short gears.
