Owners manual and the sticker on the gas door says premium required. That's what I use. Premium here is 93 octane. Mileage is mostly 24 to 25.5, mix of city and highway. Highway only is 25 to 30 depending on speed traveled. 75 mph gets 25 to 25.5 mpg.

I'm on 93 octane and get 19-20 average on eco/normal driving in NYC. The best I have seen was 26.7 and that was only 1 time. Lol
