Re: Pretty cool ..2011 Hyundai Sonata 2.0T First Drive

Too bad they didn't make it optimally tuned for premium but with the option to run 87-octane if you're a cheapass and don't want to spend a measly $2 to get the most out of the car.

LOL... You didnt read the article..

"While the durability testing included 87 octane fuel, engineers hint that the calibration of the 2.0T will automatically take advantage of higher octane — on premium fuel, peak horsepower goes up by about 10. And although peak torque is unaffected by the addition of premium fuel, the area of torque curve before the peak is said to plump up somewhat."
