This all depends on the compression of your cars pistons, If you have anything over 10 and you opt. for regular Unleaded you might get pre-ignition in your cylinders which will cause a "PINGING" or "KNOCKING" sound usually high-end cars call for higher octane gas. So unless your car calls for premium fuel stick to regular and save a few bucks.

What happens if you put regular unleaded instead of premium gas by mistake?

If you accidentally put regular unleaded gas instead of premium in a vehicle designed for premium fuel, the car may experience a decrease in performance, such as reduced power and efficiency. In some cases, you might notice engine knocking or pinging due to premature ignition of the fuel. However, if it's a one-time mistake, most modern engines can handle the lower octane without significant damage. It's best to refill with premium gas at your next opportunity.
