Octane rating is the resistance to burning. For example (not real number) a gas with an octane rating of 50 will burn at 100 degrees Fahrenheit whereas a gas with an octane rating of 100 will burn at 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Higher the octane number the harder it is to burn.

If gasoline description is Super Plus then what does the Plus mean?

It means the gasoline blend has a higher Octane. Use the octane that the manufacture recommends for your car. If you are already using the proper octane fuel, you will not obtain more power from higher octane fuels. The engine will be already operating at optimum settings, and a higher octane will have no effect on the management system. Your driveability and fuel economy will remain the same. The higher octane fuel costs more, so you are just throwing money away.
