From crude we process 3 types of fuels, gasoil(distillate oil), gasoline and kerosene.
Gasoil:
Distillate oil number 2 is of a quality that diesel engines can use almost without further additives or processing. Atmospheric Gas Oil - AGO can be used at least in the summer. But for the winter you need additives to make it flow and also avoid that water condensate in the tank freeze and blocks the flow. The main use of gasoil is for heating and production of electricity.
Automotive diesel is produced for cars according to national specifications such as EN590, registered with ISO.
Gasoline:
Gasoline needs further processing at the refinery, where it is "reformed" to the correct octane rating. This deserves its own answer. With the correct additives, gasoline is used by propeller planes. Another name for gasoline is petroleum or used "petrol". Gasoline or petrol is produced according to national variants of ISO specifications just as diesel.
Kerosene:
Kerosene is used as light oil, but as fuel it is used as fuel for jet planes. Jetfuel is produced to national variants, the biggest difference is between military and civilian fuel.

the only ones I'm aware of are ethanol-gasoline and biodiesel
In China, the main types of fuels used are coal, petroleum, natural gas, and renewables such as hydroelectric, wind, and solar power. Coal has historically been the dominant fuel source, but the country is increasing its use of natural gas and renewables to diversify its energy mix and reduce pollution.
Gas and diesel. The electric used is created from one of these two fuels.
Fuels can be broadly categorized into three types: fossil fuels, renewable fuels, and nuclear fuels. Fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, are derived from ancient organic matter and are the most commonly used energy sources. Renewable fuels include biomass, biofuels, solar, wind, and hydropower, which are sustainable and can be replenished naturally. Nuclear fuels, primarily uranium and plutonium, are used in nuclear reactors to generate energy through nuclear fission.
oil, petrol is oil
Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), mostly, or electricity generated by burning them.
