Here's why:
* Turbocharged engine: The turbocharger increases the pressure of the air going into the engine, which requires a higher octane fuel to prevent knocking or pre-ignition.
* Engine specifications: The specific engine in your Beetle Turbo will have specific recommendations for fuel in the owner's manual. Always refer to the manual for the most accurate information.
Important Note: Using regular gasoline in a turbocharged engine designed for premium fuel can lead to engine damage and reduced performance.
