I have a 2008 Subaru Impreza hatchback 1.5L, should I use 91 or 95? Considering it’s now a recent model, i think 91 will not do any damage to the car ?

Hi there,
Subaru recommend the use of 95 octane in these vehicles, however 91 is able to be used with generally little noticeable difference.

Hi Cade, thank you for the answer ! Just another question, is the car AWD or FWD?

Hi there,
The 1.5ltr is front wheel drive.
