Chevron Gasolines with Techron®

Chevron makes four grades of gasoline to meet all the needs of Canadian drivers. Each grade has a different octane rating represented by a number which is printed clearly on the pump and nozzle handle.

Chevron Regular has an octane rating of 87, Chevron Plus 89, Chevron Supreme 92 (91 outside of Greater Vancouver and Vancouver Island) and Chevron Supreme Plus 94. 

Techron®

Techron®  is Chevron's unique deposit control additive used in all Chevron gasolines to help your car perform at its best with lower emissions. Virtually every car on the road can benefit from using Chevron gasolines with Techron® . Only Chevron gasolines have the patented Techron® technology.

Only Chevron gasolines have Techron®. You can get the performance and environmental benefits of Techron® in all grades of Chevron gasolines – Regular, Plus, Supreme and Supreme Plus. The Supremes contain more Techron® to help clean up deposits faster. No other gasoline can give you Chevron’s Techron® formula which provides unbeatable performance and lower emissions.

Techron® helps protect and maintain your car’s performance. Lower quality gasolines can leave harmful deposits in your car’s engine. As these deposits accumulate over time, your car may begin to hesitate and stumble during acceleration, or it may begin to knock or lose power. Chevron gasolines with Techron® are unbeatable at cleaning up and avoiding deposits. There is no better way for you to protect and maintain your engine’s performance than by using Chevron gasolines with our Techron® additive.

Techron® helps your car run with the lowest possible emissions. Unlike some gasoline additives, Techron® does not contribute to harmful deposits in your car’s combustion chamber – deposits that can cause higher emissions. If you are concerned about a cleaner environment, Chevron gasoline with our Techron® additive is a responsible choice over lower quality gasolines.

Supreme gasolines have even more Techron® . In addition to higher octane, our Supremes have more of our Techron® additive to give you an even faster clean up of injectors and intake system deposits left by lower quality gasolines.

In fact, the "Big 3" automakers use Chevron gasolines with Techron® to help their engines pass the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) emission system durability test.

Try Techron® Concentrate if you can’t always use Chevron gasolines. Our Techron® technology is also available in bottled concentrate for a burst of cleaning power.

So, if you can’t always use Chevron gasolines with Techron® to keep your engine clean, try Techron® Concentrate. Just one bottle every 5000 kms can clean up deposits left by lower quality gasolines that may contribute to hesitation, engine knock or run on.

Exactly what is Techron® anyway? Techron® is Chevron's latest representative of a family of compounds, called polyether amines, that are highly effective at fighting deposits in an engine's intake system and at avoiding contribution to combustion chamber deposits. Sixteen years ago, after discovering that these compounds were effective deposit control additives, Chevron patented them and has been reformulating and improving them ever since. There are many Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) technical papers, peer-reviewed by the industry, that talk about the benefits of polyether amine deposit control additives versus other types of additives.

Could my car benefit from using Chevron Supreme gasoline with Techron® ? Chevron Supreme gasolines with Techron® can maximize performance in cars designed to use high octane gasoline. High octane Chevron Supreme gasolines can give these cars faster acceleration or quieter performance than lower octane gasolines. No premium gasoline sold will give your high performance vehicle more power than Chevron Supreme gasolines with the Techron® additive.

Why should I buy Chevron gasoline over lower quality gasolines? Techron® , the special ingredient in all Chevron gasolines, makes them unbeatable at helping your car perform at its best and with the lowest possible emissions. Virtually every car on the road will give its best possible performance and lowest possible emissions using Chevron gasolines with Techron® .

Lower quality gasolines can leave harmful deposits in your car's engine. As these deposits accumulate over time, your car may begin to hesitate and stumble during acceleration, knock, or lose power. Chevron gasolines with the Techron® additive are unbeatable at cleaning up and avoiding deposits. There is no better way for you to protect and maintain your engine's performance than by using Chevron gasolines with Techron® . That's what we mean by unbeatable performance.

All the major oil companies say their gasoline is great. Why should I buy Chevron gasoline? When North American auto manufacturers design and build a new engine and emissions control system in the United States, they know they must prove to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that the car can go a long way and still operate with very low emissions. That's why all three major U.S. auto manufacturers use only Chevron gasoline with the Techron® additive to help their new engines pass the tough EPA 80,000 and 160,000 kms emission system durability tests. They buy and use only Chevron unleaded gasoline, even though they must purchase the Chevron unleaded gasoline in Kentucky and pay to truck it all the way to the Detroit area, because Chevron does not market gasoline in close proximity to Michigan.

What's different about the Techron® additive compared to other oil companies' gasoline additives? Most other oil companies use deposit control additives in their gasoline that do an adequate job in the engine's in-take system, but many of these additives contribute to combustion chamber deposits. Excessive combustion chamber deposits can cause an engine to need a higher octane gasoline to avoid knock and run-on, plus can cause higher emissions of nitrogen oxides. In contrast, Chevron's exclusive deposit control additive, Techron® , provides intake system deposit control performance superior to many other additives, plus avoids contribution to harmful combustion chamber deposits.
