You probably know this, but, for forced air induction, a higher octane allows allows the electronic nannies to fool around and maximize power.
Google Petro Canada 94 to find stations that carry it. Surprisingly quite a few.

Good stuff for a track day but you'll get terrible fuel mileage with it. AFAIK shell 91 has no ethanol so it's the best for mileage.

You are absolutely right. The energy density of ethanol is less than straight gas, without doing the math, mileage drops, power is up. That is the cost $ of making more power with what we have available in Canada at the pumps. But then I didn't buy a ZL1 for mileage .... just performace and grins every time I dig into the loud peddle. I am a HP addict.
BTW, Suncor claims that 91 contains zero ethanol and 94 Ultra 10%. Google , ethanol in Ultra 94, for a customer service reply to ethanol content question.

V8 A8. Cruise control, set to 101KM/h. Drove 50+KM on QEW, on the outside lane. Only had to slow down for shitty mergers a couple of times.

Using stock Goodyear tires, set to recommended pressure, and sipping on Shell V-Power. A/C on, single occupant.

I tried the same my 2005 Corolla, and couldn't hit that number. Granted, that car only has a 4-speed tranny, but also 2600lb and 1.8L 4-banger. Camaro's highway MPG really impresses me.

[stocksucks!!]

In town I get 21 L/km and she’s all stock zl1 a10 and has 9500km
It’s the same in town mileage as my 1 ton twin turboed Cummins

My V8 manual will go down into the 6 L/100 range on cruise control at 100-120 also. Very impressive!

That cylinder reduction is nice as hell.nmy best average on my 2.0T was 6.1 and I normally go more in the high 6s.

Need to fill with 87 once to see if average decreases cause I only fill with 91.

22.9L/100km is what I saw the other day. Pretty sure that’s what I read. The car was sliding back and forth when I noticed it.
I’ll have to look again next time I start ramming air down it’s throat.

Sorry to butt in the Canadian sub-section.
EU Camaro SS 2018. Getting 13,7 - 14 L/100km on average over the current life of the car (9400 km). Mostly country roads, some highway and city. Running on 95 RON.

And what's the ZL1 average in mixed driving, when driving like a sane person?

I would try to give you an answer but I am crazy about acceleration.
As you can see from the pic, I must of been going sideways at the time. Trip A is my full mileage from the dealer to now.

good stuff everyone! For sure long highway cruising can be in the 6-7L/100km range. sometimes i wish i drove on the highway more to have better l/100k lol, past couple weeks I've been around 13.5-14L/100 mainly city

🤔. I don’t know to be honest.😁
When I pick the car up I’ll look.
