Last week, the government announced that the price of RON 97 petrol will be floated according to market prices beginning from June 7. This has been initiated according to plan, with the price of the fuel having been revised as of midnight.
As of today, RON 97 is priced at RM2.66 per litre with zero-rated GST – this is an increase of 19 sen over the RM2.47 per litre it has been at since the fourth week of March, when the last price revision of the now-defunct weekly fuel price adjustment mechanism was carried out. The price will be in place till June 13, and there will be RON 97 price announcements made every week.
The price adjustment for RON 97 should also result in related movement for unregulated fuels such as Petron Blaze 100, which was priced at RM3.08 per litre, and Shell V-Power Racing, which was priced at RM3.12 per litre at the last known juncture.
UPDATE: Shell V-Power Racing has had its retail price at the pump increased to RM3.36 per litre, an increase of 24 sen from before. Petron Blaze 100 remains priced at RM3.08 per litre at this point.
There is of course no change to RON 95 and diesel prices, which remain fixed in line with the government’s stand on the matter – RON 95 continues to be priced at RM2.20 per litre and Euro 2M diesel at RM2.18 per litre, while Euro 5 diesel is priced at RM2.28 per litre at the pump.

I just pumped RON 97 last night. I thought the price would come down but the opposite happened.
We don’t know that. But what what we do know is: RON97 skyrocketed by 19 cents. Thank you PH for breaking your promises one by one. We know who we should not vote for next GE.
Tax the rich fuel so no problemo. RON97
Tax or not tax is immaterial. Promises must be kept, otherwise theres no integrity
RON97 for the high-tech turbo cars la. We are ok jer with RON95
Told you all many years. VVTI is the best!
Tak payah pikir, tak payah pening. Beli je P2, jimat petrol…
Mivi engine 1,329 cc wei. Above 1,300 cc subsidy level wei. Manada jimat.
no more RON 97 for my rs150…
Hmm.. you mean the actual market price for Ron 97 is RM 2.66. Wow I thought it will be like RM5 or something like that.
So the Weekly fuelprice guy got fired alredi?
Wow seriously? At least last gov kept the price steady until after raya.
if you’re pumping ron97, you dont need the gov’s assistance.
gov kept ron95 price steady it help low and mid income.
high income pumping ron97 should even get any subsidy. so if you’re pumping ron97, please do your part as high income citizen and contribute to the economy instead of asking for tongkat.
if you’re going to reply saying you’re not of high income, then stop pumping ron95. if you say you car needs ron97, means it’s a high powered car hence means you’re high income. so dont be a retard and shut up.
Mana janji Rm1.50 per liter woi!
Negara byk hutang skrg, jgn la asyik fikir rm1.50 saja. Mana government nak Cari suit utk subsidi begitu byk. U patut syukur HARGA minyak ni maintain kat RM 2.20.
Kalao nak subsidi sampai RM 1.50, Minta la abang jib kao muntah balik $$ yg disonglap.
If you can’t fulfill your promises, then don’t promise it in the first place! That’s bullsh*t!
Furthermore, why should we ask from abang jib when you have instant billionaire sons in your pockets? Ask them to donate 1% is sufficiently enough.
Tats becoz abang jib hide how much our country debt is. Those promises were made based on wat they knew. Shit only uncovered after PH took over, and they r trying very hard to save Ur sorry ass here
Ni lagi bodoh yg mudah dibodohkan.. ni lah uneducated malaysian… Pergi kaji bab hutang negara tu betul2…nanti ko akan bertemu kebenaran.
HAHAHA
Abang Jib kena tiau lagi :P
Kat mana yang kata harga RM1.50. Tak penah wujud dalam manifesto pun. Yang ada harga minyak akan distabilkan & subsidi smp kepada golongan sasaran.
“Ini berbeza dengan Pakatan Harapan (PH) yang telah berjanji akan menurunkan harga minyak ke paras RM1.50 ke bawah.”

Itu bila punya?
Takde kena mengena. Janji takde tarikh luput
si john, say whatever u can say la, your corrupted boss is loser after all. lain kali la!
Jangan janji kalau tidak boleh menunaikan! Kita bukan bodoh!
Of coz it matters, is the value of RM1.50 back then same as the value of RM1.50 right now? If u can buy a bowl of mee RM1.50 back then, can u buy the same bowl of mee RM1.50 right now?
Really? U meant to say Rm1.50 now isnt same as Rm1.50, 6 mths ago? What happened? Oh yeah ur inept gov came in and scared all the investors causing our RM to drop so low that 1.50 now isnt the same as 1.50 half year ago.
Really? Just bash the Gov with more nonsense? Ever heard of inflation?
Inflation can have such huge effects within 6 months? Wow! PH must have gotten world record for the fastest inflation rate ever. Bravo PH! Our money will soon be worthless thanks to u.
My guess your ruler capable to offer RM1.50 per liter as per Ron 92, but will you pump into your khapcai?
Suddenly in New Malaysia, those who complain about about sudden 19sen increase must shut up, while previously those who complain even 1sen increase must be lauded as heroes who willing to speak up. So now our complaints must be clamped and our thoughts must be policed, huh.
New Malaysia is Songsang Malaysia!
those complained 1 sen increase are low and midd income people pumping ron95.
the one complaining now that 19sen increase is high income ppl.
why would gov spend money to help high income people?
dasar dedak tongkat kroni bn
High income? What about those older cars that can only run on RON97? Not everyone can afford to change cars that uses RON95, such as the poor.
Compared to the RON 97 (which is Euro 4 std), RON 95 is the dirty cheap fuel that does nothing good except as another form of dedak for the ppl. Now since ph are in power, pls do something about this for the sake of the environment.
unless you really have knowledge regarding fuel and their burning capacity, stop commenting.
malaysians majority has been pumping ron95 no problem.
wanna act high keras pump ron97. pls pay up and contribute
Before RON 95 was introduced, Malaysian have been using RON 97 for years with cheaper price as well. Back then oil price and RM conversion rate was similar to now but yet its much cheaper. So if u wanna be dumb like macai on dedak pls be my guest.
Since when there is a requirement for a high income person to do my part and provide tongkat to those low income ones?
since forever. why do you think there is a tiered income tax rate depending on your income level, instead of flat rate ?
Syukur……Our Ron 97 is still the cheapest in the region…..
Compare to Brunei ( oil producing country ) , Malaysia ( as an oil producing country ) is still much higher .
Even Venezuela (economy is not that good) is still cheaper than Malaysia by a few times .
When BN was in power Ron 97 was cheaper compare to PH government now.
So Malaysia under PH government is not meant for the Slightly well to do residents. So PH government is for the poor and lower middle class population .
The question is that what contribution does the poor and middle class population offer and can contribute to Malaysia . We know many of them do not pay tax and always want to receive goodies like a parasite to the government . Ironically, many of these poorer population tends to have the most number of children compare to those well to do . Why poor people always have more children compare to those slightly richer population , why ? why? – No family planning or just plain ignorant ( depending on government always without productivities and not living within their means)
Without the rich and above average population , Malaysia depending on poor and middle class population cannot survive that make up the majority of the population
So what is there to offer for the well to do population from PH government beside robbing Paul to pay John always.??
john pls explain the calculation here..
Why ask me? Aint u pipu were condemning previous gov for the formula? So why not u ask ur dear FM LGE?
“lut you! This not your father’s petrol”
Dear all, is the red dye still being used in Ron97? I refilled last night and found the Ron97 being clear. Did I got ripped off?
RON 100 or V-power is ok if never get the subsidy.. but RON 97 should get the subsidy
Government already announced the price revision to start from 7 June 2018, and on a weekly basis every Thursday. RON95 & Diesel prices are fixed until further notice.
You all never read the news ah? If your car really needs RON97 to run, you can afford to pay for the market priced RON97. If poorf*g, just pump RON95.
If you really want to use EURO4M compliant fuel, just tahan and pump RON97 until October 2018, when RON95 must be EURO4M compliant too.
Skipped EURO4M straight to EURO5 for all petrol and diesel please. We want cleaner fuel for our environment please.
Hope the G will stick to the timeline… ron95 must be upgrade to Euro 4 standard by Oct 2018. Make it a cleaner petrol. Better upgrade direct to euro 5.
Most modern engines require clean petrol.. euro 4 is not even adequate anymore. Its should be euro 5 all along.
They dont really need the higher ron petrol (ron97). Most of them will run just fine with ron95 so long it is clean (low sulphur content). They have to pump ron97 coz its the only clean fuel available.
Ron 95 upgrade to euro 4 or 5 is essential to better air quality and reduce air pollution. When this upgrade is done, bet demand for ron 97 will go down significantly.
majority of the malaysians will pump RON 95. so it doesn’t affect many people only those who can afford RON97 onwards.
this a good initiative by PH. those who barely scrap through their monthly expenses yet drives expensive cars that need RON97 onwards will suffer.
Civic FC, pump RON97 or 95?
Both the R18 and L15B7 (1.8 and 1.5T respectively) should be okay on 95 according to the user manual. However, the L15 should benefit a little bit from 97, though it’s up to you to decide if that little benefit is worth the extra.
The K20C1 inside the FK8 Civic Type R is also capable of running on 95, but there’s a catch; to protect against knocking, the peak horsepower is cut by 10 metric horsepower by the ECU.
Negative. Tebo engines runs at much higher temps and using RON95 will risk premature ignition. This can result in engine damage after some time. Deswai its recommended to use RON97 for tebos.
I can see why people do that however, especially since when the FC Civic first came out, there were questions regarding engine heat
Not just Civic FC. All tebo engines runs hotter than NA equivalents. Tebo engines r much more sensitive and repairing it is much more exp.
That’s a good point. Which brings up something, actually.
I was talking to someone from the UK who owned an Evo IX MR FQ360. He remarked that the engine ran so hot that when you stopped and shut off the engine, you could literally see the heat radiating away from the hood easily despite having a head-shield. The car also required RON98 at the minimum as he mentioned that the one time he had to use RON95 in order to get home, his car ran like crap (he put RON98 back in soon after), which is likely due to the high AKI.
I don’t think every engine with forced-induction runs warm to the point of turning the hood into a literal grill like that Evo (though it will probably be warmer than its naturally-aspirated equivalent), but it’s a general rule of thumb that they will run quite a bit warmer, possibly due to the act of compressing the intake air, which increases its temperature (why intercoolers are used). You’re also adding strain to the engine, hence why many cars with high boost applications have beefed up cooling systems.
Just to clarify, the high AKI was probably necessary for his Evo due to its higher boost pressures amongst other things.
Wondering if PT has the option to edit comments when registered, as a side note.
PT only opened membership once many moons ago, what u have here is guest account. If u wanna know whos PT member, see KZM name below in desktop mode. Not sure if still can join.
Thats what those PH goons cant brain and think they r esteemed PT members. Hahaha!
Well that’s annoying. Oh well, I don’t comment much anyway unless it’s important so it doesn’t matter. XD
Aint u honda fanboi? Dun u know what fuel is FC tebo supposed to use?
Bolehland oil producing country n have a lot of resources. price should be cheaper – said by xxxxx
No no more stealing and corruption. Whatever money obtained will be used to settle the 1 trillion debt and mess left to us by the previous highly corrupted Government
“The official Federal Government debt is RM686.8bil (50.8% of GDP).” – LGE
U wait Long Long la, reduce debt. Knn, u DON’T reduce debts by making your local consumption more expensive, u make your EXPORTS MORE COMPETITIVE.
PH dun bluff rakyat…its a schedule repayment..no one ask gov to settle the debt now..previous gov got A- credit rating u know
Price Hikes, I loike! Hahaha
I saw Honda Civic pump Ron 95….and I saw viva pump Ron 97 before….o.O… it’s really up to the consumers to rely on the subsidies or not. I think no point to lower down the diesel/ron 95 price below RM2 since, It WONT changes the currents good price already. Just keep it steady with minimal fluctuation to prevent any excuses from business/enterprise site to increase goods prices. And for Euro Compliances, i think Malaysia government should push it to go for Euro 5 or 5m for Ron 97 and above and Euro 4m for Ron 95, October dateline is near…but none of the fuel provider have any news this…
RM1.50 IS not rakyat asking . but is a promised by PH.
Manifesto sudah dicapatikan lor. Just like someone nick above.
Dear John, If u dont have enough money, let me chia u with ron 95. Rather tuntut promise by PH hey dude u dont even vote for them tho.. Then ShuT UP.. Ur soar loser BN machai.. NO more lui or dedak to eat ahh.. No more pak jib to support give u money ahh pak hang lahh.. Billion2 jibby rob from ur pocket u dont make noise ahh.. If not for that billion2 ur pak jib songlap u’ll surely enjoy petrol 1.50 by now i tell u..
Hahaha! Talk so big, but if not becoz of Najib came out with RON95, u wud be crying when pumping RON97 @ Rm2.66 per liter. All thanks to ur dear leaders.
If you like ur PH so much, dun pump Najibs RON95 and use RON97 instead. Lets see how long u last b4 u cry.
Please stop complaining. Either you drive or don’t drive.
These people still have no idea what high octane fuel does to your car, you dont need it unless you are redlining your engine RPM all the time and it gets hot, some cars have noticeable knocking if too hot because they actually stress the engine, you’re not even a sepang track day guy so pumping RON97 and not using your revs over 5k is PRETTY MUCH USELESS. I bet most of u plebeians only pump 97 and run less than 3k rpm because save fuel then so what for u pump 97 for? If you’re telling me you engine runs quieter on normal basis is because the fuel you’re using is less efficient in regular burning in non-stressing environment therefore you’re only wasting higher octane fuel.
TL;DR you dont need 97 unless u stress your engine alot.
RON 97 is needed when you have turbo-charged engine
Depends on the engine and what the manual specifies.
Some engines run fine on 95 while others strictly need 97. However, since these engines have some form of forced-induction, a higher octane rating may actually benefit these types of engines. Not in an overwhelmingly noticeable fashion but there is a benefit
Older cars oso needs RON97. Most of them will have serious knocking issue if uses RON95, and most of their owners r poor pipu. Just another scheme to make the poor poorer.
Depends on the engine and its characteristics.
Some older cars can get by just fine on 95 and even 91. But older turbocharged cars and high revvers would likely require higher octane.
Another thing to add is that I know of even some much older “normal” cars that require high octane.
Don’t know exactly why though. Higher compression at the time? Early EFI gremlins? Carbs?
Not really too sure why that’s the case though. If it’s a performance car, it is understandable but for a standard commuter, it’s puzzling. Maybe someone who knows more can shed some light.
Not due to fuel requirement but cuz of old engine has more carbon builtup and long use alredi created more uneven contact which increases friction which causes more damages. RON97 has better cleaning & lubricating agents that mitigates the worse effects compared to using RON95.
Actually, RON 97 is needed for high compression engines or forced induction ones running at high boost pressures.
The best advice is still the owners manual. Some cars recommend 95 while others have 95 as the minimum and recommends 97. Others strictly advise using 97 only
janji di capati… HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Semua harapan kah tak harapan kah sama aje cuma muka saja lain. Hehehe
why most people keep saying RON 97 is for high-income and rich ones? Civic 1.5 TCP needs RON 97 okay….. even myvi got people pumpibg RON 97,duhhh
ron 97 is a waste for original factory spec myvi, you only need ron97 if you have spent lots of monies on modded engine or turbo.
and your point is? low income people can afford RM 120000++ car buy not RM2.66 per litter RON97? and high income people can’t buy a myvi?
Actually, the L15B7 inside the Civic 1.5T doesn’t necessarily strictly require the use of RON97 fuel. The engine will run fine on RON95. However, as it is a forced induction engine, there may be a slight benefit when using RON97, but it’s up to you to decide if that is worth it.
As you climb up the performance ladder however, the need for higher octane becomes more and more obvious. Take the K20C1 inside the FK8 Civic Type R. While it will run on RON95, you’ll suffer a power deficit of 10 metric horsepower due to the ECU changing its profile to reduce the likelihood of an engine knock. And when you go even higher, RON97 will become the absolute minimum, which some recommending RON98 and some even wanting E85 to get the most out of the engine.
My polo tsi drink ron95 only
My family 20 year old iswara says ron97 and above on fuel cap. So how? Pump 95 spoil engine. Pump 97 kena say richfag use 97 even though not rich.
Yup, same here. Horrible experience with ron95. Still better than the old crap ron 92,though. My temporary solution is fix the volume top up of 97 and 95. Ratio of 3parts to 1part. Troublesome, but I do it anyway. No more headaches. Involves recording of top up volumes to make this work!
20 year old piece of junk with asean ncap score of -5 should Immediately scrapped and taken off the public roads.
When GST no more, they didn’t reduce the price. Now they increase the price. Why is that? Shouldn’t that at least compensate when they didn’t reduce the price on the 1st?
why this site announcement so slow? not every Wed 6pm anymore?
Price announcements now happen on Thursdays.
Lolz! Semacam sama sama je.
