petrol

Petrol, also known as gasoline, is a fuel derived from crude oil through refining. It’s a complex mixture of hydrocarbons that powers most internal combustion engines in cars and motorcycles. When burned in an engine, petrol reacts with oxygen to produce energy, enabling vehicles to move. Its composition can vary to optimize performance, efficiency, and emissions. Petrol also contains additives to improve stability and reduce engine wear. It’s stored in tanks and ignited by a spark, making it a vital energy source for transportation, helping us travel and commute efficiently.
