I do know that in the USA the octane number is calculated as RON+MON/2 while in Europe is just RON.
That means roughly that 91octane in the USA is the same as 95octane in Europe.
In general the European equivalent is adding 4 to the American value.
Australia and Canada:What octane calculations standards apply in your countries?
I know I could google for the answers but then I would lose one post and you shall stay in your lazy hibernation.
I'm always looking after you.

Not sure how it compares but most stations here in Canada offer 87 as regular octane and premium as at least 93 octane.
At a little over a dollar a litre I tend to stick to the regular grade.
