V-Power is available both in petrol and diesel, mine was petrol. No idea if diesel V-Power has proven claims but it should work as the fuel has added nitrous and cleaning agents (detergent chemicals), which should make combustion smoother, faster and make less noise while at it. The fun is when the car is driven just when the tank is topped up, it responds like a go-kart, with noise at higher revs almost non-existent.. shocking. | |

| ![]() Looks like Shell is expanding quite rapidly. Saw a new store being opened just opposite to Hiranandani apartment in Bannerghatta Road. This location very near to me and not crowded at all. Good for me as no need to wait in queues in ORR shell station. But not sure why they have opened this store at this location considering this is but interior. Also there is one more which has come up in ORR just before Central mall in Bellandur |

The link to the Google Map is given below https://www.google.com/maps/place/Nu...1!4d79.0776506 I drive this route at least once in 15 days and i am extremely happy that Shell is available on Highways. | |

| ![]() A Shell fuel station has recently re-opened at Navi Mumbai, and I got my GT TSI filled up with their ULP today. Unlike the experience of others here, there was no pressure to buy V-Power. I am not really as knowledgeable about fuels as most of the other members on this thread, so I started reading up. I have always wanted to try fuel with a higher RON, but neither the manager of the fuel station nor the Shell website could give me that information. Out of interest, I called up Shell customer care, and the executive I spoke to confirmed that both Shell ULP and Shell V-Power are 91 RON. But V-Power is more expensive by almost Rs 8 per liter! ![]() Apologies if the question has already been answered. I did look before posting, but couldn't find any helpful answers. |

https://www.shell.in/motorists/shell...echnology.html Frankly speaking V-power doesn't give as much performance difference as the premium it demands over regular Shell Unleaded. That said, I always prefer Shell Unleaded over Petrol from any other Station. | |

| ![]() Shell Fuel Stations in Bangalore are on an expansion spree. I am seeing so many new stations that have come up and even more newer those are getting constructed. I hope this should bring in price parity with PSU fuel stations. |

This came a surprise and I was wondering where could this be as I didn't find any fuel station coming up on this stretch that was work in progress (and one can easily identify the brand even when it is work in progress). However, surprise surprise....If google maps is to be believed and so the photos tagged to this location, there is indeed a Shell station before Swati Delicacy that requires one to drive 800 meters off NH to access this.

Plus, the satellite image confirms this is the same break in the median where we take a U turn for Swati Delicacy when driving out of Bangalore so it may end up serving the purpose too as one can take right into this road and access the Shell station ![]() | |

| ![]() Saw when I was on my way to the T-BHP meet last weekend that the shell petrol bunk in Rabale, Navi Mumbai has reopened with a small coffee shop as well. As per GMaps its open 24 hours. Location is just after the Rabale police station. Last edited by Lij : 5th March 2019 at 14:16. |
