Virši fuel

What is Virši EVO?

Virši EVO is a diesel that ensures the cleanliness of the car’s engine fuel system, more efficient fuel combustion and 3% more engine power.

What fuel additives are used?

Virši EVO diesel adds multifunctional additives that help keep the engine clean, delivering the manufacturer’s intended engine power and reducing fuel consumption. 
From 1 April to 31 October, a 7% renewable bio-component* is added to diesel.

 

It can be produced according to different technological processes:

  • Rapeseed oil base, which provides cold resistance and is also antibacterial
  • HVO or hydrogenated vegetable oil, produced by the hydrogenation of products such as palm fruit oil, animal and fish fat residues, rapeseed and soybean oil, algae, microbes and other raw materials
     

*Due to the decisions of the Republic of Latvia legislators, this component may not be added.

What is the difference between winter and summer fuel?

Summer diesel can withstand temperatures up to -5 degrees. 


During the winter in Latvia, diesel fuel is divided into three Arctic classes:

  • A0 – clouding temperature -10 degrees; filtration -20 degrees
  • A1 – clouding temperature -16 degrees; filtration -26 degrees
  • A2 – clouding temperature -22 degrees; filtration -32 degrees (this is the most durable winter diesel fuel available in Latvia)

What is the difference between the fuels?

  • •95 and 98 are petrol types derived from crude oil. These petrol types have different octane numbers, which means different ignition temperatures, and each car manufacturer has determined the most suitable type of petrol for their car model. According to EU regulations, a 10% renewable bioethanol component is added to 95 petrol. 
  • DD is also a crude oil product, which is one of the most demanded types of fuel in Latvia. According to EU regulations, a renewable component of 7% is added to diesel fuel, as well as, at the discretion of the trader, functional additives. 
  • AD is agro-diesel or farm diesel. It has the same qualities as diesel fuel, but with a green label to control its distribution, as the purposes of labelled diesel fuel are limited. This fuel is available to farmers at a reduced excise duty. 
  • Heating fuel is marked with a red label, which controls the distribution of the fuel and is subject to a different rate of excise duty.
