Different methods of rating octane - MON ('Motor') vs RON ('Research') - different testing standards.
US used to use RON back in the '60s, now uses AKI which is the average of the two, MON typically much lower than RON. 91AKI = approx 95RON.
EU and maybe much of the world uses RON.
Locally we've got a few Unocal stations that sell 100 at about $4.10/gallon. Otherwise, California tops out at 91AKI.
