ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a fuel composition capable of suppressing reduction of fuel consumption, maintaining the excellent exhaust gas properties of a Fischer-Tropsch synthetic oil. The fuel composition comprises a Fischer-Tropsch synthetic oil and a petroleum-based hydrocarbon mixture A having the following properties (1) to (5) in an amount of 10 to 30 percent by volume on the basis of the total mass of the composition: (1) 15° C. density: 800 Kg/cm3or greater and 900 Kg/m3or less; (2) 10 volume % distillation temperature (T10): 150° C. or higher and 200° C. or lower; (3) 97 volume % distillation temperature (T97): 270° C. or lower; (4) aromatic content: 40 percent by volume or more and 70 percent by volume or less; and (5) sulfur content: 30 ppm by mass or less.
