Sans Plomb is your Radio Trivia Answer
Gasoline -- Known in France as essence, gas is expensive for those accustomed to North American prices. All but the least expensive cars usually require an octane rating that the French classify as essence super, the most expensive variety. Depending on your car, you'll need either leaded (avec plomb) or unleaded (sans plomb).

When in France I've always heard petrol referred to as 'Benzin' and diesel reffered to as 'Gasoil'.
