Yes -
• RON 95 can be used for normal driving.
• RON 98 is recommended for optimum performance
and minimum fuel consumption

While it says that regular can be used, it is quite definite that premium is recommended for stated reasons. Whether that means the car "needs" premium is an interesting discussion point.

I do wonder why "optimum performance" and "minimum fuel consumption" are considered not normal driving. I guess we really need quantitative comparisons including on the well-being of the engine.
