Best Answer

Petrol or gasoline is made from the lighter parts of crude oil, and is simply more volatile than kerosene or diesel, because the molecules are smaller. In some countries including the US, the grade of gas is varied winter to summer, to make it volatile enough in cold weather and not too volatile in hot.
