Propel Diesel HPR
Has anyone used Propel Diesel HPR? I received a brochure stating that this new fuel meets the ASTM D975 diesel specification (ULSD) for use in all diesel engines, and it is not biodiesel.
I'm tempted to use this new diesel, but not sure if it will void the manufacturer's warranty. I have a 2016 GLE 300d.

Has anyone used Propel diesel HPR in their Bluetec / CDI engines? Given the significant CO2 / NOx / Particulate reduction, i'd really like to use this going forward. Just found out about it yesterday!

Performance
Performance formulated Diesel HPR has a cetane rating up to 75+, 40% higher than regular diesel, for smoother combustion and a better ride. Diesel HPR combusts more efficiently, which means more power and torque for your rig. And unlike biodiesel, Diesel HPR provides uncompromised cold weather performance. Diesel HPR is additized to provide excellent lubricity in all driving conditions and exceeds ULSD lubricity specification.
