In this country, there was often summer gas (E0) and winter gas (E10), particularly in urban areas. This was to give everyone a lean mixture in the winter time to reduce carbon monoxide emissions. Mind you, this only really worked on carbureted vehicles. Fuel injected vehicles (at least the 99% of those with a Lambda sensor) will just throw more fuel in to get the mixture right.
Carbureted vehicles shouldn't experience much change in consumption but modern FI vehicles will.
