The disparity in price from premium to regular is because of variable demand shifts and the inherent difference in supply changes because of how each respective grade is produced. Premium and regular are made up of the same substances with different concentrations. 87, 89, 91 and 93 octane have different elasticities of demand so shifts in price impact their demand differently and vice versa
