- gasoline (n.) "lightest volatile liquid obtained from distillation of petroleum," 1864, variant of gasolene (from 1863 in Britain), which apparently was a trade name at first; the -ol probably here represents Latin oleum "oil" and the ending is from the chemical suffix -ine (2). Shortened form gas was in common use in U.S. by 1897. Gas station as a fuel filling station for automobiles recorded by 1924.
