gasóleo


Explanation:
«Gasóleo» es el término correcto en español.
Gas-oil y gasoil son anglicismos que deben evitarse.
¡Ojo!, la grafía correcta es con mayúscula inicial para «Diesel».
Tomado del Diccionario de los usos correctos del español, de Zorrilla.
Estoy de acuerdo con que en Argentina se usa «gasoil», pero no sé quienes son tus lectores.
¡Suerte!
