Is the car stock? If it has aftermarket parts, or has a chip or has been tuned it may be running rich and thats the fuel you are smelling. Does the car run fine? If you are running dumps I can understand, if your previous car was a prius i can also understand why you think it smells lol. Little more info about the car please
