Shell And Maserati Co-Branded Motor Oil

Shell and Maserati are introducing a new co-branded motor oil known as Pennzoil Platinum Racing Maserati 10W-60. The new product is now the only recommended motor oil on all Maserati’s 2018 and 2019 models that are equipped with the V6 gasoline engine.

This new co-branded motor oil is part of Shell’s ongoing deal with Maserati as its exclusive lubricants supplier, which runs until 2020. Maserati’s 2018 and 2019 cars (V6 gasoline engine) will get a first fill of the new product from the production lines in Modena and Turin, Italy. The product also will be available as refills at any one of the more than 450 authorized Maserati dealerships around the world.

Maserati says that its discerning customers can be confident that their vehicles are continuously serviced with a high-quality motor oil manufactured by Shell to provide Maserati’s engines with high performance and engine protection throughout the car’s lifespan.

“After the successful collaboration put in place for 5W-40, Maserati and Shell worked again together to develop a new co-branded motor oil specifically formulated and tested to optimize the power of our engines. Shell shares with us the same commitment to provide outstanding performances with passion for excellence and innovation, that’s why we chose their technical excellence for our cars,” said Rosberto Mcginnis, head of Maserati Parts & Service, Maserati Spa.

The fully synthetic premium engine oil is specially formulated to meet the engine requirements of Maserati’s engines. Pennzoil Platinum Racing Maserati 10W-60 uses Shell’s unique gas-to-liquid-based PurePlus Technology and is designed in collaboration with Maserati to meet the technical needs of their engines. The motor oil is formulated to further optimize the performance of Maserati engines by stabilizing lubricity under extreme temperatures and providing excellent oxidation protection. In layman’s terms, this means better engine protection against wear and corrosion.

Pennzoil Platinum was first launched in 2014, and, along with the launch, Pennzoil brought back its “Yellow Submarine” IndyCar. Here is Helio Castroneves with more about the Yellow Submarine and Pennzoil Platinum motor oil:
