Castrol has unveiled new branding for its line of synthetic oils, as well as multiple new claims surrounding performance and protection.
The news comes during Castrol’s 125-year anniversary.
Oil Change Interval Increased on EDGE Extended Performance
Castrol EDGE Extended Performance, the brand’s most advanced synthetic motor oil, has a new oil change interval of up to 25,000 miles.
According to a news release, Castrol EDGE Extended Performance is the only engine oil to meet all three key industry specifications: API, GM dexos Gen3 and ACEA C2/C5.
Flagship Synthetic Motor Oil Brands Relaunched
Castrol is simultaneously relaunching its three flagship synthetic 'stronger for longer' motor oil brands that now include new oil change intervals:
Castrol GTX Full Synthetic - 10,000-mile oil drainage interval
Castrol EDGE - 20,000-mile oil drainage interval
Castrol EDGE Extended Performance -with a 25,000-mile oil drainage interval
“For 125 years, Castrol has been pushing the boundaries of innovation to deliver superior performance and protection, and we are thrilled to add these industry-leading claims to that extensive list,” Castrol Americas President & CEO Andreas Osbar said. “Our goal is always to exceed our customers’ expectations, and with our synthetic motor oils we are doing exactly that.”
The oils now provide fleet vehicles with more miles of protection and performance. Castrol noted that research showed extended oil change intervals are viewed as indications of quality and durability by drivers, rather than a reason to change their typical oil change behavior.
