Shell has officially launched its new range of fully-synthetic motor oil formulated with innovative patented Shell PurePlus Technology called the Helix Ultra.

The new Shell Helix Ultra has now been enhanced to meet the needs of the latest engines. It now combines Shell PurePlus Technology with the company’s proprietary Active Cleansing Technology to deliver higher levels of protection against build-up of engine deposits and unsurpassed sludge protection.

This new Shell Helix Ultra is made from natural gas with patented Shell PurePlus Technology. This pure, clear base oil enables Shell to develop superior lubricants. Active Cleansing Technology has always been at the heart of Shell Helix. The unique combination of Shell PurePlus Technology with Active Cleansing Technology enables Shell Helix Ultra to deliver even higher levels of cleansing and protection, meaning that no other motor oil keeps your engine closer to factory clean. On top of keeping the engine clean, Shell Helix Ultra also helps remove sludge left behind with inferior oils.

New enhanced Shell Helix product range

“Innovation is in our DNA – it’s all about making things better than before. Shell Helix Ultra is our most advanced motor oil yet and part of the smarter product range,” said Troy Chapman, Cluster General Manager, Southeast Asia, Shell Lubricants. “With this new range, we are offering the very latest motor oil technology and innovation, for the latest cars. The products meet the most modern industry specifications and have received approvals from leading vehicle and engine manufacturers across the world. Indeed, the product is being widely used as factory-fill oil by vehicle manufacturers, including Ferrari. This means that drivers who seek a high quality motor oil to deliver the best performance from their vehicle can be confident in their choice.”

In addition to enhanced cleansing, Shell Helix Ultra provides superior wear and corrosion protection which can help to extend engine life and reduce maintenance costs.

Apart from that, drivers can also benefit from improved fuel economy, as some products within the Shell Helix Ultra range can help to deliver up to 1.4% greater fuel economy.

Alongside the launch of this new top-tier smarter product range, the Shell Helix core portfolio has been restructured to help drivers more easily identify which is the best lubricant for their vehicle. The comprehensive line of multi-fuel passenger car motor oils ranges from mineral oils Shell Helix HX3 and HX5, to HX6 and HX7 oils with synthetic technology, to the fully-synthetic and top-of-the-range Shell Helix Ultra. The Shell Helix core portfolio is designed to meet the requirements of the majority of original equipment manufacturers or OEMs, as well as the most modern industry specifications.

Product specifications have been upgraded to exceed most, if not all, of the technical requirements fulfilled by the previous Shell Helix portfolio. As part of the portfolio enhancement, redesigned product labels will make product identification simpler and quicker. Information such as viscosity grade and fuels stability are clearly visible, to allow drivers to easily identify the oil that best suits their requirements. On top of that, the labels now feature QR codes that link directly to supporting information that can help drivers to learn more about their motor oil.

In conjunction with the introduction of the enhanced Shell Helix portfolio, Shell Lubricants also took the opportunity to launch the 2014 Shell Helix “The Ultimate Ferrari Experience” global promotion.
