Motul Reformulates 300V Engine Oil


From racing, to high-performance cars, one name has been synonymous with success for the last 50 years: Motul 300V. Now, Motul has launched a new and improved version of its flagship product, with a formulation that pushes the boundaries of performance.

Aptly revealed at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the most iconic racing event in the world, the new 300V was developed to help racing teams accomplish maximum performance and reliability. 

Originally launched in 1971, its name is a tribute to the 300 raving victories achieved by the time of its launch. Since then, the Motul 300V has gone on to help countless more to victory.

Fifty years after its first launch, Motul has unveiled the latest evolution of its benchmark lubricant: the new Motul 300V range. The new Motul 300V brings many improvements:
  • Improved performance: The new Motul 300V racing oil improves engine performance by reducing internal friction. This new formulation ensures proven power and torque gains across the whole power band.
  • Better reliability: Motul 300V protects engines without compromising performance, by providing high shear stability for maximal oil film resistance, even in most extreme conditions.
  • Improved compatibility: Motul 300V now fulfills modern engine requirements: compatible with exhaust gas after-treatment systems such as particulate filters, compatible with biofuels (especially ethanol), and protects against Low Speed Pre-Ignition (on downsized engines).
  • More sustainable: Motul 300V features Organic base stocks using non-fossil renewable materials limiting the environmental impact and allows Motul to lower its carbon footprint by 25 percent during manufacturing process.
The new 300V Engine Oil range is split into three major series: Power, Competition, and Le Mans.
  • Power features the lightest viscosity grades, available from 0W-8 to 5W-30. It brings the maximum power and can cope with engines subject to low oil fuel dilution.
  • Competition features mid viscosity grades, available from 0W-40 to 15W-50. It brings the best compromise between power and reliability, and can cope with engines subject to mid oil fuel dilution.
  • Le Mans offers the maximum engine protection possible and is available in thicker 10W-60 and 20W-60 viscosities. It is perfect for extreme motorsport applications such as endurance racing and drifting. Adding to its uniqueness is the fact that they are the only engine oils to bear the prestigious 24 hours of Le Mans name.
