Castrol India Limited recently launched Castrol RX Super Max Fuel Saver, in association with the country’s largest commercial vehicle original equipment manufacturer (OEM), Tata Motors Limited.
Castrol RX Super Max Fuel Saver, coengineered by Castrol India and Tata Motors, is designed to increase the fuel efficiency of Tata trucks by 1.5 per cent (over SAE 15W40 engine oil of similar performance credentials) and save substantial amounts of diesel.
The Indian commercial vehicle industry is becoming more conscious of TCO, which includes not just the capital cost but also the operating cost. Diesel cost constitutes just over 50 per cent of the TCO and the constant increase in diesel prices is cause of concern. Castrol RX Super Max Fuel Saver has the potential to save almost Rs 20,000 per annum for a truck which travels about 100,000 kms during a year.
