Caltex And Michelin Come Together To Produce New Engine Oils

Malaysian motorists will become the first to be offered a new engine oil by Caltex and Michelin.

Available through Michelin's local partner, Tyreplus, the co-developed engine oil consists of Tyreplus’ Fully Synthetic 5W30, Fully Synthetic 5W40, and Semi-Synthetic 10W40. It will be available across Tyreplus' 70 outlets nationwide starting this June.

Michelin and Caltex, who have been collaborating since 2019, started working on engine oils in 2021. Michelin is confident that Caltex's lubrication technology, Chevron Oronite, will provide a high-quality product for the masses - especially when Tyreplus engine oils are specifically formulated for vehicles in Malaysia. 

Lubricant additives made by Chevron Oronite help to dissolve deposits, inhibit corrosion, control oxidation, and reduce friction and wear. Their products also use the latest technology and research to help maximize engines' reliability, efficiency, and lifespan of your engine.
