It's been a busy few weeks here in terms of covering the automotive industry in Malaysia. One of the new product launches held last week was the launch of the all-new Castrol POWER1 motorcycle engine oil. Castrol Malaysia launched this new product by unveiling a total of four new variants which according to them have been tailor made to suit a motorcycle's special demands.
The new Castrol POWER1 oil is said to have better performance as a direct result of improved technology and product specification upgrade. The four new variants that were introduced are Castrol POWER1 Cruise 4T 15W-50 1L, Castrol POWER1 Racing 4T 10W-40 1L, Castrol POWER1 Scooter 4-AT 5W-40 1L and 10W-40 1L.
Tagging along with the launch of the new POWER1 products, two existing variants were also relaunched with new improved formulations, namely the Castrol POWER1 4T 10W-40 1L and Castrol POWER1 Racing 4T 10W-50 1L.
Castrol Malaysia says that its new Castrol POWER1 with Power Release TechnologyTM, optimises friction which in return provides motorcycle enthusiasts with faster, more superior acceleration at the twist of the throttle. In a 5.2km 3-stage acceleration test using 101kW 4-cylinder supersports engine, the new Castrol POWER1 10W-40 is 6.6 seconds quicker than a competitor 10W-40 and 2.8 seconds quicker than the previous formulation. This is what Castrol Malaysia has stated in their press release of course, you guys have to try it out to see how true this is!
Keow Mei-Shan, Marketing Director of Castrol Malaysia said “We are constantly evolving to keep abreast with the needs of our consumers. The new Castrol POWER1 range is the direct effect of that very initiative. What remains at the forefront is our focus in continuously offering the best – Whether it’s an entirely new range or an improved formula, it comes with years of expertise and thorough research”
While the new Castrol POWER1 is engineered to offer superior acceleration at the twist of the throttle, the new Castrol POWER1 SCOOTER with Scootek TechnologyTM is also designed to offer superior acceleration at 'the mere touch of the throttle' (again, this is what the press release states folks...of course, new engine oils are designed to be better than the ones they replace. They usually are)
The Castrol POWER1 CRUISE with Power Sustain TechnologyTM is engineered to combat heat and friction in big bikes, ensuring continuous power delivery during long rides. For larger, more powerful bikes, the design brief is slightly different. Larger, more powerful bikes would need a smoother power delivery and not something abrupt, like needed in smaller bikes.
Understanding that smooth acceleration is crucial among different types of motorcycles, the new Castrol POWER1 line caters to riders across different bike segments who are faced with ever-changing traffic conditions, in ensuring continuous top performance.
