The Perpetual Revolution
Very severe mechanical constraints at circuits and on rallies require an engine lubricant ensuring optimal and constant performance. As a recognised long-standing major motorsport player, Motul benefits from the world’s best laboratory to test its lubricants in the most extreme racing conditions. In 1971, Motul grabbed the limelight when it launched the first 100% synthetic lubricant ever designed for cars: the famous 300V, applying aeronautical technology. Since then, Motul’s R&D department has put its research resources towards continuing re-formulation of its 300V products. This constant evolution allows the 300V range to remain as the motorsport reference point, with two important targets always in mind: increase in power – the main focus in competition – and increased reliability in spite of the ‘downsizing’ phenomenon. © Julien Philippy Technology For several decades, Motul has perfectly mastered the technology of esters. Combining this technology with an optimal selection of high performance synthetic base oils, coupled with an innovative additives package, gives exceptional synergy. This is the latest Motul technological evolution: . Used exclusively in the 300V range, this technology guarantees to obtain maximal performance, over and beyond existing standards.
technology guarantees you more: POWER Reduced internal friction. RELIABILITY High temperature resistance and oil pressure stability. PROTECTION Optimised polarity for maximal adherence of the oil film. LOW LUBRICANT CONSUMPTION Exclusive formulation of low volatility synthetic base oils.
BUBBLE Tag TM
Thanks to the Bubble TagTM, the seal on each tin can of 300V certifies the authenticity of the formulation. Each unique, traceable, three-dimensional ‘bubble code’ gives a digital imprint to each tin can.
