Tested under real life conditions
Successful customer trials demonstrate that our lower carbon footprint lubricants1 offer the same high performance as the versions containing virgin base oil. For our Castrol VECTON heavy duty engine oils we ran over 37,0002 hours of successful field tests. These included a long drain fleet trial with refuse collection trucks doing 900-1200 stops per day. The result: after 1200h of testing the MoreCircular™ VECTON oil proved excellent wear control and oxidation stability3:

Formula E
In Formula E, the Jaguar TCS Racing team became the first motorsport team to use the Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluid in the Jaguar I-TYPE 6 in a more circular way. Used Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluid was extracted from the race car, re-engineered and blended with performance additives to create a new batch. This re-engineered Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluid was deployed in place of the virgin oil version and successfully used at the 2023 Monaco E-Prix.
The result: the same high performance as the versions made using virgin base oil.
