CASTROL EXPANDS GTX RANGE
A new Renault-approved 0W-20 lubricant is now available
Castrol recently announced the Australian launch of Castrol GTX 0W-20 RN17 FE, expanding its GTX range with a product specifically engineered to meet the latest demands of modern, fuel-efficient engines.
Approved against Renault’s RN17 FE specification, Castrol GTX 0W-20 RN17 FE has been developed to deliver an optimum balance of fuel economy, engine protection, and long-term performance.
Suitable for a broad range of modern vehicles, Castrol GTX 0W-20 RN17 FE is suited to high-performance turbocharged petrol engines – including those in the all-new Mitsubishi ASX – delivering improved efficiency without compromising durability or warranty validity.
For workshops and vehicle owners, Castrol says manufacturer approvals have never been more important.
As engine designs become smaller, more powerful, and increasingly focused on efficiency, lubricants play a critical role in protecting vital components while helping to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
Castrol says the RN17 FE specification serves as a prime example of this shift, requiring a lubricant capable of supporting advanced engine technologies while delivering enhanced fuel economy performance.
The company says the introduction of Castrol GTX 0W-20 RN17 FE reflects the deep and ongoing technical collaboration between Castrol and Renault Group, a partnership that has continued to evolve since Renault selected Castrol as its global aftersales service-fill engine oil lubricants partner in 2020.
Together, the companies have co-engineered a range of lubricants tailored with a shared commitment to developing advanced lubricants capable of meeting increasingly demanding industry standards, including lower-viscosity formulations designed to support future emissions and efficiency requirements.
Castrol GTX 0W-20 RN17 FE is also suitable for use in petrol and diesel vehicles where the manufacturer recommends an ACEA C5 0W-20 lubricant, providing workshops with a versatile product that meets the needs of a growing number of modern vehicles.
