A specialist engine-oil brand built on decades of PETRONAS Lubricants International engineering expertise, innovation and close collaboration with leading vehicle manufacturers.

Over the past three decades, automotive technology has undergone significant transformation. Engines have become smaller and more efficient, emissions requirements have tightened and hybrid technologies have become increasingly widespread. As these changes have reshaped vehicle design, they have also transformed lubricant requirements.

SELENIA, the engine oil brand from PETRONAS Lubricants International (PLI), has refined its formulations to support new performance, protection and efficiency demands.

Originally developed as Fiat’s engine oil, SELENIA has built decades of expertise through close collaboration with vehicle manufacturers. This longstanding OEM relationship remains central to the brand’s development approach, helping ensure lubricants are tailored to the specific demands of modern engines.

Today, SELENIA offers a comprehensive portfolio covering Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Abarth, Peugeot, Citroën, DS Automobiles, Opel and Vauxhall vehicles. The range fully supports the latest harmonised Stellantis specifications.

This is particularly relevant as workshops navigate a growing mix of engine architectures, emissions-control technologies and OEM requirements. Selecting the correct lubricant has become a critical factor in supporting engine durability, efficiency and long-term performance.

SELENIA’s technical development has also been shaped by decades of motorsport experience, where engine protection, reliability and performance are tested under extreme conditions. Combined with PETRONAS Fluid Technology expertise, lessons learned in competition continue to inform lubricant development for today’s vehicles.

Giuseppe Pedretti, Regional Managing Director EMEA at PETRONAS Lubricants International, said:

“Thirty-five years in the market reflects SELENIA’s ability to remain relevant as vehicle technologies continue to change. Built on decades of OEM collaboration and technical expertise, the brand continues to support a broad spectrum of Stellantis vehicle applications through formulations aligned with the latest specifications. As workshops face growing complexity, that combination of coverage, technical knowledge and engine-care expertise remains as important as ever.”

After 35 years, SELENIA’s focus remains unchanged: combining OEM expertise, advanced lubricant technology and a passion for engines to help workshops and motorists meet the demands of modern vehicles.
