Castrol has launched Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluids specifically for use by franchised and independent workshops certified to work on electrified vehicle (EV) powertrains. Available in five-litre packs, the two new products \u2013 in D1 and D2 variants \u2013 suit a wide range of EVs, helping to extend the life of the drivetrain system and enable EVs to go further2<\/sup> on a single charge.<\/p>\n The new product is a high performance and high efficiency fully synthetic fluid for transmissions paired with dry e-motors, offering high levels of gear and bearing protection.<\/p>\n Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluid is part of a broader family of advanced Castrol ON EV fluids. The range includes EV Transmission Fluids, EV Thermal Fluids and EV Greases that help with the mainstream adoption of EVs by helping EVs go further<\/strong>2<\/sup>, charge faster<\/strong>3<\/sup> and last longer<\/strong>4<\/sup>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>Advanced EV Transmission Fluids deliver enhanced protection of the drivetrain<\/strong> and improve efficiency5<\/sup><\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>Two out of three<\/strong> of the world\u2019s major car manufacturers now choose Castrol ON for their factory fill6<\/sup>.<\/p>\n \u201cAs greater volumes of electric vehicles enter the aftermarket, more OEMs have asked us to make an advanced EV transmission fluid available to their workshop partners, to support ongoing repair and maintenance activity,\u201d comments Patrick Bauer \u2013 Castrol Senior Technologist PD Driveline & EV Fluids. \u201cWhile these fluids in some EVs are deemed \u2018fill for life\u2019, workshops need replacement product in the event of a repair, and there can also be a requirement to change the product early to safeguard protection in certain use cases.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have collaborated very closely with OEMs and Tier One suppliers to develop, test and deploy products to meet the required performance criteria,\u201d Patrick Bauer concludes.<\/p>\n In addition to supporting businesses bringing production EVs to market, Castrol has worked with the Jaguar TCS Racing Formula E Team. This means that EV fluid technologies can be pushed and tested on the track before they reach the road.<\/p>\n Castrol aims to be a net zero brand by 2050 or sooner. Castrol ON EV fluids are certified carbon neutral\u00b9.<\/p>\n The launch is aligned with the company\u2019s PATH360 strategy, which aims to help deliver a more sustainable future by saving waste, reducing carbon and improving lives. Castrol is investing in and developing products that support the world\u2019s transition to renewable energy and the wider adoption of e-mobility.<\/p>\n To find out more about Castrol ON please visit castrol.co.uk\/evfluids<\/a><\/p>\n -ENDS –<\/p>\n Notes to editors<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/sup><\/em>1<\/sup><\/em> In accordance with PAS 2060; see <\/em>www.castrol.com\/cneutral<\/em><\/a> for more information<\/em><\/p>\n 2<\/sup><\/em> vs mass market EV factory fill fluid <\/em><\/p>\n 3<\/sup><\/em> vs indirect cooled battery system <\/em><\/p>\n 4<\/sup><\/em> vs standard EV-transmission fluid<\/em><\/p>\n 5<\/sup><\/em> Castrol EV Fluids benefits are demonstrated in bespoke testing and development <\/em><\/p>\n 6<\/sup><\/em> Based on LMCA data for top 20 selling OEMs (total new car sales) in 2019<\/em><\/p>\n Anicecommunication<\/a>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Press Office Castrol Italy<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" First time in Europe that Castrol ON products are available in the aftersales sector Launch of Castrol ON EV Transmission Fluids D1 and D2 \u2013 suitable for many EVs with dry motors All Castrol ON products are certified carbon neutral1 as part of Castrol\u2019s sustainability strategy PATH360<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":15384,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[280,266,71,265],"tags":[282,387,388],"class_list":["post-15382","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-castrol","category-press-room-press-releases-en","category-services","category-anicecommunication-blog-en","tag-castrol","tag-castrol-on","tag-castrol-on-ev-transmission-fluids-d1-and-d2"],"yoast_head":"\n
