Shell has recently launched a new scooter oil that is specially designed for four-stroke scooter engines called the Shell Advance AX5 15W40 Scooter Oil.
This scooter oil is designed to protect scooter engine in high-stress, stop-start city commuting environments. It features Shell’s innovative technology that promises reliable oil performance, better control via smoother gear changes and higher enjoyment through a low vibration and quieter ride.
Troy Chapman, Cluster General Manager, Southeast Asia, Shell lubricants said that the Shell Advance AX5 15W40 Scooter Oil was formulated with the needs of bikers, specifically scooter owners, in mind.
“The key is a special antioxidant additive that helps removes deposits and maintain viscosity and, thus, keep the oil in peak condition for longer. As a result, you can enjoy every ride with confidence as your scooter is always in tip-top condition and responds to the slightest touch,” said Chapman.
Chapman added that the introduction of the Shell Advance AX5 15W40 Scooter Oil was timely due to the renewed popularity of scooter as a lifestyle vehicle among the younger generation.
The Shell Advance AX5 15W40 Scooter Oil retails for RM21.50 in Peninsula Malaysia and RM22.00 in Sabah and Sarawak.
In conjunction with the launch of the Shell Advance AX 5 4T 15W40 Scooter Oil, Shell Malaysia has also officially kicked off the search for young talented Malaysian riders to take part in the 2015 Shell Advance Asia Talent Cup (SAATC).
