300V Range – the lubricant that changed the world!

This year, Motul are celebrating 50 years of their ground-breaking 300V range.

Whether it is on a race track or in a rally, motorsport engines require optimum lubrication at all times to achieve peak performance. More and more competitors are turning to the Motul 300V range to meet these extreme demands. But what’s so special about the 300V and its innovative technology?

A world first in lubricant technology

Motul has a proud heritage in motorsport, as well as one of the world’s most advanced laboratories to develop and test lubricants in the most extreme racing conditions. Motul has been the forerunner of lubricant technology throughout the world. In 1953 it was the first company to develop the multi-grade oil, and in 1966 became the first to bring a semi-synthetic multigrade oil to the market.

The history of 300V

In 1971 the company launched the first 100% synthetic lubricant ever designed for cars. They applied aeronautical technology for the first time in the automotive field and the new product range of 300V was named in honour of the 300 victories obtained by the brand up to that point.

What is ESTER Core technology?

Motul’s unique ESTER Core technology combines the best performing synthetic base oils including synthetic esters with bespoke dedicated chemical additives. Used exclusively in the 300V range, this technology delivers some significant benefits such as increased power with reduced internal friction, high temperature resistance and oil pressure stability and improved protection through optimised polarity for maximum adherance of the oil film. It also means reduced lubricant consumption through the use of low votatility synthetic base oils.

Modern day unrivalled power

Today the 300V Motorsport range of lubricants is specifically formulated for racing applications and reflects Motul’s technological expertise and technology partnerships with car manufacturers.

These power boosting lubricants have been developed for leading factory racing teams worldwide, but also have the same availability to the general public and the motor trade.

The result is unrivalled power increase, outstanding lubrication and optimal protection – the best conditions for ultimate victory.
