New & Improved Shell Fuels

Over time deposit build up can happen on critical engine components. This maybe due to improper combustion & other factors impacting engine condition.

This new formulation in Shell Petrol offers:

Next generation deposit targeting technology which removes harmful deposits and protects engine condition^x. Our new & improved Shell petrol is designed to remove up to 65% of harmful engine deposits and to protect against future build-up^ø.

^ø _{Helps to clean and protect key fuel system components such as intake valves and/or fuel injectors from the build up of performance robbing deposits. Based on industry standard and Shell proprietary methods. Actual effects and benefits may vary according to vehicle type, vehicle condition and driving style. No guarantees provided.

Our New & Improved Shell petrol is designed to get to work on your engine from the very first full tank fill. However, depending on engine condition, it may take longer to clean critical engine parts and half tank may prolong that even further.

E.g.: If your house needs 4 hours of deep cleaning but you’ve only spent half that time, surely your house is not deep cleaned as you may have preferred.

Over time deposits can form on components such as intake valves or fuel injectors in gasoline engines. These deposits can be hard to remove and can prevent your engine performing at its best.

While Shell V-Power petrol with our new & improved formulation offers 100% cleaning of critical engine parts with every fill (π). Therefore, Shell V-Power petrol maximizes engine performance and restores up to 100% of your engine’s performance.^π

^π_{Removes and protects from the build up of performance robbing deposits on key fuel system components such as intake valves and/or fuel injectors.

For 4-wheelers, Shell V-Power petrol with new formulation offers 100% cleaning of critical engine parts with every fill ^π and it is boosted with 3X more cleaning and protection molecules as compared to our Shell Petrol ^µ. Our new formulation works in both older & new cars ^π.

For 2-wheelers, new & improved Shell V-Power petrol is our best performance fuel your bike. Shell V-Power keeps your motorbike powerful ^¥. One can also experience improved acceleration ^¥ with Shell V-Power and a smoother drive ^β.

Therefore, Shell V-Power petrol maximizes engine performance and restores up to 100% of your engine’s performance.

Over time deposits can form on components such as intake valves and/or fuel injectors in gasoline engines. These deposits can be hard to remove and can prevent your engine performing at its best. 

E.g.: If you think about a showerhead at home when limescale deposits build up in the showerhead, the water pressure decreases & shower experience is impacted. This effect is similar to that of a fuel injector impacted by deposits build up over time

No, this is a new formulation.

All Shell fuels, including Shell Petrol and Shell V-Power petrol are 91 Octane (RON) rated fuels in line with the Government regulations & standards. And our new formulation offers next generation deposit targeting technology which removes harmful deposits and protects engine condition.

No.The deposits are combusted in the engine and will not cause blockage of filters in the engine.

It takes time to get things right; in the laboratory, on test benches and in road tests, to ensure we deliver great results for our customers. At Shell, our endeavor is to keep on upgrading our fuels portfolio to meet the latest automotive & customer needs, at a regular interval.

New & Improved Shell V-Power petrol is the only fuel used, trusted and recommended by Scuderia Ferrari. And Shell V-Power petrol is the only premium fuel recommended by Ducati.

Our new & improved Shell fuel is designed for use in whatever type of petrol engine you drive. It has been developed to meet the demands of modern engines, as well as continuing to deliver benefits in older engines. Our new & improved Shell fuels work in both PFI and DI engines^x.

The New & Improved Shell fuels have been developed and tested by Shell’s international team of about 150 fuel scientists and engineers, over the course of five years leveraging both their expert knowledge and more than 100 years long heritage in innovation. The cleaning and engine efficiency of the fuels have also been demonstrated through rigorous industry standard and Shell proprietary tests.

There are many stages of testing before we’re ready to share a new product with our customers, from the conception of an idea through to the delivery of the fuel and finally to the pumps. The first round of testing predominantly takes place in the laboratory, where we investigate a vast array of formulations. The ones that look most promising then go on to bench engine testing, which involves an engine being taken out of a vehicle and being operated under tightly controlled test conditions - this eliminates as many experimental conditions and variables as possible.

After that, we test the fuel in a real vehicle, on a rolling road – also known as a chassis dynamometer which represents road driving conditions but in a more tightly controlled environment. The final stage of testing involves us using the products in a trial in vehicles under real road conditions.

Usually, it takes us up to 5 years to develop & launch a new fuel to meet the latest engine technology needs as well as customer demands. At Shell, we have a team of approximately 150 fuel scientists and engineers across the globe who work on fuels innovation, development and product implementation.

Shell’s new and improved petrol fuels have been rigorously assessed according to industry standard and Shell proprietary tests, covering both PFI and DI engine technologies. Where testing was conducted externally, for example when running industry standard testing, we have used accredited 3rd party test facilities to complete this testing. Additionally, our own Shell laboratories are accredited according to ISO 9001 to ensure testing is performed in line with quality procedures.

Our proprietary tests are developed by an expert team of fuel scientists and engineers across the world. They are rigorous and based on industry standards recognised by both regulators and vehicle manufacturers as reflecting best practice within the automotive sector.

The benefits of New & Improved Shell petrol are dependent on many other variables, including vehicle type, vehicle condition, driving style, road and weather conditions. Depending upon all the variables, customers can experience the difference in both city & highway drives. Whilst we are confident in the benefits our new fuel provides, the actual effects and benefits may vary.

Over time deposit build up can happen on critical engine components. This may be due to improper combustion & other factors impacting engine condition. New and improved Shell fuels have double-action deposit targeting additive which removes harmful deposits and protects the condition of your engine^x. It has been developed to meet the demands of modern engines, as well as continuing to deliver benefits in older engines. This applies to both PFI and DI engines. Therefore, New & Improved Shell fuels work in both old and new engine technologies^x.
