Beginning this April, ExxonMobil will begin converting NASCARs 65 fleet-and-service vehicles (and 16 generators) to Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy and Mobil Delvac 1 LE 5W-30. As part of this effort, ExxonMobil -- the company behind Mobil 1, the Official Lubricant Technology Partner of NASCAR® -- has been named an official partner of the NASCAR RACE TO GREEN initiative.
"Leveraging our industry-leading technology and engineering resources, were proud to offer NASCAR some of the most innovative lubricant and specialty products and services that help deliver tangible performance- and sustainability-related benefits, said Artis Brown, global motorsports manager at ExxonMobil. Our line of advanced lubricating oils and greases can help increase equipment operating efficiency and engine fuel economy, and help contribute to reduced energy and resource use, lower emissions, and cost savings for industrial equipment and machinery, as well as passenger and commercial vehicle engines.
ExxonMobil has been an exemplary official partner, especially when considering their expertise in lubricant technology, said Michael Lynch, vice president of Green Innovation for NASCAR. Having their support for our RACE TO GREEN program makes our green efforts that much more impactful, while affording us the chance to utilize even more of their premium products for our vehicle fleet.
Designed for gasoline-fueled vehicles, Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy is engineered with a proprietary blend of high performance synthetic basestocks fortified with a precisely balanced component additive system. The low viscosity, advanced full synthetic formulation helps to increase engine efficiency and can improve fuel economy. Mobil 1 Advanced Fuel Economy provides the high-temperature protection of higher viscosity oils while offering the best fuel economy in the Mobil 1 line.
Mobil Delvac 1 LE 5W-30 is a low-viscosity, synthetic diesel engine oil that is formulated to deliver outstanding engine protection and valuable sustainability-related benefits, including enhanced fuel economy potential and long drain intervals. It is recommended for diesel-powered commercial vehicles, such as, trucks, buses, vans and a range of off-highway equipment used in the construction, mining and agriculture industries.
