Switch on an electric future

EVs are the future, and we are playing a major role in helping them:

 

Go further1

EV Transmission Fluids help reduce energy losses in the drivetrain system and improve transmission efficiency.

 

Charge faster2

EV Thermal Fluids can help reduce the maximum temperatures battery cells reach during ultrafast charging. ​

 

Last longer3

EV Transmission Fluids help protect gears, extending drivetrain system life.

Dry Transmission EV Fluid

 

The challenge

EV transmissions can experience extremely high torque at low speeds and at the same time have to deal with more than double input speeds from the electric motor putting the fluid under immense stress. In addition, the limited range and resulting range anxiety need to be overcome.

 

Our technology

Castrol ON Dry EV Transmission Fluid resists the effects of working hard, providing enhanced protection, reduced viscosity loss and fast release of entrained air whilst enabling maximum efficiency.

 

The result

Helps extend the life of the drivetrain system and help EVs go further1* on a single charge.
