TotalEnergies and Stellantis extend long-term partnership to cover all ten vehicle brands in portfolio.
After more than half a century of collaboration, TotalEnergies and Stellantis have announced a renewal and expansion of their engine oil partnership. Originally renewed in 2021 for the Peugeot, Citroën, DS Automobiles and Opel, Vauxhall brands, the agreement now extends to encompass all ten iconic Stellantis brands: Fiat, Jeep, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Abarth, Citroën, DS Automobiles, Opel, Vauxhall and Peugeot.
With Stellantis brands accounting for around one in ten new cars registered in the UK this year, and two of the ten most-registered vehicles currently on the road overall, the partnership continues to help workshops and vehicle owners maintain a significant portion of the UK car parc.
Earlier this year, TotalEnergies became the only supplier offering officially approved lubricants across all six of Stellantis’ newly harmonised specifications. This range was recently enhanced with the addition of Quartz EV3R RCP 5W-30—the newest product in the re-refined base oils range (EV3R), which is the only product with the latest approvals for DV5R, DW10F and DW12RU diesel engines, as well as 1.2 PureTech (EB2) petrol engines, and providing performance credentials equal to the previous virgin oil RCP 5W-30, but with enhanced circular economy benefits.
Technical progress
Since its beginnings with Citroën more than half a century ago, the partnership between Stellantis and TotalEnergies has evolved into a driving force for trust, performance and technological excellence.
“We are proud to renew our partnership with Stellantis, built on more than fifty years of shared trust and innovation,” said Pierre Duhot, Senior Vice President Lubricants at TotalEnergies. “This new chapter extends our collaboration to all Stellantis brands and reinforces our common ambition to advance more sustainable and efficient mobility solutions.”
The partnership is structured around four key pillars that embody the long-standing collaboration between TotalEnergies and Stellantis for engine oils and lubricants:
-
Research and Development: continuous co-development focused on innovation and technical excellence, delivering cutting-edge solutions for existing and future engines.
-
Competition: over five decades of joint passion in the most demanding motorsports arenas, where TotalEnergies supports Stellantis’ pursuit of performance and success.
-
After-Sales Collaboration: close cooperation to provide expert support and tailored solutions for Stellantis dealership, service networks, and our customers.
-
Sustainability: joint commitment to a more circular future through eco-designed products and responsible manufacturing.
For UK workshops and distributors, the expanded partnership provides access to a broader range of OEM-approved lubricant solutions backed by decades of technical collaboration between a leading vehicle manufacturer and lubricant supplier.
“This expanded partnership with TotalEnergies reflects our commitment to quality, innovation and sustainability across all Stellantis brands. By combining technical expertise and forward-looking approach, we are delivering solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers, especially regarding quality,” said Francesco Abbruzzesi, Head of Parts & Services for Stellantis in Enlarged Europe.
