Move Like Never Before

The all-new PETRONAS Primax 95 with Pro-Drive is designed to meet every driver’s needs and the most demanding engine requirements. Diligently designed via our global capabilities to deliver smoothness, responsiveness, and efficiency for your drive.

The new active ingredients in the formulation is proven to make your vehicle feel lighter at the touch of the pedal and empowers you to move like never before. This breakthrough was developed through three defining phases - Design, Develop and Deliver.

DESIGN

The new fuel has been designed based on driver’s needs in today’s driving condition and in anticipation of future engine technology, most demanding being hybrids.

The new PETRONAS Primax 95 with Pro-Drive delivers smoothness, responsiveness, and efficiency for your drive through these three attributes.

Smooth

Delivers a smooth ride by improving fuel combustion and fuel atomisation.

Responsive

By reducing friction and lubricating the cylinder wall, your car responds better to the demands of the road.

Efficient

Optimizes fuel efficiency by cleaning and protecting your engine.

DEVELOP

The new fuel was developed with close collaboration amongst our global scientists, engineers and the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Motorsport F1 team, leveraging on our facilities in Europe.

The new PETRONAS Primax 95 with Pro-Drive introduced a newer and enhanced pro-drive formulation to make your vehicles move like never before.

DELIVER

The new fuel promises to deliver a smoother drive, more responsive engine performance and enhanced fuel efficiency, proven via our independent tests carried out in US and right here on Malaysian roads.

In 2018, we had carried out a blind test with over 200 popular locally and internationally made vehicles, comparing it against our previous PETRONAS Primax 95 and other samples in the market.

The results were very encouraging, with over 70% of the participants indicated that the new fuel performed better than their current fuel in terms of smoothness, responsiveness and efficiency.

DELIVER

We began a quest to develop the next breakthrough by anticipating future engine and human needs.

The anticipation of engine evolution for Malaysian market beyond direct injection.

Typical petrol engine

Indirect Injection

Direct Injection

Hybrid

We have seen a rapid adoption and implementation of hybrids technology by the automotive industry over the past years. This has contributed to the introduction of engine evolution for Malaysian market which we believe to be beneficial for today’s driving condition.

An ethnographic study between vehicle and the fuel to the owners has contributed to the all-new PETRONAS Primax 95 with Pro-Drive.

A good fuel should deliver these roles hand in hand to the drivers which include convenience, confidante, safety, saviour, and bond.

Types of drivers depend on the frequency of drive which is classified into routine drive, enjoyment drive, holiday drive, and emergency drive.

Fuel that works efficiently throughout the journey, from the start of the drive, to during and after

Starting Journey

Instant and smooth engine start

During Journey

Responsive during change of lane, going uphill, out of junction and overtaking

AFTER Journey

Ready for next trip

old technology

Monodentate thus easier to desorb from the metal surface that should be protected.

Rust is visible on the testing rod

new technology

Multidentate chemistry that provides much stronger binding to the metal surface, hence better protection.

No rust observed on the testing rod.
