The transport industry is facing cost pressure and calling for sustainable green processes. This is where high-quality oils come in, as they have been proven to help reduce fuel costs. However, another way they create sustainability is by optimising the service life of vehicles and keeping them on the road for as long as possible.
In these times of upheaval, the transport industry is testing and introducing new drive technologies. There is just as much focus on alternative drive systems as there is on alternative fuels. These include LNG (liquefied natural gas), LBG (liquefied biogas), CNG (compressed natural gas) and HVO (synthetic diesel).
Rising fuel prices are having an impact everywhere, but nowhere are they more keenly felt than in the transport sector. The challenge is to reduce the costs of existing fleets. Factoring sustainability strategies into this is essential. “Oils with reduced viscosity have been shown to lower fuel consumption,” explains Christoph Grünig, Product Manager at MOTOREX. “Surveys of general cargo traffic in Switzerland indicated fuel savings of more than 2%. It is therefore reasonable to assume that there is potential to make even more savings in long-haul transport.”
With the right oil, it is possible to save an average of more than CHF 800.00 per vehicle per year (based on 80,000 km travelled per year with 25 litres of fuel consumed per 100 km).
Official approvals underline reliability and quality standard. The NEXUS FE SAE 5W/30 fuel economy motor oil not only meets vehicle manufacturers’ official approval criteria, but also reduces fuel consumption thanks to its low viscosity. High-quality base oils and additives also keep engines completely clean. NEXUS FE SAE 5W/30 already fulfils the more stringent requirements set by the ACEA [1] in 2022, thus demonstrating its performance efficiency.

NEXUS FE SAE 5W/30 meets all manufacturers’ approval criteria, from Mercedes-Benz right through to Volvo and Scania. This makes it ideal as a fleet-wide solution, as its wide range of applications avoids the need for complex storage arrangements and thus prevents mix-ups. “Ideally, hauliers will exclusively use cross-brand oils with official manufacturer approvals,” Christoph Grünig points out.
MOTOREX provides the right lubrication and care product for everything from axles to rear-view mirrors. Aside from motor oil, low-viscosity gear and axle oils also help save fuel and costs. On top of that, MOTOREX CLEAN & CARE offers everything needed to keep vehicles clean and well-maintained both inside and out. In keeping with the slogan “Pimp my truck with MOTOREX”, any truck can be transformed into a show vehicle.
