Sept. 17, 2019
Pennzoil is introducing four new products into their full synthetic motor oil portfolio: Pennzoil Extended Care, Pennzoil Start Stop Protection, Pennzoil Maximum Power and Pennzoil Hybrid.

Choosing motor oil doesn’t need to be confusing, which is why Pennzoil simplified the decision-making process for drivers with the introduction of a new family of innovative full synthetic motor oils made from pure natural gas, not crude. Pennzoil is introducing four new products into their full synthetic motor oil portfolio: Pennzoil Extended Care™, Pennzoil Start Stop Protection™, Pennzoil Maximum Power™ and Pennzoil Hybrid™.
 
These four full synthetic motor oils are engineered to meet the requirements of motorists’ engine types and driving styles, providing complete care for these vehicles. The products will be available for purchase from select online retailers beginning November 1, 2019.                                     

Pennzoil is continuing to deliver cutting-edge motor oil technology with new, innovative products designed for your drive,” said Patty Lanning, General Manager, North America Marketing for Shell Lubricants. “Our new products offer unbeatable engine protection2 and performance for driving situations most important to motorists. With fully synthetic products made from natural gas, Pennzoil can ensure drivers are protected and confident with industry-leading technology under their hood.”
 
Pennzoil is the first motor oil made from pure natural gas, not crude. From that 99.5% pure and clear base oil, with fewer impurities than typically found in crude oil, Pennzoil adds its high-performance additives to create Pennzoil Extended Care, Pennzoil Start Stop Protection, Pennzoil Maximum Power and Pennzoil Hybrid.
