Shell Helix Ultra: Experts' Top Pick

Car manufacturers and drivers of the world’s best motor engines trust Shell Helix Ultra engine oil with PurePlus Technology to maximise their car’s engine performance.

Scuderia Ferrari

Scuderia Ferrari

Ferrari has partnered with Shell since the 1950s and continues to drive innovation and excellence. The first Ferrari road car to leave the factory used Shell lubricant, and every Ferrari engine leaving the production line in Maranello, Italy, is filled with Shell Helix Ultra with PurePlus Technology.

Collaboration between Shell scientists and team engineers in the extreme environment of elite motor racing is the perfect recipe for producing leading engine, transmission, and gear oils. Taking those learnings, Shell and Scuderia Ferrari have co-designed a formulation of low-viscosity oil, Shell Helix Ultra 0W, to withstand the toughest environments while delivering maximum performance and efficiency.

Looking to the future, Shell and Scuderia Ferrari are working to meet the goal of fully sustainable fuels in the Formula One™ car1.

"Shell Helix is the only motor oil used, trusted and recommended by Scuderia Ferrari..."

Maserati and Shell have a long-standing technical partnership of over 15 years supported by the strength of Shell’s PurePlus Technology. Our shared passion provides technical innovation and collaboration that ignites engine performance.

Maserati and Shell share an ambitious future for mobility with Maserati’s entrance into electrification and the continuous improvement of performance and engine life. As a result the Shell & Maserati developed the Shell Helix Ultra Hybrid Maserati 0W-30 - a bespoke co-branded motor oil specifically formulated for hybrid engines.

"We are proud of our technical collaboration with Shell in the development of extraordinary products and we look forward the Technology and Innovation we continue to develop together."

BMW M Motorsport

The Shell Technical Partnership with BMW Motorsport is the latest chapter in Shell’s exciting history in Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM) and touring car racing.

BMW Motorsport engineers collaborate with Shell scientists to develop high-performance oils, delivering long-lasting engine performance in a sport where mere seconds make the difference between winning and losing. Shell’s premium products power the performance of BMW drivers, allowing them to truly stand out in motorsport – while BMW drivers all over the world can enjoy the benefits our expertise has crafted.

"In DTM even the smallest issue can risk compromising the performance of the car. With just one engine available per driver per season, lubricants are crucial in helping to generate maximum performance and ensuring durability. Shell Helix Ultra gives us peace of mind in that and more.”

Shell and Hyundai s partnership, which began in 2014, has resulted in 24 World Rally Championship (WRC) event wins in 10 seasons and counting. During these challenging events, Shell engineers ensured elite lubricant performance, maintaining engine reliability without wear issues.

Shell also helped the team develop an additional 1.5 horsepower, representing an average of six seconds advantage at each rally. In an adventure where close isn’t close enough, this is significant. We believe everyone should have access to the same quality as the Hyundai Motorsport team – so our learnings from the past 10 years have been developed to ensure your car performs at its best, whatever the weather or terrain.

"Shell has been with us since the very start of our WRC journey... They played a key part in our two title successes, and we’ve been pleased to carry on the winning partnership into the new hybrid era. This is far more than just title sponsorship of the Hyundai Shell Mobis World Rally Team, it is a true technical collaboration."
