Caltex Havoline, jenama pelincir premium yang dipasarkan oleh Caltex Malaysia, telah melancarkan minyak enjin sintetik sepenuhnya terbaharu yang dicipta khusus untuk memenuhi keperluan kenderaan hibrid. Produk baharu yang dikenali sebagai Caltex Havoline Fully Synthetic Hybrid SAE 0W-20 ini dirumus untuk memberikan prestasi unggul sambil menangani cabaran unik sistem rangkaian kuasa hibrid.

Dengan peningkatan ketara dalam jumlah kenderaan hibrid di jalan raya Malaysia, permintaan terhadap pelincir yang mampu berfungsi secara optimum dalam keadaan operasi khas enjin hibrid juga semakin meningkat. Berbeza daripada enjin pembakaran dalaman konvensional, enjin hibrid sering beroperasi pada suhu yang lebih rendah dan berisiko tinggi mengalami pengumpulan enap cemar, kakisan serta kehausan pramatang.

Menanggapi cabaran ini, Caltex memperkenalkan formulasi eksklusif yang direka untuk mengatasi isu-isu tersebut secara langsung. Salah satu ciri utama minyak enjin ini ialah keupayaan cemerlangnya dalam menangani pencairan air dan bahan api. Ia menggunakan teknologi pembentukan emulsi terkini yang memastikan pengaliran minyak kekal stabil walaupun dalam persekitaran yang lembap, sekaligus mengekalkan pelinciran optimum dan memastikan operasi enjin kekal lancar serta boleh dipercayai.

Caltex Havoline, the premium lubricant brand marketed by Caltex Malaysia, has introduced a new fully synthetic engine oil specifically engineered for hybrid vehicles. The newly launched Caltex Havoline Fully Synthetic Hybrid SAE 0W-20 promises to elevate engine performance while addressing the unique challenges posed by hybrid powertrains.

As hybrid vehicles become increasingly common on Malaysian roads, there is growing demand for lubricants that can adapt to the specific operating conditions of hybrid engines. These engines frequently operate at lower temperatures and face distinct risks, including the build-up of low-temperature sludge, corrosion, and premature wear. Recognising this, Caltex has developed a proprietary formulation that directly addresses these concerns.

The new lubricant boasts exceptional water and fuel dilution performance, achieved through advanced emulsion-forming technology that ensures consistent oil flow even in the presence of moisture. This helps maintain optimal engine lubrication, contributing to smoother and more reliable operation.

Additionally, the engine oil offers enhanced protection against rust and corrosion, forming a protective barrier on engine components to guard against the harmful effects of fuel and water contamination. This added layer of protection contributes to longer engine life and sustained performance.

Caltex Malaysia has introduced an exciting way to enhance customers’ fuelling experience with the Caltex Rewards program, available through the CaltexGO app. The app allows users to earn and redeem rewards effortlessly with each fuel-up, bringing convenience and value to every journey.

The recent Caltex Rewards Discovery Hunt event put the app to the test, as influencers and media participants raced across Klang Valley, solving riddles and completing tasks at various Caltex stations. This event showcased the ease of using the app, not just for fuelling but also for redeeming rewards from popular brands like Watsons and FamilyMart.

Chevron Malaysia Limited, which markets the Caltex products, now offers customers a mobile payment app for more convenience. Known as ‘CaltexGO’, it is currently available for use only at Caltex stations in the Klang Valley. The company says that coverage will extend to other parts of the country by the first half of 2022.

Development of CaltexGO for Malaysia was done with feedback from CaltexGO users in Singapore, Thailand, Caltex family and friends trial users, and learning from industry best practices. The integrated mobile app provides a faster and easier way for motorists to pay for fuel, earn and redeem loyalty card points.

The app, which is available for both Android and iOS smartphones and tablets, can also be used to locate a service station and to view electronic receipts. The cashless transaction will also be welcome in these times when there a need to practice social distancing as the process (other than inserting the pump nozzle) can be done from within the safety of the vehicle.

“At the very heart of the CaltexGO implementation is our customers. More than just delivering quality products and services, our priority is to improve our customers’ experience and subsequently, continue their journeys on the road. And with CaltexGO, motorists who are keen to get in and out of the service station can now fuel up, skip the queue, and pay,” said Jay Gomez, Country Chairman of Chevron Malaysia Limited.

Always take care when pumping fuel, and be sure your handphone is not in use (it is an offence to use a mobilephone at a petrol station).

Although mobile payment is gaining popularity, safety requirements at the service station have not changed. Motorists should only use their phones after their vehicle’s engine is switched off, when inside an enclosed stationary vehicle or when inside the convenience store. Caltex advises customers to be mindful of their surroundings and focus on the refueling task at hand.

First-time users of CaltexGO who pump a minimum of RM30 worth of fuel at a Caltex station will receive a RM5 cashback. They will also receive another RM5 cashback when they pump a minimum of RM30 on subsequent visits (capped at 2 times per user at RM10 cashback throughout the promotion period ending December 31, 2021).

StayAtHome

Although driving may be reduced now with the CMCO limiting our activities, those who do fuel up at Shell, Petron and Caltex stations can get something extra with their purchases.

SHELL
At Shell stations nationwide, the ‘Ekstra Ganjaran Setiap Hari’ campaign to reward loyal customers will give those with Bonuslink cards up to 4x points. The campaign begins on November 16, 2020 and will end on April 30, 2021.

“At a time of unprecedented economic uncertainty, we’ve had to rethink our loyalty programme offerings to ensure we continue to stand behind all our customers and provide them the best value. We hope customers will take this opportunity to get rewarded at Shell so they can go well on their journeys,” said Shairan Huzani Husain, MD of Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd and Shell Timur Sdn Bhd.

During this campaign, customers can accumulate BonusLink Points faster than before, based on the principle of tiered rewards where the more purchases one makes in a month, the higher the points tier they move up into – up to 4x BonusLink Points!

To participate and be upgraded to a higher points tier, customers simply need to swipe their BonusLink card at Shell and pump a minimum of RM50 of Shell petrol products in a single receipt. They will then earn extra BonusLink Points for each Qualifying Transaction according to the points multiplier at each points tier. With the points collected, customers can redeem special treats in-store for as low as 100 BonusLink Points.

PETRON
Petron customers will be rewarded with a RM3 cashback just by shopping at Watsons and vice-versa using the e-wallet app, Boost. A total of 80,000 cashbacks amounting to RM240,000 via the Boost are available during the promotion duration which is currently running and will end on December 31, 2020.

They must spend a minimum of RM30 on a single purchase using Boost at participating Watsons stores to earn a RM3 cashback for fuel products from Petron. Customers are allowed a maximum of up to 4 cashbacks from both Petron and Watsons using the Boost app.

“This collaboration with Boost and Watsons is meant to further reward our customers with more exciting offers when they fuel up with Petron,” said Choong Kum Choy, Head of Retail and Commercial Business of Petron Malaysia. “In addition to these, they continue to be awarded two PMiles points for every litre of fuel they purchase through our loyalty program. We invite everyone to enjoy this ‘fuel happy’ experience with Petron.

CALTEX
Caltex has tied up with the online e-commerce company Shopee to make payments for purchases easier. Customers can now use Shopee’s e-wallet known as ShopeePay to purchases petrol as well as other items at a Caltex station.

Those who make a minimum purchase of RM40 and pay using ShopeePay at a Caltex station will be rewarded with RM4 cashback from now until the end of 2020. Each ShopeePay user is entitled to receive up to 3 cashbacks throughout the campaign period, or until it is fully redeemed, whichever comes first.

“We are excited to introduce a new contactless payment option as we continuously look for ways to bring a hassle-free fuelling experience to our customers in their Caltex journey. Working together with ShopeePay allows us to provide fast, easy and secure transactions at our stations, more so now with the growing adoption of contactless payments in the country,” said Jay Gomez, Country Chairman for Chevron Malaysia, which markets Caltex fuel and lubricants.

Using ShopeePay does, however, require the motorist to go to the station store to make the transaction as it cannot be done at the pump. This would mean that, in accordance with the clarified SOP, it will be necessary to register manually or using the MySejahtera app on a mobilephone.

Providing a clean solution for motorcycle riders who desire the benefits of Techron® Concentrate Plus in a convenient small pack, Chevron Malaysia Limited, which markets the Caltex® brand, has launched the Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles, a fuel system cleaner for motorcycles. This premium fuel additive made for motorcycles is the newest addition to the Techron® family, with two predecessors Techron® Concentrate Plus for gasoline engines and the Techron® Diesel Concentrate launched back in 2014 and March 2018 respectively.

The Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles deep cleans the gasoline fuel system in one tankful using the ground-breaking Precision Clean™ technology. This fuel additive works at molecular levels to soften the deposits found in critical parts of the motorcycle fuel system and suspend them in fuel. These deposits are then carried through to the combustion chamber to be burnt and ejected in the exhaust.

Backed with 30 years of research and development, one 75ml bottle of advanced fuel additive can help restore lost engine power, maximise fuel economy, protect against corrosion, reduce harmful emissions and rough idle, deposits control and engine protection and clean the entire fuel system.

Sheryl Law, Marketing Manager AP at Chevron Lubricants said, “Caltex® is constantly at the forefront of innovation, rising up to the challenge to deliver top-notch quality products for engine protection. Driving performance and fuel economy are compromised when grimy deposits build up in an engine’s fuel system. With the latest addition to Caltex’s Techron® family, Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles, riders can be rest assured that their motorcycle engines are fully protected.”

Restore your engine performance in three (3) simple steps!

  1. Pull over to your nearest Caltex service station and get yourself a Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycle (be sure your gas tank is near empty at this point!).
  2. Pour the entire (75ml) content of ONE bottle of Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycle into the empty tank.
  3. Fill up your tank with your favourite petrol until it’s full. The cleaning starts as you ride away!

“Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles was developed specifically for motorcyclists who seek the need to clean deposits in the motorcycle fuel system which was built over time as a result of using low quality fuels. With Techron’s high-performance fuel, we are giving motorcyclists the opportunity to have a cleaner and worry-free ride,” added Law.

Rider Tips: For best results, use Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles every 3,000 km. Start cleaning by simply pouring the entire bottle into a near empty fuel tank and top up with up to 6 litres of gasoline fuel.

For a worry-free ride, get the 75ml Techron® Concentrate Plus for Motorcycles at the nearest Caltex station near you or participating motorcycle workshops for only RM9.90 per bottle.
