The fuel is developed to comply with the more stringent requirements for Euro 5 diesel and is formulated with an advanced additive system.
Petron said the new diesel product is "environment-friendly" because of its ultra-low sulphur content of 10ppm as compared to the previous 500ppm of Euro 2M diesel.
The drastic suphur reduction means lower exhaust emissions and better air quality.
Petron said its TriAction Advantage additive allows for better combustion, enabling an improved cold start performance, quicker engine start-up, smoother drive, improved fuel economy, improved oxidation stability, as well as protection against corrosion and diesel fuel foaming. This, then, results in longer engine life, better mileage, and better power, it claimed.
The Diesel Max Euro 5 is now available at all Petron service stations nationwide.
