Gulf Oils globally proven new generation lubricants specially designed for such small vehicles will be used in the car to combat the harsh Indian conditions. The CarWale team will also meet several Gulf Oil merchants along the route to showcase the benefits of these new lubricants.
Speaking at the flag off of the Gulf Carwale Endurance run, Mr. Ravi Chawla, President - Lubes Business, Gulf Oil Corporation Ltd. said “This is the first Nano car in the world that has been branded in Gulf Colours.

The car has been charged with the latest generation Gulf Lubricants to enable it to endure the arduous run through treacherous roads and extreme climatic conditions.”
Kartik Ganesh, Editor for CarWale and also the lead driver of the team, said, “The Endurance Drive, in a true sense, tests the spunk of a little car in the changing geographies of India. And we will constantly be posting updates, photos and videos on carwale.com as well as through twitter. We are quite excited about the whole thing - 5th gear action as we call it.”
