With the latest fully-synthetic formulation, the Castrol EDGE engine oil in King Khan’s car helps him make a quick getaway from the paps.
If you’re a car enthusiast, then you’ve spent long hours reading about performance terms – things like horsepower, engine displacement and turbochargers. But one often overlooked aspect of performance is engine oil. Combustion is the heartbeat of the engine, and oil is its lifeblood, making it a crucial element of overall performance. And nobody understands this better than Castrol.
The British lubricant specialist has a history that can be traced way back to 1899, and the culmination of all those years of experience is the latest range of Castrol EDGE engine oils. We could tell you about the new formulation that features PowerBoost TechnologyTM, offering better on-demand performance. But to show you exactly what that means in the real world, there’s none better than larger-than-life Bollywood superstar Shahrukh Khan.
As one of the most photographed people on the planet, being able to make a quick getaway and ‘Stay Ahead’ is more important to him than it is to most of us. Which is why he’s grateful for the fact that Castrol EDGE is formulated to deliver the on-demand performance he needs. The minute he steps outdoors, he’s swarmed by the paparazzi. He sets off in his car, but they’re still hot on his tail. A quick flex of his right foot, though, and they’re left in the dust. Whether it’s zipping up a winding hilly road or tearing away from a traffic light, the paps have no hope of keeping up.
Formulated to deliver 30% improved performance versus tough industry limits*, Castrol EDGE helps you extract every last horsepower from your engine, which SRK appreciates as he observes the paparazzi getting smaller and smaller in his rearview mirror. When the dust settles, all that’s left behind are some blurry photographs of a car racing away, and some disappointed paps shaking their heads.
When they finally manage to get a hold of King Khan later, they’re handed a pack of Castrol EDGE and soon learn the story of how he managed to ‘Stay Ahead’. The advanced fully-synthetic range of Castrol EDGE has been carefully designed and rigorously tested over thousands of kilometres to surpass some of the most demanding industry and manufacturer specifications. And since it’s ready for BS6 engines; including SUVs, European performance cars, and hybrids, the paparazzi has no hope of snapping SRK no matter what he chooses to drive, as long as he’s got Castrol EDGE flowing through the motor. Thankfully, though, he has mercy on the men and women behind the lens, releasing his first-ever custom photo gallery that you can check out here.
