MANILA: Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corp. (Pilipinas Shell) signed a three-year agreement with Chery Auto Philippines. where the lubricants of the fuel company will be utilized on engines for after-sales maintenance in the service centers of Chery. This is to guarantee that auto brand's vehicles remain in good condition.

During the launch of the collaboration, Vice President of Shell Lubricants Steve Quila shared, “Pilipinas Shell has always been dedicated to supplying premium, dependable, and economic vehicle engine oils to consumers around the country. Pandemic or not, our commitment hasn’t stopped and will only continue to grow as more people realize how critical mobility is to their everyday lives. We are honored to partner up with Chery Auto Philippines and are confident they can help us further our mission of supporting automobiles nationwide.”

Chery dealership expansion

For the past 10 years, SUVs, crossovers, and passenger cars have been among the most rapidly growing vehicle categories in the country.

In 2019, these vehicles accounted for 69.18% share of the market; and this established their position as the driving force of the industry. 

But similar to most sectors, the automotive industry was affected by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, such that vehicle sales were significantly lower in 2020. 

Nevertheless, the importance of mobility was also greatly emphasized the previous year and along with this, vehicle ownership has been projected to increase worldwide amid the concerns of the pandemic.

Given the challenging driving conditions at present, an engine oil that can efficiently respond to changes in engine tension is considered necessary. 

With this, the signing of the agreement between Pilipinas Shell and Chery Auto Philippines gave emphasis to the Shell Helix HX7 5W-40, a supreme multi-grade motor oil meant to help in providing reliable engine performance. Its flexi-molecule technology is what makes it distinct from other lubricants since this type of technology continuously adapts to boost safety, especially when the engine requires it the most. 

In two cases, the flexi molecule-technology of the HX7 5W-40  generates barriers of protection around engine components. 

First, during cases where there is high pressure such as a race or the need to shift direction to avoid a collision, the flexi-molecules create a shield around metal contacts like the valve train to give protection to the engine, especially when most of the oil is being released.

Second, high temperatures activate the flexi-molecules of the HX7 5W-40, which form a barrier in turbochargers for oxidation control.

An essential aspect to remember regarding flexi-molecules is that they do not work under low pressure or low temperature conditions, such as a smooth drive on the roads where the vehicle maintains a stable pace; the technology reserves its protection capacities when the car needs it the most.

The engine and its related components also acquire 40% better protection from the flexi-molecules technology. 

Chery Auto Philippines is set to leverage these engine protection advantages through the utilization of the Shell Helix HX7 5W-40 exclusively in the preventive maintenance services (PMS) of Chery vehicles. 

The auto company is under the ISO-certified United Asia Automotive Group, Inc. (UAAGI), one of the top vehicle distributors in the Philippines, which has more than 25 years of experience in the automotive market. 

Vice President for Customer Service from Chery Auto Philippines Errol Dueñas said, “Similar to Pilipinas Shell’s vision of making premium fuels and services accessible to a diverse range of markets, we at Chery advocate for an ideal marketplace where each customer has access to practical, quality vehicles. We look forward to a fruitful partnership.”

Chery Auto Philippines also boasts of outstanding after-sales offers, namely, the three-year free roadside assistance, three-year free PMS, five-year general warranty, and a 10-year/one-million-kilometer engine warranty. 

These offers are further reinforced through a joint effort with the best engine oil company that offers superior efficiency and protection. 

The Chery and Pilipinas Shell collaboration is set to boost automotive support in the country — powered by their outstanding services, quality products, and experience, and bolstered by their advancement and growth strategies.  

Beginning this year until 2023, Shell Helix HX7 5W-40 and more of the vehicle care products of Pilipinas Shell will aid in protecting engines across the 18 dealership locations of Chery Auto Philippines in the country.
