Petron Corporation has launched Petron Sprint Scooter Oil, a new engine oil designed for scooters in everyday Filipino driving conditions. It offers reliable performance and protection for riders across the Philippines. The introduction highlights challenges like traffic and weather faced by local motorists.
On November 15, 2025, Petron Corporation, one of the country's leading oil companies, introduced Petron Sprint Scooter Oil as the newest addition to its motorcycle engine oil line. Designed specifically for scooter engines, it provides reliable performance and protection tailored to the daily challenges faced by Filipino riders.
Across the Philippines, scooters are increasingly popular for their ease of maneuverability, ideal for navigating heavy traffic on major roads like C5, EDSA, and Commonwealth Avenue. For millions of Filipinos, scooters represent not just convenience but freedom and independence in mobility. However, riders contend with unpredictable weather, rough roads, steep climbs, and long non-stop rides that test both them and their vehicles.
"We understand the daily challenges of scooter riders – that’s why we developed Petron Sprint Scooter Oil," said Mr. Virgilio V. Centeno, Vice President for industrial sales. "It was designed to make everyday rides smoother and worry-free, offering high-quality and value for money that riders can truly count on."
The oil features the right viscosity and one of the highest API ratings in the country, exceeding current scooter engine requirements. It performs well in local conditions, including traffic, long rides, uphill roads, and continuous operation in heat or rain. Blended in Petron's modern facility—one of Southeast Asia's top oil blending plants—it ensures consistency and reliability. Priced affordably, it keeps scooters at their best every day.
The launch event was attended by Petron stakeholders, including Mr. Jaime Lu, Ms. Jacqueline Ang, and others. It is sponsored by Petron and handled by BrandRap, Rappler's sales and marketing arm. The product's slogan is 'Subok Sa Bawat Ride,' celebrating the confident #ScooterNation of Filipinos on the road.
