Maruti Suzuki Introduces Ecstar Range Of Car Care Products For Swift, Vitara Brezza & Other Arena Cars

Maruti Suzuki claims that the Ecstar-branded engine oil can help increase fuel efficiency

Maruti Suzuki has announced that its Ecstar range of car care products, which were first introduced at Nexa service centres in September 2017, will now be available across its entire service network in the country. The carmaker has over 3,400 service outlets spread across the country and another 600-odd MGA outlets, which will also retail Ecstar products.

Ecstar-branded lubricants and chemicals are premium products developed specifically for Maruti Suzuki cars. However, the carmaker says these would be priced at par with other third-party products that it used to recommend before, so the maintenance cost of the vehicles is not going to go up. The carmaker had earlier claimed that using Ecstar products can improve the car’s fuel efficiency by 3 per cent.

Maruti also announced that it has added a new 0W16 grade engine oil to the Ecstar lineup. This product is said to offer improved fuel efficiency, thereby reducing CO2 emissions. All Maruti Suzuki cars will now be topped up with this oil straight from the factory. For more details, check out the press release below.
