Mercedes Benz India, ExxonMobil complete 30 year partnership

ExxonMobil recently commemorated 30 years of partnership with Mercedes-Benz India. The milestone event held at the Mercedes Benz India facility at Chakan, Pune, highlighted the collaboration between the two companies.

ExxonMobil has worked closely with Mercedes Benz to develop and supply synthetic motor oils meeting the evolving needs of their growing luxury portfolio in India comprising the A-Class Limousine, Mercedes Maybach S 580 limousines and SUVs like GLE and GLS, to name a few.

Mercedes Benz has relied on ExxonMobil to meet the lubrication needs of its premium and luxury cars to high-end consumers through their strong service and after-sales care network in India. This partnership has encompassed testing, field trials, and supply of high-quality fully synthetic engine oils to both the factory and service networks in the country. 

ExxonMobil has strengthened its presence in India with its investment to build a world-class lubricant-manufacturing plant in Maharashtra. 

Santosh Iyer, Managing Director and CEO, Mercedes-Benz India, said: "Mercedes-Benz and ExxonMobil share a common milestone of completing 30 years in India, having a shared vision of enhancing customer trust through continuous innovations."

"ExxonMobil has been our most trusted partner supporting Mercedes-Benz customers and dealer network with our motor oil supplies, especially during the peak of supply disruptions triggered by the pandemic. ExxonMobil’s products and services match our world-class offerings in India and underscore the customer passion that drives our collaborative spirit."

Vipin Rana, CEO – ExxonMobil Lubricants Pvt. Ltd., said: "As Mercedes-Benz India charts their next era of growth, we are committed to supporting their journey by providing best-in-class engine oils designed for their cars and enabling their dealers to delight the customers."
