CITROËN and TOTAL
A partnership of expertise
For 39 years, the research teams of CITROëN and
TOTAL have combined their know-how to offer you
the best engine/lubricant combination available. Cut-
ting edge technology for your benefit. With TOTAL, you
can be sure to have chosen the benchmark oil that best
guarantees your CITROëN’s performance and life-ex-
pectancy.
A partnership for the environment
TOTAL oils support CITROëN’s advances in fuel economy,
and C02and harmful emission reductions.
The development of new generation oils specially adapted
for Particle Filters, like TOTAL ACTIVA/QUARTZ INEO
ECS can reduce C02emissions by a tonne* and save a
tank of fuel each year**.
* Official C02emissions reduction of 4 g per km (approx. 6 g per mile). Corresponds to a reduction in C02emissions
of 1 tonne throughout the life of the vehicle, on a private diesel vehicle with an average life expectancy estimated
at 250 000 km (approx. 160 000 miles). Source: TOTAL.
** Or 30 L, average quantity of fuel required to fill a tank at a petrol station. Result obtained using TOTAL ACTIVA/
QUARTZ INEO ECS oil instead of a traditional 15W-40 oil, on a CITROëN C4 1.6 HDi, whose average fuel con-
sumption is 58.9 mpg (4.8 L/100 km), travelling 18 000 km (approx. 12 000 miles) per year. Source: TOTAL
A partnership of success
Competitive successes in the national rallies of the World Rally Championship
bear testament to the performance and efficiency of the CITROëN – TOTAL
partnership.
