This follows the introduction of the Total Hi-Perf-Bajaj Lubricant targeting two and three wheelers. The Lubricant will be produced locally in Total Kenya’s Mombasa based blending plant.

“Kenya is the first country to roll out the use of Total Hi-Perf-Bajaj Lubricant in Africa. This partnership was officially inked on the 30th January 2019. The partnership offers and enhanced after-sale service by availing a product with superior technical capability demanded in the target segment.” said the Managing Director of Total Kenya Mr. Olagoke Aluko during the launch.

This Lubricant’s formulation will benefit motorcyclists owing to longer service intervals which translate to reduced running costs. Currently, majority of boda-boda riders consume 12 litres of lubricant per annum per unit. The lubricant will supplement the existing Total Kenya lubricants as the firm continuously innovates solutions that cater for all engine oil needs.

Each is estimated to be making an average of Sh1,000 a day hence creating multi-billion sector. The new range of lubricants will be available in all Bajaj dealerships and networks and Total service stations countrywide. Following a successful pilot launch of the Total Hi-Perf-Bajaj in Kenya, a co-branded similar projected is set to be unveiled in 15 other African countries.
