Our investment in research and development in Formula 1TM has one main purpose: to develop better fuels for our customers and their cars around the world.
Discover the performance power of the Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ fuel family. Our latest generation of premium performance fuel, Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ 93 is the only fuel used, trusted and recommended by Scuderia Ferrari.
Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ 93 delivers our very best performance and is now available at select sites in British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario. You can also find Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ 91 across Canada!
We hear “gasoline is gasoline” pretty often and it’s simply not true. For more than 70 years our Innovation Partnership with Scuderia Ferrari has delivered bespoke formulations of Shell V-Power® race fuel. Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ 93 contains 99% of the same compounds used in the Formula 1 Scuderia Ferrari V6 engines and delivers improved performance for your vehicle.*
Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ is formulated with four levels of defence designed to quickly get to the surfaces of critical engine components, forming a protective barrier against four threats to an engine:
In addition to being engineered with those four levels of defence, Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ keeps your engine running like new* with:

Gunk
Wear
Corrosion
Friction
Gunk is another name for carbon deposits that can build up on intake valves and fuel injectors, which can make your engine work less efficiently. Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ has 70% of baked-in deposits left by lower-quality premium gasoline, starting with the very first tank.**
Wear can occur slowly, over time, when two metal surfaces rub against each other, leading to loss of metal from those surfaces. Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ provides our best protection against wear and tear in your engine.
Corrosion is caused by moisture and other contaminants that can make their way into a vehicle’s fuel tank. Formation of particles from corrosive processes such as rusting of steel surfaces can contribute to the blockage of fuel filters, impacting overall vehicle operation. Shell V-Power® NiTRO+ is formulated with a unique agent to provide unbeatable protection against corrosion.
Friction in your engine occurs as piston rings move against cylinder walls, generating heat, wasting energy, and reducing the overall efficiency of your engine. Too much friction can also damage metal surfaces, increasing wear on critical engine parts. Our proprietary technology provides our best protection against friction by filling in the rough spots in your engine, forming a protective layer to help reduce friction and improve efficiency.
