Overview
MOTUL 300V LE MANS 10W-60 is a racing motor oil for all racing petrol or Diesel engines — naturally aspirated, turbocharged or supercharged, with direct/indirect injection or carburetted — built for tuned engines and high-performance cars operating over a wide rpm and temperature range in severe driving conditions. As part of the 300V Le Mans range, its higher-viscosity grade brings maximum reliability in extreme conditions and copes with engines subject to HIGH oil dilution from unburned fuel and high clearances, distinguishing it from the standard 300V Competition line. Formulated with proprietary ESTER Core® Technology and suitable for all fuel types including biofuels.
Compatibility
Compatibility information not available.
Key Features
- ESTER Core® Technology — proprietary synthetic ester base, built from organic/non-fossil renewable base materials (25% lower manufacturing carbon footprint), for maximum power output via friction reduction at all rpm
- High shear stability for maximal oil film resistance and reduced engine wear
- Increased oxidation resistance for longer engine and oil life
- Maximal polar adherence for rapid engine rpm response and improved driveability
- Fast oil pressure build-up and optimal oil flow at cold start
- Low oil volatility/evaporation to help control oil consumption
- High detergency for engine cleanliness; lower friction reduces engine noise
- Le Mans-grade formulation copes with HIGH oil dilution from unburned fuel, suited to engines featuring high clearances
- Compatible with biofuels, including Ethanol
Applications
- Racing/competition petrol and Diesel engines — naturally aspirated, turbocharged or supercharged, fitted with injection (direct/indirect) or carburetted
- Tuned engines and high-performance cars operating over a wide range of rpm and temperatures, in severe driving conditions
- Circuit, Drag race, Drift, Endurance, GT, Hill climb, Historic racing, Rally, Rally cross, Track days, Tuning use
- Particularly recommended for endurance, drift, or historic racing (rebuilt) engines requiring high wear protection and very stable/consistent oil pressure
- Engines featuring high clearances and subject to high oil dilution from unburned fuel
- Vehicles running biofuels, including Ethanol

Directions for Use
Adapt/choose the correct 300V viscosity grade per your owner's manual or tuning service partner's recommendation. Avoid mixing with other synthetic or mineral lubricants, to guarantee optimal performance. Oil change interval: consult your tuning service partner for the appropriate drain interval, tuned to your own use. Dispose of used oil responsibly at an authorised collection point.
Installation and usage guidance is general reference only. Manufacturer instructions take precedence. Visitors uncertain about installation or use should seek professional advice.
FAQ
How does Motul 300V Le Mans 10W-60 differ from the standard 300V Competition line?
The Le Mans line uses a higher viscosity grade rated for HIGH oil dilution and high-clearance engines, aimed at endurance and historic racing, versus the Competition line's "mild" dilution tolerance.
What technology does it use?
It uses Motul's proprietary ESTER Core® Technology, a synthetic ester base developed to maximize engine power output and wear protection without compromising reliability.
Is it compatible with ethanol fuels?
Yes, it is suitable for biofuels including Ethanol.
