MONTREAL, July 8, 2025 /CNW/ - TotalEnergies Marketing Canada Inc. proudly announces the launch of Quartz EV-Drive R 3.1, a next-generation synthetic fluid engineered specifically for electric drivetrain reducers. This marks a significant milestone as TotalEnergies becomes the first major supplier in Canada to offer a fluid tailored to the extreme demands of modern electric vehicles (EVs), reinforcing our commitment to innovation and sustainability.
Innovation at the Core
New technical constraints for the electrification of vehicles require the development of new fluids that must meet the following properties.

- Compatibility Augmented Technology : Compatibility properties with copper & insulating materials.
- Thermal Control : Thermal properties to enhance heat transfer & cooling capability.
- Insulation : Dielectric properties to prevent short-circuits and static charge build-up.
This launch is part of a broader innovation roadmap that includes:
- Quartz 0W-8 ultra-low viscosity engine oil launched in 2024, developed to reduce friction and improve fuel economy in hybrid and electric vehicles.
- Fluidsyn launched in 2024, our high-performance synthetic base fluid platform that underpins many of our advanced formulations.
- Quartz 0W-12 launching this fall, which will further push the boundaries of efficiency and protection in next-gen powertrains.
