Motul and Caterham renew performance partnership
Motul and Caterham have renewed their partnership, bringing together Caterham’s lightweight sports car expertise and Motul’s long-standing know-how in high-performance lubrication, built on more than 170 years of experience.
The new long-term agreement means that every new Caterham Seven built at the Caterham HQ in Dartford, UK will have their first fill of lubricants supplied by Motul – from the road-going 170 to every new race car across all five Caterham Motorsport UK Championships.
As part of the partnership, Motul will also become the title sponsor of the Caterham Seven Championship UK for the 2026 season, the top-tier Caterham racing series in the UK.
Motul and Caterham launched their new partnership at the 2026 edition of Rétromobile in Paris, showcasing two Caterham Sevens, a 2005 K-Series and a 2025 Super Seven 2000, for visitors of the show to see on the Motul stand.
Renowned worldwide as a high-performance and motorsport focused creator and developer of tailor-made fluid solutions, Motul says it has been a key part of automotive success for decades, providing lubricants that deliver reliability and performance.
As a long-standing partner of globally acclaimed motorsport events such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans and the Dakar Rally, Motul applies its technical expertise and R&D capabilities to create the highest quality lubricants for whatever the requirement.
Ali McColl, global head of marketing at Caterham, said Motul brings “a depth of experience in performance and efficiency that few other partners can offer”.
Andreea Culcea, chief brand and communication officer, Motul, added: “We are proud to renew our partnership with Caterham, a brand renowned for its exceptional sports car expertise. Since 2019, our collaboration has been driven by shared values of performance, craft and precision.
“At Motul, we are developing tailor-made solutions designed to unlock the full potential of our partners’ machines. Working alongside a manufacturer like Caterham, where hand-crafted, limited-production cars are born from deep engineering know-how and passion, reflects our vision of authentic partnerships.”
