One range. Two alternatives.
SUNSPEED® mirrors the existing ROWE range.
Thanks to a wide range of viscosities for passenger cars, we are able to offer a sustainable alternative lubricant for all.
In the future, we plan to offer a SUNSPEED® variant for every motor oil. These will be manufactured at the main plant in Worms, one of the most cutting-edge lubricant factories in Europe.

Performance that impresses.
ROWE SUNSPEED® has outstanding cold-start properties and exceeds the established CCS standard. A key factor for optimizing fuel consumption. Furthermore, the formulation exhibits minimal evaporation losses, even at very high temperatures, and achieves excellent NOACK ratings. A crucial criterion for optimized oil consumption and consistent oil quality.
ROWE SUNSPEED® offers top-rate efficiency, particularly for turbochargers, superchargers and hybrids.
ROWE SUNSPEED® has a high degree of application safety and can be used for topping off and refilling engines that were previously using conventional lubricants.
Outstanding cold-start properties
for optimized fuel consumption (in accordance with CCS)

ROWE SUNSPEED® : A lubricant
with a small carbon footprint
With its base oils made from 100 % biomass, ROWE SUNSPEED® is a sustainable alternative to mineral oil-based lubricants. The carbon footprint of the biosynthetic base oils, according to the cradle-to-gate assessment, is approx. -0.50 kg CO2-equivalent per kilogram of base oil. This negative figure comes about because the base oil is derived from plants which bind more CO2 during their growth phase than is released during the production process. So a negative becomes a positive for the environment.
The base oil's origin is not the sole contributory factor to the sustainability credentials of ROWE SUNSPEED®. The basic properties and the formulation itself ensure excellent cold start characteristics which in turn help to reduce and optimize fuel consumption. In addition, very low evaporation losses reduce oil consumption overall.
ROWE products are also fully CO2-compensated and are supplied in containers made from more than 50 % recycled materials.
BENEFITS
- Base oil made from 100 % renewable raw materials
- Negative carbon footprint (cradle-to-gate), positive effect on the environment
- Optimized fuel consumption thanks to excellent cold start properties.
- Reduced oil consumption thanks to very low evaporation losses.
-
Carbon dioxide (CO2), sunlight and soil nutrients are the starting materials for the biosynthesis of vegetable fats.
-
These vegetable fats are extracted and refined to produce vegetable oils which consist primarily of pure hydrocarbon molecules and are less prone to contamination compared with conventional base oils.
-
ROWE SUNSPEED® uses only these plant-based, synthetic base oils which come from renewable resources.
-
This base oil is an essential key component in the formulation of the end product – a high-quality motor oil that's an alternative to petroleum-based lubricants.
