The additive fuel was made to keep the engine clean, increasing longevity and keeping it running like new
The use of additive fuel is the best way to keep your car’s engine clean from the inside. It cleans and prevents carbon deposits and residue accumulations, helping in the greater longevity of the set. And a gasoline that is a reference in this matter is Shell V-Power.
Having this internal cleaning in the engine will provide performance and economy as if the car were new, again, delaying wear and tear. Not to mention that it avoids some corrective maintenance, such as decarbonization and cleaning of some components.

Shell V-Power stands out for cleaning up to 100% of the residues accumulated in the engine, restoring performance and is also the only fuel recommended by Scuderia Ferrari HP. Learn more about how gasoline with additives prevents problems with your car’s engine.

The burning of regular gasoline creates carbon deposits inside the engine’s combustion chambers. These residues from burning fuel accumulate over time and, in the long run, generate some problems.
The most common effect of this buildup is to lose performance, as these deposits make burning the fuel less efficient. Fuel consumption will also increase, as will emissions.
Carbon deposits can also raise engine temperature, increase oil consumption, and bring other failures. All of this can be prevented by using quality fuel.
Shell V-Power gasoline not only cleans carbon deposits, but also helps prevent them from forming. This ensures that the engine stays clean inside and always runs as if it were new, bringing greater durability.
Gilberto Pose, a fuel specialist at Raízen, a licensee of the Shell brand, explains the benefits of the new V-Power:
The new Shell V-Power gasoline brings the technology that delivers even more performance and performance, promoting rejuvenation in engine performance and providing a more efficient fuel burn”
Shell V-Power gasoline is the result of a global project, which was developed over five years. The goal was to bring the best additive to protect the engine, bring better performance and reduce fuel consumption. Pose talks more about this process:
Shell’s experience ensures the development of state-of-the-art fuels, always ahead of the performance needs of new engines and the requirements for regulating greenhouse gas emissions.”
According to Brand Tracking*, carried out by Ipsos, Shell V-Power is twice as much considered gasoline than the others by the public. It is also three times more preferred by consumers. Apparently, it’s no wonder that it’s the only one recommended by Scuderia Ferrari HP.
*Brand tracking study conducted by Ipsos at the request of Shell in Brazil in 4 waves on June 19, 2024 between June 2024 and March 2025. 600 online interviews were conducted per wave among men and women, from 18 to 64 years of age, ABC social classes, who are frequent drivers (drive at least 2x a week).
