The TotalEnergies oil range includes the Quartz Xtra, Quartz Ineo, Quartz 9000, and Quartz 7000 series, which are the most popular among drivers and repair shops. Each of them meets strict quality requirements and has been designed for specific engine types and operating conditions.
TotalEnergies is a global energy company and one of the world's largest manufacturers of motor oils. Its range of products for passenger cars alone includes several dozen products designed for different engine designs and drive technologies.
With over 70 years of experience in working with oil bases, additives, and modern formulations, Quartz oils meet even the most demanding OEM standards. Each product undergoes advanced laboratory and operational testing, and the approvals obtained confirm full compatibility with specific engine brands.
How to navigate the TotalEnergies offer?
To make your choice easier, TotalEnergies engine oils have been divided into five basic series:
- Quartz Xtra,
- Quartz Ineo,
- Quartz 9000,
- Quartz 7000,
- Quartz 5000.
Quartz Xtra, Quartz Ineo, Quartz 9000, and Quartz 7000 currently account for the largest share of sales. Knowing the basic differences between these series allows you to better understand the offer before referring to detailed approvals or the oil selection configurator available on the TotalEnergies website.
Quartz Xtra – a breakthrough in the protection of modern engines
This range includes the most advanced engine oils in the TotalEnergies range, developed for the latest gasoline engine designs. One example is Quartz Ineo Xtra EC6 0W-20, one of the first oils in the world to meet the requirements of the ILSAC GF-7 specification introduced in 2025 and the corresponding API SQ standard.
The new standards place extremely stringent requirements on lubricants in terms of engine protection and energy efficiency. Quartz Ineo Xtra EC6 0W-20 oil ensures, among other things, higher fuel economy and reduced CO₂ emissions, improved piston cleanliness and oxidation resistance, protection against LSPI throughout its service life, as well as reduced timing chain wear and improved pumpability at low temperatures.
Compatibility with modern exhaust gas treatment systems is also an important factor. Quartz Ineo Xtra EC6 0W-20 has a reduced sulfate ash content, which promotes the proper operation of GPF particulate filters. The oil has also undergone new gelation tests and extended seal compatibility tests.
It is worth remembering that products that meet API SQ and ILSAC GF-7 standards can also be used in engines that require earlier standards.
Quartz Ineo – protection for modern exhaust gas treatment systems
The Quartz Ineo series includes high-quality synthetic oils, specially developed for engines equipped with particulate filters and other exhaust gas purification systems. These products meet the requirements of Low SAPS standards and are recommended for modern gasoline and diesel vehicles.
Thanks to Age-Resistance technology, Quartz Ineo oils form a durable oil film that effectively protects engine components from wear and oxidation, even at extreme temperatures.
The most important features of the Quartz Ineo series are: high oxidation resistance, fuel economy, Low SAPS formula compliance, and a wide range of OEM approvals. The range is available in 0W-30, 5W-20, 5W-30, and 5W-40 viscosity grades.
Quartz 9000 – high-quality oils manufactured using synthetic technology
Quartz 9000 is a range of synthetic oils designed for engines not equipped with particulate filters. Thanks to its wide range of viscosities and applications, it is ideal for both older designs and engines operated in a variety of conditions.
Quartz 9000 oils, also based on Age-Resistance technology, provide a high level of wear protection, stability at high temperatures, and very good performance during frequent starts. The Quartz 9000 series features excellent oxidation protection, fuel economy, Low SAPS compatibility, and OEM approvals.
This range is available in five viscosity grades: 0W-20, 0W-30, 0W-40, 5W-30, and 5W-40. In addition, this group includes two special oils – Quartz Racing 10W-50 and 10W-60 – designed for sports cars or cars with above-average loads.
Quartz 7000 – cleanliness of the drive unit in older designs
TotalEnergies Quartz 7000 is a range of semi-synthetic oils available in the popular 10W-40 viscosity class. The Clean-Shield technology used in these oils effectively reduces the formation of deposits and helps keep the engine clean throughout the entire period between oil changes.
The most important features of the Quartz 7000 series include: high engine cleanliness, compliance with the Normal SAPS formula, and OEM approvals.
Summary
The TotalEnergies range of engine oils has been designed to meet the needs of virtually all types of engines found on the European market. The division into product series facilitates initial orientation, but the key criteria for oil selection remain the approvals and requirements of engine manufacturers.
In simple terms:
- Quartz Xtra are the most advanced synthetic oils for modern gasoline engines, meeting the latest API and ILSAC standards.
- Quartz Ineo are synthetic oils for modern engines with particulate filters.
- Quartz 9000 are synthetic oils for engines without DPF.
- Quartz 7000 are semi-synthetic oils for older designs, focused on keeping the engine clean.
