STIHL and Haltermann Carless Launch MotoMix 100 Renewable Fuel

· Lubricants & Chemicals · Germany

STIHL and Haltermann Carless have launched MotoMix 100, a specialist fuel for two-stroke engines made from biogenic feedstocks and certified bio-circular material. The fuel achieves a 60% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared with fossil fuel. Of the feedstocks used, 55% come from biogenic sources, according to the items, which describe the blend as built on certified bio-circular material. The product targets small two-stroke engines such as those in outdoor power equipment, a niche where fuel formulation and emissions performance are tightly regulated. For the fuels and chemicals sector, it is an example of branded, drop-in renewable blends moving into specialised equipment markets rather than only road transport, where adoption has so far concentrated.

Why it matters:It shows renewable drop-in fuels extending beyond road transport into specialised small-engine equipment, widening the addressable market for formulated fuel blends.

Key points

  • MotoMix 100 is designed for two-stroke engines.
  • It claims a 60% greenhouse gas reduction versus fossil fuel.
  • 55% of feedstocks are biogenic, per the items.
