RAVENOL at the Essen Motor Show 2025: Next-Generation Racing Performance and Care Products

The Essen Motor Show 2025, which once again attracted more than 200,000 visitors over ten days at Messe Essen, impressively reaffirmed its status as one of Europe’s largest and most important events for performance, motorsport, and tuning. For RAVENOL, the event provided an ideal opportunity to showcase cutting-edge lubricant technologies, new racing products, and the expansion of key motorsport partnerships. A particular highlight was the deepened collaboration with the ADAC Nürburgring Endurance Series (NLS). During the show, it was officially announced that the traditional racing series will now be named the "ADAC RAVENOL Nürburgring Endurance Series" – a major milestone that elevates the successful partnership to a new level. RAVENOL has been the exclusive lubricant partner of the NLS since the 2024 season and is now making a strong statement about its long-term commitment to the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife and international endurance racing by taking on the title sponsorship.

In Hall 3 – the hub for manufacturers, racing series, and motorsport organizations – RAVENOL was surrounded by numerous long-standing partners, reflecting the brand’s broad and well-established motorsport network. These included DTM, ADAC Motorsport, the Nürburgring Circuit Challenge (RCN), as well as the iconic German racetracks Nürburgring and Hockenheimring. At the DTM booth, visitors could see a Ford Mustang GT3 from Haupt Racing Team in the distinctive blue and yellow RAVENOL livery – a true eye-catcher that emphasized the close partnership in top-tier motorsport.

RAVENOL also had a strong presence in Hall 7, where ABT Motorsport exhibited the Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 at the H&R Spezialfedern booth – the car to be used by the team in the ADAC RAVENOL 24h Race 2025 – drawing the attention of many enthusiastic visitors. At the Rally Dakar booth, the Walcher and X-raid teams presented their impressive rally vehicles, which have relied on RAVENOL products for years to tackle the most extreme terrain. In Hall 8, Gerd Habermann Racing attracted plenty of attention with their high-powered drag racing vehicles, further demonstrating the diverse scope of RAVENOL's partnerships in global motorsport.

Among the product highlights was the introduction of RAVENOL Racing Brake Fluid R 340+, featuring a dry boiling point of 342°C and a wet boiling point (WERBP) of 210°C – offering exceptional thermal reserves even under the most demanding racing conditions. This high-performance brake fluid ensures consistent, reliable, and precise braking across the full temperature range – ideal for both sprint and endurance races, as well as heavy-duty applications where the braking system is pushed to its limits.

Once again, the Essen Motor Show 2025 proved to be a lively meeting point for the performance community, exciting car lovers from across Europe. RAVENOL sees itself as part of this vibrant scene and used the event to engage with fans, partners, and customers. A special highlight was the visit by YouTubers and RAVENOL partners Jean-Pierre Zimmer (Motoren Zimmer) and Zoki Speed (Speed Engineering), who contributed technical insights, lively discussions, and drew significant attention within the community. With a dedicated trade show team on-site, RAVENOL established numerous new contacts and strengthened existing relationships. The company looks back on a highly successful presence, setting important momentum for future projects and developments.
