XCS Complete Combustion System
Petron Fuels Change at XCS Launch
posted 14 May 2007
The invitation card stated: “We’re fueling change….”
Guests to the Petron XCS launch party held at the NBC Tent at The Fort last April 24 were treated to a blast off not usually seen in the staid oil industry. After all, how does one get excited about—of all things—gasoline?
Judging by the crowd that turned up (and on time!), there was plenty to get excited about. First, the trio of young race drivers that Petron advertising manager Charmaine Canillas has roped in to endorse the new XCS—Tyson Sy, Matteo Guidicelli and Mark Bumgarner. These are names (and faces) that speed buffs definitely recognize. The promise of unrelenting power from the new Petron XCS Complete Combustion System is guaranteed by these up-and-coming champions. Tyson Sy was unable to attend the party as he was competing in the US, but Matteo and Mark charmed the ladies with their boyish good looks.
On the glamour front, to signify their support for the first-ever gasoline with an earth-friendly organic additive, Miss Earth 2006 Hil Hernandez of Chile graced the event with Miss Philippines-Earth 2006 Catherine Yu Untalan and her court. In the presence of such loveliness, committed environmentalists will surely find the Petron XCS sexy, with its additive formulation made from natural materials.
Heads turned when the reigning Bb. Pilipinas 2007 beauties glided in to add glamor to the occasion. Margaret Wilson (World), Anna Theresa Licaros (Universe) and Nadia Lee Cien Shami (International) were accompanied by runners-up Leizel Verses and Abigail Lesley Cruz to the delight of the male guests.
Hosting the event was Epy Quizon, who appeared in the first Pagudpud-Sorsogon Petron Xtra Unleaded commercial with Philippine motorsports legend Pocholo Ramirez. With him was Korean DJ/host Sam Oh—you can catch her on Rated Oh! at the Entertainment Channel—an increasingly ubiquitous fixture in the corporate events landscape.
Flying in from the UK and Singapore were Innospec executives Dr. Miltos Papachristos, regional director for Asia Pacific fuel specialties, and Lawrence Chia, regional sales director for Southeast Asia & Oceania. Innospec is the global market leader in fuel additive technology to improve fuel efficiency, boost engine performance, and ensure cleaner emissions. As Petron’s technology partner, Innospec developed the proprietary organic additive that makes the new Petron XCS the only one of its kind in the world market.
With that kind of world-leading innovative technology, do we need to ask what all the buzz is about? Whether you’re into speed, or environment-protection, or simply wish to breathe new life into your car, the new Petron XCS Complete Combustion System is a lifestyle decision-—it’s your “Fuel Change” option.
