TotalEnergies Raises Engine Oil Prices in Egypt Starting Today

TotalEnergies Marketing Egypt has raised prices on its gasoline engine oils in the local market, effective today, October 7. The hike covers 10 products.

The numbers tell the story. Increases ranged from 30 to 225 Egyptian pounds per package, while gear oils and other fluids held steady at September levels. All listed prices include value-added tax, as the company confirmed.

Why does this matter for Egyptian drivers? Because TotalEnergies oils are a staple at service centers, and any increase feeds directly into the routine maintenance bill for millions of passenger and transport vehicles. The impact varies depending on oil type and package size.

TotalEnergies Passenger Car Oil Prices After the Increase

Quartz Extra 0W-20 leads the pack. The 1-liter bottle now costs 795 EGP, the 4-liter package sits at 2,985 EGP. The 5-liter pack reaches 3,550 EGP. Quartz Ineo 5W-40 and 5W-30 each hit 780 EGP for 1 liter and 2,950 EGP for the 4-liter pack.

In the semi-synthetic segment, Quartz 7000 10W-40 climbed to 390 EGP per liter, 1,415 EGP for the 4-liter pack, and 1,700 EGP for 5 liters. Quartz 7000 15W-50 landed at 1,245 EGP for 4 liters and 1,495 EGP for the 5-liter container.

Economy Oils and the Commercial Transport Segment

Economy-grade oils kept a relative edge despite the hike. Quartz 5000 20W-50 costs 297 EGP for a single liter and 1,145 EGP for a 4-liter pack. Quartz 3000 20W-50 reached 226 EGP for 1 liter, 880 EGP for a 4-liter pack. 1,050 EGP for 5 liters.

Motor Oil grades for diesel engines and light commercial use ranged between 198 and 217 EGP per liter, and 755 to 840 EGP for a 4-liter container. This tier covers transport vehicles, motorcycles, and commercial-purpose fleets across Egypt.

Context matters here. Rising engine oil prices in Egypt come amid mounting operational pressure on lubricant suppliers, from import costs to global base oil prices. TotalEnergies, however, left gear oils and specialty fluids untouched, signaling the increase targeted gasoline engine oils specifically.

What does this mean for car owners? A 30 to 225 EGP increase per package may look modest, but it stacks alongside periodic maintenance costs and other components. A routine 10,000-kilometer service interval could see a noticeable bump in the oil line item, especially for drivers running full-synthetic grades.

Common Questions About the TotalEnergies Oil Price Increase

Did every TotalEnergies product go up? No. The increase covered gasoline engine oils only, while gear oils and specialty fluids remained at September rates. The company confirmed that listed prices include VAT and serve passenger cars, motorcycles, and transport vehicles.

Will the hikes continue? No further increases have been announced so far, but Egypt's lubricants sector has seen repeated price movements. The new list took effect on October 7. Any future adjustments will be communicated through official distribution channels.
