ETS Racing Fuels - Sustainable fuel powering Kumho FIA TCR World Tour
From the upcoming season, the Kumho FIA TCR World Tour’s racing cars will be powered by the sustainable ETS Racing Fuels “Renewablaze TCR R50”.
The fuel - which was used last November 2024 in the Touring Car race of the FIA Motorsport Games at Valencia – is produced by Haltermann Carless at its Harwich production site in UK, one of the four sites where the company manufactures motorsport fuels.
Approved by WSC after been tested by TCR car manufacturers and in conformity with FIA requirements, the fuel is made from 50% of certified advanced sustainable materials, made from biomass waste, and it provides a 30% drop in greenhouse gas emissions compared to fossil fuels.
The fuel is certified by WSC and available to any other TCR series.
Haltermann Carless, founded in 1859, has a strong heritage in fuel production. In the 19th century, the company invented Petrol, working closely with automotive pioneers Carl Benz and Gottlieb Daimler. Since that time, the group has developed pioneering solutions for a variety of markets and is currently introducing sustainable fuels in motorsport, again in close cooperation with the major car manufacturers worldwide.
WSC President Marcello Lotti commented: “We are proud to give our contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions during the Kumho FIA TCR World Tour’s race meeting. The ETS Renewablaze TCR R50 sustainable fuel has proven to provide high performance while reducing the carbon footprint. And this is only the first step, as together with Haltermann Carless we are already aiming to further improve sustainability in the near future.”
Yann Labia, ETS Racing Fuels Global Manager added: “We are thrilled to partner with WSC to fuel the 2025 World Tour for the first time with our sustainable fuel. This fuel has been developed as a drop-in solution for TCR cars, with OEMs successfully testing it and confirming that no issues arose when using Renewablaze TCR R50. The 2025 season will provide an opportunity to demonstrate the fuel's performance across various geographic regions and climates, starting by Mexico, showcasing that sustainable fuel technologies are readily available to power internal combustion engines while helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. WSC & ETS will continue their cooperation aiming to demonstrate greater GHG savings in the near future.”
