Aubervilliers, January 20, 2026 – With 20 years of involvement in Rétromobile, Motul continues its long-standing partnership with the show, the must-attend event for classic vehicle enthusiasts, taking place from January 28 to February 1, 2026, at Paris Expo – Porte de Versailles.

 

Located in Hall 7.2, the Motul booth (D086), entirely redesigned and presented in the brand’s new visual identity, will highlight Motul’s historic expertise, built on more than 170 years of experience. Through this new concept, Motul aims to showcase not only its heritage, but above all its technical legacy, illustrating its long-standing role as a partner to mobility players, committed to reducing friction in the service of performance.

 

Motul expertise at the heart of the experience

At Rétromobile 2026, Motul will spotlight “craft,” a founding value of its brand DNA: an approach based on a high level of technical expertise and tailor-made solutions designed to support the performance of its partners. This know-how is notably expressed through the partnership with British car manufacturer Caterham, in place since 2019, illustrating Motul’s ability to support each vehicle with the appropriate level of expertise and technical rigor, both on the road and on the track. On the booth, this approach will be embodied by the presentation of two iconic models from Caterham’s history: the Super Seven 2000 and the Seven K-Series.

 

A lasting commitment to preserving automotive heritage

Committed to safeguarding automotive heritage, Motul continues its partnership with the Fondation du Patrimoine at Rétromobile, initiated in 2008. This commitment is notably expressed through the Motul Grand Prix, which each year honors a remarkable vehicle for its historical value, state of preservation, and the quality of its restoration.

On January 27, during the show’s preview evening, Motul will present the 2026 Motul Grand Prix. The winning vehicle, a Simca-Gordini Type 8, will be exhibited throughout the show on the stand of the Fédération Française des Véhicules d’Époque (FFVE), located near the Motul stand.
