TOTAL QUARTZ and Network18 shine a light on those who keep our wheels moving

From their shops to emergency roadside stops, our trusted and hardworking mechanics have gone wherever duty has called them, helping to keep our vehicles in shape. Now it’s time to celebrate the efforts of these TOTAL QUARTZ Engine Ke Superstars. In a world that depends on rapid mobility, mechanics, who are our primary recourse in case of vehicle repair and maintenance, play a pivotal role in keeping our wheels moving. Their ingenuity, evolving skills and willingness to serve are hallmarks of their profession. In the past year, these qualities have become beacons to more people, not just as a source of timely assistance, but also as a template for coping with the changed circumstances. That’s why our mechanics deserve a platform, to showcase their efforts to keep the country moving. Total Oil India Pvt Ltd. partnered with Network18 to reprise their celebrated Engine Ke Superstars initiative for a Season 2. In its inaugural season, the initiative by Total, put the mechanic community in the spotlight, with 1,500 garages surveyed on issues facing the vehicle repair and maintenance industry. The top 100 garages and their owners were felicitated at a special event. In the second season of TOTAL QUARTZ Engine Ke Superstars, the bar is raised further, as we discover champion mechanics, who have turned the challenges posed by the pandemic into opportunities to upskill themselves and adapt to the new normal.

Though the curbs on movement affected them and their businesses directly, mechanics responded with fresh ideas and an unshakeable dedication to the cause. They epitomized the spirit of resilience by leveraging digital tools to reach out to their customers, train and equip a new generation of mechanics and create networks to support each other. In the course of their actions, they set a new example for progressive thinking, demonstrated a commitment to service, and spawned actions that will find the spotlight.. Through this initiative by TOTAL QUARTZ and Network18, we can express our collective gratitude towards our mechanics, and applaud the efforts they have made to keep our wheels moving.
