Lubricant major Castrol today announced that as part of its partnership with Ford Motor Co in the Asia-Pacific region, it will provide dedicated support to the OEM in India. 

This includes supplying engine and transmission oils to the Ford dealer network in India, and also working together for joint development and co-engineering of products that will further enhance performance efficiency of Ford vehicles.
