Imagine your vehicle maintaining new-car levels of power and fuel efficiency even after 120,000 kilometers on the road. This is no longer just a dream, thanks to NGK's Premium RX spark plugs, which are setting new standards for durability and performance.
NGK Premium RX: The Most Advanced Spark Plug in NGK's History
Representing the pinnacle of spark plug technology, the NGK Premium RX incorporates groundbreaking innovations. This premium spark plug features the world's first ruthenium alloy center electrode combined with a platinum-tipped oval-shaped ground electrode, delivering exceptional ignition performance, reduced fuel consumption, superior anti-fouling capabilities, and unprecedented longevity.
Core Technology Explained: Ruthenium and Platinum Electrodes
-
Ruthenium Alloy Center Electrode: Ruthenium is a rare metal with an extremely high melting point and outstanding oxidation resistance. When used in spark plug electrodes, it significantly improves erosion resistance while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity for reliable ignition under all conditions.
-
Platinum-Tipped Oval Ground Electrode: Platinum's superior corrosion resistance protects the electrode from oxidation in high-temperature, high-pressure environments. The oval shape optimizes electrical field distribution around the electrode, reducing required voltage while improving ignition reliability.
Extended Service Life: Six Times Longer Than Conventional Plugs
The NGK Premium RX's most remarkable feature is its extraordinary service interval. NGK recommends replacement at 120,000 km for standard passenger vehicles and 60,000 km for light-duty vehicles - compared to just 20,000 km and 10,000 km respectively for conventional nickel-alloy spark plugs. This means one NGK Premium RX installation equals six conventional spark plug replacements, dramatically reducing maintenance time and costs.
Performance Benefits: Comprehensive Engine Improvement
Beyond exceptional longevity, the NGK Premium RX delivers measurable performance enhancements:
-
Fuel Economy: Improved combustion efficiency reduces fuel consumption by approximately 2.2% during normal operation and 1.9% at idle.
-
Starting Performance: Superior ignition characteristics reduce engine start time by 0.67 seconds.
-
Acceleration: Faster ignition and more complete combustion improve 30-70 km/h acceleration by 0.5 seconds.
Racing Heritage: Proven Under Extreme Conditions
NGK's spark plug technology has been proven in the most demanding motorsport environments, including championship-winning vehicles in the 24 Hours of Le Mans (Mazda 787B), World Rally Championship (Subaru Impreza 555), and Formula One. This racing DNA ensures the Premium RX delivers reliable performance under all driving conditions.
