General Details:
Motul Hybrid 0w-16 is a fully synthetic fuel economy engine oil specially designed for hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and battery electric vehicles.
Application:
Specially designed for Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) fitted with recent petrol engines, turbocharged or naturally aspirated, direct or indirect injection, designed to use SAE 0w-16 oil with low friction and very low HTHS (High Temperature High Shear) viscosity.
Also suitable for modern petrol engines requiring a viscosity grade 0w-16 lubricant or a fuel economy lubricant, as well as battery electric vehicles (BEV) fitted with thermal petrol engine used as Range Extender.
Compatible with catalytic converters.
This oil can be mixed with synthetic or mineral oils.
Benefits:
- Outstanding oxidation resistance, better anti-deposits protection, better engine cleanliness, anti-wear protection and enhanced performance at cold temperature for fuel economy savings during the whole oil life span
- High performance and improved protection against LSPI phenomenon for downsized direct injection turbocharged petrol engines
- Allows extended drain intervals
- Enhanced pistons/rings cleanliness, seals compatibility and reduced content of phosphorus for after treatment systems compatibility
- Minimises lubricant hydrodynamic friction, allowing significant fuel economy benefits especially when the oil is cold
- Improves oil flow at start up, delivers faster oil pressure build up, faster rev raisings and allows reaching operating temperature faster
- Specially formulated to meet the specific needs of hybrid electric vehicles, such as HEV, PHEV and BEV with Range Extender
- Environment friendly - allows fuel consumption reduction and therefore minimises greenhouse gases (CO2) emissions
* The API SP standard is fully backward compatible over API SN requirements and all former API standards
