European Oil for European Vehicles
AMSOIL
Synthetic 5W-40 European Car Formula surpasses the requirements
of the most stringent European motor oil specifications.
Motor oil and motor oil specifications
are quite different between the United States and Europe.
Due to government corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) requirements,
U.S. motor oil specifications place more importance on fuel
economy. European specifications place more emphasis on engine
protection due to the longer recommended oil drain intervals
in Europe. Differences between American and European vehicle
designs also affect the requirements placed on motor oils.
European vehicles tend to be equipped with smaller engines
with higher power densities, while American vehicles are larger
an have larger displacement engines.
The American Petroleum Institute
(API) has one current motor oil specification for gasoline
engines and another for diesel engines, while the European
ACEA system has multiple light duty oil specifications for
gasoline and diesel engines. Individual automotive manufacturers
select one of the specifications and usually add their own
stringent requirements. When an oil is approved by a specific
manufacturer, it is simply added to the manufacturer's approved
list.
Due to the high motor oil quality
standards, both motor oil prices and recommended drain intervals
are substantially higher in Europe than in the U.S. Typical
oil drain intervals are between 10,000 and 18,000 plus miles
and and oil change can cost hundreds of dollars. Since each
manufacturer has its own specific motor oil requirements,
most consumers bring their vehicles to the dealer for oil
changes.
Using conventional American
motor oils in European vehicles will usually not fulfill that
vehicle's requirements. Therefore, offering motor oils that
fulfill European OEM specifications gives retail outlets and
quick lubes a distinct advantage over their competition, allowing
them to reach a new segment of customers and increase sales.

THE
NOACK Volatility Test
The NOACK
Volatility Test determines the evaporation loss
of lubricants in high temperature service. The more
motor oils vaporize, the thicker and heavier they become,
contributing to poor circulation, reduced fuel economy
and increased oil consumption, wear and emissions. AMSOIL
Synthetic Motor Oil resists high temperature volatization
better than other motor oils. AMSOIL Synthetic Motor
Oil maintains peak fuel efficiency and reduces oil consumption
and emissions. |
