Synthetic bio-sourced Fuel economy engine oil specially designed for Hybrid Electric Vehicles (H.E.V) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (P.H.E.V) fitted with recent gasoline engines, turbocharged or naturally aspirated, direct or indirect injection, designed to use SAE 0W-8 oil with low friction and low HTHS (High Temperature High Shear) viscosity (â 1.7 mPa.s). MOTUL NGEN HYBRID 0W-8 is especially formulated for the technical challenges imposed by Gasoline Hybrid cars, such as fuel dilution, water emulsion, high numbers of stop/start events and lower oil temperature conditions. This state-of-the-art formulation is part of a whole new Motul sustainable concept as it contains 25% of Organic base (100% renewable plant-based synthetic base stocks) and is filled in a 50% recycled and 100% recyclable Motul can. This Organic base using non-fossil renewable materials is limiting the environmental impact and allows Motul to lower its carbon footprint by 25% during manufacturing. MOTUL NGEN is the common naming to qualify the sustainable ranges at Motul, using different technologies into the formulations and packaging to reduce its carbon footprint. This dedicated formula can also be used for gasoline engines requiring a viscosity grade SAE 0W-8 lubricant or a ÄúFuel EconomyÄù lubricant in viscosity grade 8:Standard JASO GLV-1. MOTUL NGEN HYBRID 0W-8 is also suitable for battery electric vehicles (B.E.V) fitted with thermal gasoline engine used as Range Extender. Compatible with catalytic converters and particulate filters. This type of oil may be unsuitable for use in some engines. Refer to the owner manual if in doubt.
