The Society of Automotive Engineers ( SAE) recently introduced new specifications concerning low viscosity in the J300 motor oil classifications. These new specifications will help OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) to achieve the increasingly stringent requirements in terms of fuel economy. However, this extremely low viscosity may bring many challenges concerning sustainability. Let us explain.
ACEA, Association des Constructeurs Européens d’Automobiles, is an organisation of the fifteen most important automobile manufacturers in Europe. They are responsible for, among other things, defining certain specifications and requirements relating to motor oils for passenger vehicles, vans, trucks and buses.
