GF-6A: Approved in 2020, offering enhanced protection for gasoline engines, with an emphasis on wear and deposit protection. It is suitable for engines that require high performance and reduced fuel consumption.
GF-5: Introduced in 2010, it concerns high-performance lubricants for gasoline engines. It provides improved wear protection, while contributing to reduced emissions and longer catalyst life.
GF-6B: Approved in 2020, for engines with greater fuel and deposit protection requirements, while also ensuring reduced fuel consumption and compatibility with the most modern emission systems.
GF-4: Approved in 2008, offering significant improvements in engine protection and cleanliness, while including new criteria for fuel efficiency and emission reduction, meeting the strictest pollution standards.
GF-3: Approved in 2004, it introduced increased requirements for protection against oxidation and oil deposits, while contributing to improved fuel economy and catalyst protection.
Viscosity: It reveals how viscous a lubricant is. It is determined by 2 numbers. The first with the letter "W" (Winter) refers to how the oil flows when it is cold. The second refers to how the oil flows hot under engine operating conditions.
Semi-Synthetic: Combination of synthetic and mineral oils. They offer better performance than traditional mineral oils, while being more economical than synthetic ones. Ideal for mid-range vehicles.
Synthetic: Oils created from chemical compounds, aimed at providing high performance and protection for the engine. They have a homogeneous composition and greater resistance to extreme temperatures. Ideal for modern high-performance engines.
