Fuel economy and reduction of carbon emissions is one of the primary drivers of modern engine technology today. This, in turn, plays an important factor in motor oil formulation. Automotive OEMs are planning more compact, higher-powered engines with technologies such as gasoline direct injection (GDI) and turbocharging to improve fuel efficiency. As a result, lubricant manufacturers need to provide products that enable these newer engines to perform as intended and meet increasingly stringent fuel economy and emissions requirements. As engine technology continues to advance, oil producers have standards they must meet. Originally developed in 2010 exclusively for GM vehicles, dexos1™ engine oil specification has since been embraced globally as a model for high-quality, robust oil formulated to the industry’s most demanding specifications.
