Unique Challenges of Hybrid Cars
Drivers love their fuel-sipping hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) for their great fuel economy and their ability to whoosh silently through neighborhoods on electric power alone. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles use juice from home outlets and public charging stations to increase the miles driven on electricity.
With excellent fuel economy and an environmentally-friendly powertrain, it’s easy to see why hybrid vehicles are more popular than ever. What’s not so obvious are the unique demands placed on the engine and motor oil. Because of a repeated start-stop cycle, plus occasionally running on its electric motor instead of the gasoline engine, hybrids don’t always reach an optimal operating temperature, which can lead to condensation, fuel dilution, and engine corrosion. Formulated with exclusive Trap and Lock Technology to prevent damage from fuel and water, Valvoline Hybrid Vehicle Full Synthetic Motor Oil is engineered for the specific demands of hybrid cars, SUVs and trucks. It suspends water molecules in the oil, provides proper lubrication of all metal surfaces and includes an anti-corrosion shield for enhanced protection against rust. Valvoline Hybrid Vehicle Full Synthetic goes beyond the minimum requirements of a typical synthetic, making it the best motor oil for hybrids like Toyota Prius and Camry, Honda Accord and CRV, Ford Maverick and Escape. Designed with top-quality additives that defend against friction, heat, deposits, sludge and wear, Valvoline Hybrid Vehicle Full Synthetic can help keep your hybrid running at peak performance.
