Tata Motors synthetic engine oil

Tata Motors launched the 5W30 synthetic engine oil developed to boost the performance of the newgeneration BSVI diesel engines. The new 5W30 synthetic engine oil is claimed to have undergone extensive testing under varied and stringent conditions for over three years. Claimed to have been driven for more than 10 lakh kilometres, clocking more than 35,000 hours at the powertrain testing facilities, it uses a rich combination of high-performance polymer with a state-of-the-art additive technology blended in group III base oil. On this occasion, Rajendra Petkar, President and Chief Technology Officer at Tata Motors said, “Effective and efficient engine oil is one of the most convenient and cost-effective ways of reducing a vehicle’s carbon emissions.” The cumulative impact of such simple measures judiciously taken across all commercial vehicles plying on roads will result in an exponential improvement in carbon footprint reduction. Our team at the Engineering Research Centre (ERC) has been co-engineering and developing lubricant formulations in-house, while closely working with strategic partners from the field of additive manufacturing.
