The global automotive engine oil market size is projected to reach USD 48.1 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is anticipated to register a CAGR of 3.7% during the forecast period. Increasing demand for synthetic engine oil owing to excellent protection at high temperature and exceptional resistance to thermal break down is the key factor driving the industry growth.
Heavy-duty engine oils are mainly used as a lubricant in internal combustion engines of heavy-duty-vehicles.Heavy Duty Engine Oil provides various benefits, such as reduced wear and tear, accumulation of dust, corrosion, and friction between engine parts. Rise in demand for heavy-duty vehicles owing to burgeoning trade and advancements in logistics has spurred product demand in this segment. Gasoline engines, also referred to as petrol engines, have top piston rings, which possess the ability to expose the motor oil in use to temperatures above 160 degree centigrade.
Majority of the gasoline engine vehicles comprise of light trucks and passenger vehicles.Such engines cannot operate smoothly with higher-viscosity oils as the engine type is not equipped to function trouble-free with high heat generation. The industry is highly characterized by the presence of major industry participants continuously carrying out R&D on additives for engine oil to improve the performance and reduce wear and tear of engine parts. Companies, such as Motul and Amsoil, strategically ventured into joint business operations with oil & gas giants to ensure long-term raw material procurement ease.
