  • - Improved fuel consumption
  • - Improved engine performance
  • - Compatibility with the latest engines
  • - Low-Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI) friendly

THE 0W-20 DEVELOPMENT STORY

Quantum Platinum Plus 0W-20

Quantum Platinum Plus 0W-20 is an oil designed for today’s high-performing and more efficient engines. And as 0W-20 is suitable for the majority of cars you work on its arrival eases the pressure on the variety of oil grades you need to stock.

0W-20 oil spec fills an important gap in the market, providing coverage for a greater percentage of the newer car market (currently 11.4% coverage and growing).

So, as well as being designed to be the ideal choice for the latest GM Vauxhall engines, 0W-20 is also suitable for:

  • BMW
  • Mercedes Benz
  • Jaguar Land Rover
  • Volvo
  • Other vehicles specifying ACEA C5 or API SN Plus RC

The C5 rating of 0W-20 indicates its lower High-Temperature High Shear viscosity (HTHS). This simply means that at high temperatures, C5 oil has lower viscosity than C2 or C3 oil. This creates a thinner film of lubrication, ideal for the smaller tolerances of modern engines.

The lower viscosity of the C5 oil grade creates a 2% increase in fuel economy (up to 3.6% for 0W-20 in comparison tests with older oils).
