ACEA C3 is the third-highest grade of engine oil in the European automobile manufacturers' testing and certification standards for automotive lubricants. The ACEA C3 standard is higher than the API standard, and ACEA C3 oil is a top-tier low-SAPS lubricant. Lubricants meeting this standard are primarily used in high-performance gasoline and light-duty diesel engines equipped with diesel particulate filters and three-way catalysts, which feature advanced aftertreatment systems. Additional information: Base oil types are as follows: 1. Solvent-refined base oil: contains higher sulfur content and unsaturated hydrocarbons (mainly aromatics); 2. Hydrotreated base oil: has lower sulfur, nitrogen, and aromatic content; 3. Hydroisomerized base oil: not only has low sulfur and aromatic content but also a very high viscosity index.
