What type of engine oil is suitable for the new Alto?
1 Answers
The most suitable engine oil for the new Alto is 0W20, which is also the specification used by the new Alto. The differences between 5W30 and 0W20 engine oils are mainly reflected in two aspects: 1. Low-temperature fluidity. 2. High-temperature protection performance. Although 5W30 has better high-temperature protection performance and stronger sealing, its higher viscosity increases engine operating resistance and fuel consumption. Therefore, overall, the new Alto is more suitable for 0W20 engine oil with better low-temperature fluidity. Naturally aspirated engines have relatively general requirements for oil quality, and mineral oil or semi-synthetic oil can be used. If the budget allows, fully synthetic oil can be chosen. Compared to naturally aspirated engines, turbocharged engines have a more compact structure and more complex working conditions, requiring higher oil quality and better fluidity, preferably fully synthetic oil.
