Engine oil in passenger cars is used to reduce friction and wear and tear of the connecting rods and moving engine crankshaft, bearings, and pistons. Engine oil serves as an effective coolant as it prevents the formation of rust and corrosion. Synthetic engine oils are now being widely accepted as the standard engine oil by OEMs due to better compatibility with the environment as well as technical benefits over conventional mineral oil engine oils. Synthetic lubricants lead to high performance of the engine as well as safeguards and maintains the engine well. A vehicle using synthetic engine oil requires less maintenance and has greater operating efficiency.
