The global automotive engine oil market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.39% to reach US$12.866 billion by 2025, from US$9.391 billion in 2019. Engine oil is used to lubricate the internal combustion engine. Its basic function is to cool the engine, prevent the wear and tear, reduce friction on the moving parts and to clean the engine of sludge. Three types of engine oils re commonly used for vehicles; synthetic, synthetic blend and conventional. There are increasing concerns regarding the faster deterioration of engine components due to wear and tear, which leads to a significant decrease in their life due to the usage of inferior quality lubricants and oils. This is encouraging people to use good quality engine oils to provide proper lubrication to limit the wear and tear, which has led to an increased demand for these products and is a factor that will drive the growth of the engine oil market.
Furthermore, the increasing investments and participation of market players in order to improve the quality of engine oils and to launch products that are more advanced is also going to bolster the market growth over the forecast period. For instance, recently on December 5th 2019, Valvoline Inc. a leading supplier of premium lubricants announced that they had developed an engine oil Valvoline Hybrid Vehicle Full Synthetic motor oil which was specifically designed for hybrid vehicles and would be launched in 2020. In September 2019, Pennzoil a subsidiary under Shell, a leading oil and gas company announced the launch of 4 new motor oils; Pennzoil Extended Care, Pennzoil Start Stop Protection, Pennzoil Maximum Power and Pennzoil Hybrid. Pennzoil Start Stop Protection offers enhanced protection to engine during start/stop driving, Pennzoil Hybrid caters to the need of hybrid vehicles. Whereas Pennzoil Extended care increases the life of the component by increasing fuel economy and reducing the wear and tear.
