AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil | HEV & PHEV Engine Protection
Advanced Protection for Hybrid Vehicles
The internal combustion engine (ICE) in a hybrid vehicle endures a unique set of challenges. Infrequent engine usage and increased start/stop activity place demands on lubricants not common in traditional ICE vehicles. AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil is a premium upgrade over vehicle-manufacturer-branded motor oils, delivering purpose-built protection for the hybrid-drive cycle to maximize hybrid engine life, efficiency and performance.
Available in three viscosity grades — 0W-8, 0W-16, and 0W-20 — Hybrid Motor Oil covers a wide range of HEV and PHEV applications with JASO GLV-1, API SP / SQ, ILSAC GF-6B / GF-7A, and GM dexos1 Gen 3 specification coverage.

Combats Corrosion and Water Contamination
Hybrid engines operate intermittently, making them especially vulnerable to corrosion. Infrequent use and reduced load on the ICE leads to lower engine temperatures that are insufficient to completely remove condensation inside the engine by evaporation, which can lead to rust, wear and decreased efficiency. AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil is formulated with a boosted dose of inhibitors to help prevent condensation-related corrosion and maintain optimal engine performance. It also contains an elevated level of dispersants to manage water that enters through condensation.
Protects Against Fuel Dilution
Frequent start/stop activity can lead to cooler cylinders and incomplete combustion, increasing the likelihood of unburnt fuel leaking down the cylinder walls into the crankcase and contaminating the motor oil — reducing its ability to provide proper lubrication. AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil is engineered with robust viscosity to combat the negative effects of fuel dilution.
Controls Viscosity
Because they are used intermittently, hybrid engines endure more frequent starts and stops, interrupting the flow of oil. Therefore, oil needs to flow quickly when the engine engages to reach critical components. The issue is more severe when the engine engages to assist the electric motor during high-load and must instantly reach high rpm. AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil is formulated with optimal low-temperature viscosity control to ensure rapid protection of components at startup.
Superior Cold-Temperature Protection — 16% Better Than Mobil 1 Hybrid
Infrequent engine usage and increased start/stop activity can accelerate engine wear in hybrid vehicles. Independent, third-party testing demonstrated that AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil provides up to 16% better low-temperature viscosity than Mobil 1 0W-20 Hybrid Full Synthetic Motor Oil (5476 cP vs 6517 cP in the ASTM D5293 Cold Crank Simulator test required by SAE J300), delivering better protection at startup.
Service Life
0W-16 & 0W-20 — Normal Service
- Up to 15,000 miles or one year
- Whichever comes first
- Personal vehicles not operating under severe service
0W-16 & 0W-20 — Severe Service
Follow the severe-service drain interval prescribed by your vehicle manufacturer in your owner’s manual.
0W-8 — All Service
Follow the original equipment manufacturer’s recommended service interval.
AMSOIL 100% Synthetic Hybrid Motor Oil is compatible with other conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing other oils will shorten the oil’s life expectancy and reduce its performance benefits. AMSOIL does not support extended drain intervals where oils have been mixed. Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended.
