TVS Motor Company had a semi-synthetic oil called the TRU4 Premium 4T 10W 30 that was launched back in 2010. Today, the company took a step forward and announced the launch of the fully synthetic TVS TRU4 Synthetic 10W 30 motor oil. This new product meets standards set by the Japanese Automotive Standards Organisation – JASO MA2 and American Petroleum Institute – API.

TVS says that the new engine oil ensures smooth clutch operation, low temperature start ability and longer service life. “Synthetic oil flows better in cold weather, making engine starts easier, and offering better protection. In addition, synthetic oil resists viscosity changes at extremely high temperatures unlike conventional oil, which can break down or evaporate at such temperatures, causing damage to the engine. Synthetic oil is slicker than conventional oil and therefore, enables smoother, cooler engine operation resulting in better power and better fuel economy” said Mr. K Venkateswarlu, Vice President – Parts Business, TVS Motor Company.

According to TVS, TRU4 Synthetic Oil uses an advanced formulation technology for extreme thermal conditions to establish superior thermal stability both at high and low temperatures. This technology also brings about preferential friction reduction, superior engine cleanliness and smoother clutch performance, leading to better ride comfort. It will be sold in 900ml and 1-litre bottles, and TVS will sell it at Rs 525 per litre.
