For every engine the right oil
Motor oils have to be all-rounders: lubricating, cooling, cleaning, protecting from corrosion and sealing – all at the same time, no matter at which temperature. The fulfillment of all these tasks with only one product requires a lot of know-how combined with an innovative approach. „With the introduction of our new OMV BIXXOL motor oils we have perfectly aligned our technical expertise as innovation leaders to the requirements of modern motor engineering“, says Ulrich Ruckenbauer, OMV Sales Manager for automotive lubricants. “We are very glad that we are able to produce these top-quality motor oils in Austria”, he adds.

The Top Performer
The new OMV BIXXOL special UP (Ultimate Performance) is the ultimate top quality product of OMV’s high capacity motor oil assortment. This synthetic smooth running oil with ash reduced formula has been tested under extreme conditions to guarantee optimal performance in any situation. The latest additive technology offers a 50 percent higher wear protection than regular motor oils. Special cleaning additives provide enhanced cleanliness of the motor resulting in efficient motor function. The synthetic formula can bring a 1.5 percent saving on fuel consumption compared to conventional SAE15W-40 motor oils. The modified additive system guarantees increased protection of the diesel particle filter.

The Short Distance Specialist
Short distances are your engine’s natural enemy. With OMV BIXXOL special EC (Energy Conserving), OMV created a synthetic oil that lubricates the motor particularly fast after starting the engine. The result: Excellent performance on engine start-up, even with extremely low temperatures. In addition, high performance cleaning additives decrease deposits and increase the engine’s life. Maximum power output guarantees low fuel consumption and the synthetic formula ensures a saving on fuel up to 2,5 percent, compared to conventional SAE15W-40 motor oils.

The Fuel Saving and Hybrid Specialist
The new OMV BIXXOL special FE (Fuel Efficiency) is in the top product range of OMV BIXXOL a complete new development on the basis of a SAE 0W-20 formula. The goal of this development was to create a motor oil for motors that were properly designed for the lowest possible consumption in order to prevent losses of this advantage due to wrong oil. OMV BIXXOL special FE is a synthetic smooth running oil that insures maximum fuel savings. The new SAE 0W-20 Formula aims at the highest possible power output of the motor and the optimal quality of the motor oil during the entire engine life.

The Universalist
The new OMV BIXXOL premium NT (New Technology) is a strongly improved product out of a premium assortment. The synthetic formula adapted to the latest motor trend allows the usual perfect quality through the entire period of use. In the range of OMV BIXXOL products the perfect generalist offers an up to 50 percent higher wear protection than regular motor oils, improved engine cleanliness and efficient motor operation through special cleaning additives. The synthetic formula guarantees optimal oil quality throughout the entire period of use. As expected from an universalist, this OMV BIXXOL motor oil meets the criteria of each and every car brand.
