Rationale

The new standard is needed to better reflect the more severe field conditions experienced by hybrid vehicle engine oils. The test will be used to determine if the engine oils are able to successfully emulsify the water and fuel in order to prevent issues caused by free water and fuel in the engine. The users will be independent test laboratories, additive companies, lubricant companies, and others involved in the development and use of engine oils for hybrid vehicles.
