VHVI Synthetic base oils. They are not the only oilco doing this. I would like to see the pricing philosophy using these BO's. Yubase/SK Corp in Korea supply a lot of this material. Great for places like Northern China.

Video is misleading. A Fuchs 5W30 synthetic oil was compared with a conventional (non-synthetic) 5W-30 oil at -27 degs. Synths have great advantage over conv (dino) oils at low temps.
