- The primary role of engine oils is to ensure that engines are adequately lubricated to run smoothly and have a longer lifespan. In 2020, engine oils accounted for a 74.29% volume share of the overall automotive lubricant share. Engine oil consumption increased at a CAGR of 2.22% during 2015-2019 due to the rising population of used cars and commercial trucks.
- In 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak resulted in a huge decline in the usage of the existing vehicle fleet of the country. Hence, engine oil consumption in the country decreased by around 12.86% compared to 2019.
- During 2021-2026, engine oil consumption is expected to increase at a CAGR of 2.22%. The smaller impact of engine downsizing in future models and the increase in the number of vehicles present on the road in Bulgaria are the primary reasons behind such optimistic growth projections.
