US Automotive Engine Oil Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the US Automotive Engine Oils Market according to our research experts:
Largest Segment By Vehicle Type : Passenger Vehicles
- During 2015-2020, the engine oil consumption in the country witnessed a fluctuating trend and recorded a negative CAGR of 3.95%.
- Most of the engine oils used in the United States meet the latest standards set by the International Lubricant Specification Advisory Committee (ILSAC) and the American Petroleum Institute (API). Although these synthetic grades have higher profit margins per gallon, they also support higher drain intervals. Hence, higher penetration of synthetic engine oils significantly restrained the growth of this product type, in terms of volume, during 2015-2020.
- Post the COVID-19 outbreak, the engine oil change requirements of vehicles further declined. The usage of the existing automotive fleet is gradually boosting the engine oil volume consumption, which is likely to recover at a CAGR of 2.99% during the forecast period.
