Best oil for a hybrid?

[Revrick]

Just purchased a 2021 Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring, which is a hybrid. Any recommendations on oil? I generally go with Mobil 1 0-20 for most all of my recent cars. However, now I have a fully-electric Mustang and the Corsair.

A 60-grade would be fine, as long as the 20W winter rating is appropriate for the expected starting temperature. Would you need a 60-grade? No, but it wouldn't damage the engine either. And why wouldn't you want a synthetic oil? Synthetic oils have superior resistance to oxidation and sludge formation, for one thing.

And as for why there are certain recommendations in the owner's manual, that is influenced by outside requirements other than what the engineers may recommend. But you are at least correct in noting they are a recommendation.

As for the rest, now you are just being ridiculous. You're not helping your cred here.

"Influenced by outside requirements", that's just in your head. Now you are just replying for the sake of replying, that's your cred. You win, I lose.

You really do not understand anything in regards to oil recommendations in an owner's manual. Perhaps learn up on those as well as the rest.
