No mention in the article as to whether or not this is GTL base oil which they normally like to say. It just says fully synthetic.

Looks like nothing more than a marketing gimmick - it's an ACEA C2 oil. I have a Merc C300 diesel hybrid with the OM651 engine and the oil requirements are exactly the same as the non hybrid version - 229.51. Why would they be any different?
