Well I'm not so sure its New Technology. Its kinda has that Dairy whiff to me I'd like to see some engine testing and the number of estimatedWhat is this technology?

Mobil 1™ ESP x2 0W-20 is an SHC Synthese Technology engine oil specifically designed to provide outstanding engine cleanliness, wear protection, strong durability and advanced fuel economy* to keep your engine running like new.
Besides a dexosD license and Porsche C20, Mercedes-Benz 229.71 and VW 508 00 approvals, what proof are you looking for?
In Germany (and apparently Belgium) SHC (Synthetic Hydrocarbon) is called out because in Germany, unless the oil is like 70%+ PAO, it can't be called synthetic. So, oils are primarily Group III in the base oil blend, or have less than 70% PAO, are branded as SHC.What is this technology?

How many hours of life its going to give my engine!
Im considering it for my hemi as a winter oil next year
Yes exactly, as a european this is what i look for when buying oil. Currently the only manufacturer i know that sells real pao syntetic based oil is ravenol. They are useally about twice the price of comparable shell, mobil etc...
Yes, see my signature, I'm a fan of Ravenol, lol.
Well, surprise surprise. I had 5k on this oil when I changed it. The viscosity at 100 degrees C was over 11! But all the other numbers looked good, from wear to additives. No 0w20 has done that in this engine so I can't help but wonder what the viscosity was when it was new. I've got another 5 quarts in it now but will cut this run short at 3k. I'm going to go back to EP 0w20. I just don't like how thick this was. The 3.6 is really easy on oil, so I can't imagine it thickened up from its rated viscosity to over 11.
My Driver in the EU put 700k on his car and traded - original engine - M1 0W40 New Life

I hope not. There is absolutely no good reason for that with the supposed quality of this oil and a Pentastar. It had an easy life. It had to be an error. I am going to email Blackstone to see if they can run the viscosity test again. It's just waaaay out of the norm. I've got 67k on it now and have done a UOA at every change. I've mostly run Mobil 1 EP, but have run AFE, and Shell RGT. None of them ever spiked like that. All the other numbers are comparable to the previously run oils, too. Just odd.Looks like oxidative thickening.

Developments in the automotive industry today are moving in the direction of more fuel-efficient engines. Consequently, this development also has an impact on engine oils as the development here is clearly leaning towards low viscosity 0W-30 and 0W-20 engi
It is regular, mineral-based Group III. This term has been used since October 2010, when the API SM–SN transition occurred. Mobil 1 abandoned use of Group IV (PAO) with their API SN oils and started using Group III. Since Germany doesn't allow calling Group III oils synthetic, Mobil 1 coined the term SHC (synthetic hydrocarbon) for their oils sold in Germany starting with API SN, which simply means regular Group III oil.What is this technology?
