New M1 15k hybrid oil?

[JavierH19]

Went to Walmart to pick up some groceries on the way back. Just had to swing by the oil shelf to see if I could get a peep show with the new QS ultimate. Saw that and this and haven't seen anyone make a post about it.

What do y'all reckon. I'm surprised it isn't 0w-16 since that's what most hybrids on the road use. But at just 2 bucks less who'd buy this over the 0w-20EP anyway. I would've imagined Mobil making a 0w-16 EP before this.

Only 1 grade?

Maybe the exact same product as 0w-20EP?

Does it really matter; people rave about 0w-20EP and drain it out after 7K

We need something for Autozone to clearance in December 2023.

They should be producing 0W-16 and 0W-8. Mobil is behind the times.

Way late to the game..

Maybe the exact same product as 0w-20EP? ...

Or the same as 0W-20 AFE?

My Hybrid actually calls for 5w20...now, if it was one year newer, it'd be 0w20...
and the PHEV my Brother used to own, actually called for 5w30....

Maybe it's just a standard 10k oil but they figure since a hybrid has the engine off 1/2 the time it's good for 15k miles?

I just saw this as well, right next to the 0W-20 AFE and at the same price. The only obvious difference from the front of the two labels was a 15,000 mile claim on the hybrid vs 10,000 miles on the AFE. I was actually thinking of trying it on the C-Max Energi, given the it's only used 26 gallons of gas to cover 3000 miles. OTOH - 0W-20 EP is only three bucks more for the five quart jug.

Another oil for me to try, I love new oil flavor.
