A key factor driving the growth of the market is the rising vehicle population leading to high consumption of PCMO. The increasing number of vehicles used globally is driving the global passenger car motor oil market. This rapid increase in the number of vehicles is owing to the immense rise in new vehicle sales. In countries such as India and China, where the penetration of passenger cars is low, sales of new passenger cars were substantial owing to the high demand for passenger cars from the middle-class income group. The demand for LCVs is driven by the growth of the e-commerce and construction industries. In the e-commerce industry, vendors are focusing on ways of delivering their products within a minimum amount of time to the consumers, which gives rise to high demand for efficient commercial vehicles.

Global passenger car motor oil market: Increasing adoption of synthetic motor oil

Engine oils are either conventional, semi-synthetic, or fully synthetic. Synthetic engine oil is gaining popularity across the globe. Automakers offer and recommend fully synthetic engine oils for modern vehicles, especially mid-segment and premium vehicles. The different types of synthetic engine oil are poly-a-olefin (PAO), esters, polyalkylene glycol, and group III (hydrocracking).

“PAO is the most popular in the industry owing to its physical and chemical properties leading to low volatility and better oxidative as well as thermal stability with respect to other engine oils. Furthermore, PAO synthetic engine oils are less expensive than their synthetic counterparts,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on automotive components.
