Mobil 1 ESP Formula 5W-30 has the following builder approvals:
BMW Longlife 04
Mercedes Benz MB-Approval 229.31/229.51
Volkswagen (Gasoline / Diesel) 504.00 / 507.00
Peugeot Citroen Automobiles E06-N3 / D06-N3
Mobil 1 ESP Formula 5W-30
SAE Grade 5W-30
Viscosity, ASTM D 445
cSt @ 40ºC 72.8
cSt @ 100ºC 12.1
Viscosity Index, ASTM D 2270 164
Sulphated Ash, wt%, ASTM D 874 0.6
HTHS Viscosity, mPa·s @ 150ºC, ASTM D4683 3.58
Pour Point, ºC, ASTM D 97 -45
Flash Point, ºC, ASTM D 92 254
Density @ 15ºC, kg/l, ASTM D 4052 0.850

Those are the UK specs for Mobil 1 ESP 5W-30 which is different than the US Mobil 1 EP 5W-30 according to the US website:
Specifications and Approvals
Mobil 1 Extended Performance meets or exceeds the following industry specifications:
5W-30
ILSAC GF-4
API SM,SL,SJ,SH/CF
ACEA A1,B1,A5,B5
Typical Properties
Mobil 1 Extended Performance 5W-30
Viscosity, ASTM D 445
cSt @ 40º C 61
cSt @ 100º C 11.0
Viscosity Index, ASTM D 2270 169
Sulfated Ash, wt%, ASTM D 874 1.0
HTHS Viscosity, mPa·s @ 150ºC ASTM D 4683 3.1
Pour Point, ºC, ASTM D 97 -48
Flash Point, ºC, ASTM D 92 230
Density @15º C kg/l, ASTM D 4052 0.86

Then the viscosity for the American market is lowest?
For Europe has always, however, these specifications
API SM, SL, SJ, SH / CF
ACEA A1, B1, A5, B5
