I have used your Havoline 0W20 in my Fusion Hybrid. I was pleased with its performance in my car. Since this product is very difficult to find at the retail level (and your competitor products are all around), here are my best questions:
1) Some competitive 0W20 oils list a VI in the mid to low 170's. Havoline 0W20 lists at 168. Do you have the a)
formulation capability to offer a 180+ VI 0W20 with no apparent drawbacks that will leapfrog your
competitors? B) Will you be bringing to market any PAO based motor oils for consumer usage - for those of
us who are prepared to pay the price differences?
2) Is there any consideration within Chevron to market NON API motor oils that are geared towards higher
performance and racing engines - such as a Red Line Oil competitor?
