Cei mai mari producători auto din lume încearcă să evite o criză a uleiului de motor. Conflictul din Orientul Mijlociu a perturbat aprovizionarea

Automakers like Volkswagen, Stellantis, and Toyota are seeking alternative motor oils and lubricants due to a severe supply shortage caused by Middle Eastern conflicts. After depleting high-quality base oil stocks, they are exploring new suppliers, but the market remains vulnerable. Prices for Group III base oils have surged, and production disruptions have been significant. Companies are working to ensure that new formulations meet industry standards while minimizing service impacts. Analysts warn that the situation could worsen again.
