Cei mai mari producători auto din lume, precum Volkswagen, Stellantis și Toyota, încearcă să evite o criză a uleiului de motor

Automakers like Volkswagen, Stellantis, and Toyota are seeking alternative motor oils due to supply shortages caused by Middle Eastern conflicts. After depleting high-quality base oil stocks, they are exploring new lubricant sources, though availability remains limited. Prices for Group III base oils have surged, and production disruptions have occurred, notably after attacks on a key Shell facility in Qatar. While companies are adapting, analysts warn that the situation could worsen again.
