GC NEXTGEN ULTRA 10W-40

GC NEXTGEN ULTRA SAE 10W-40 API SQ is a forward-looking fully synthetic engine oil engineered to satisfy the demands of hybrid powertrains and high-efficiency ICE engines operating in harsh desert climates. Features extreme shear stability, ultra-low volatility, and advanced catalyst protection.

Application Category Recommended Service Life / Drain Interval
Hybrid Powertrains & Next-Gen Vehicles 12,000 km – 15,000 km (Optimized for frequent stop-start KSA city traffic)
High-Efficiency Eco Fleets 350 – 400 Operating Hours (Uncompromised protection across desert heat)

Note: Actual drain intervals may vary depending on vehicle condition, fuel sulfur levels, severe dust exposure, and OEM engine recommendations.

  • Hybrid Powertrain Optimization: Rapid fluid flow engineered for immediate wear protection during frequent engine restarts.
  • Ultra-Low Volatility: Minimizes oil evaporative loss under extreme Saudi summer temperatures.
  • GPF & Catalyst Safety: Protects Gasoline Particulate Filters and catalytic converters from premature poisoning.
  • Shear Stability: Maintains stay-in-grade viscosity throughout severe high-load operation.
