The electric vehicle changes the engineering question. It doesn't remove it.
A battery-electric vehicle has no internal combustion engine, so it doesn't need conventional engine oil. It does, however, create different demands around transmissions, thermal management and mechanical components.
Castrol's global Castrol ON range has been developed around EV transmission fluids, thermal fluids and greases.
That is what makes World EV Day interesting for us. The vehicles are changing, and lubricant technology is changing with them.
