About passenger car motor oil
PCMO refers to motor oils for gasoline and diesel engines used in passenger vehicles. It reduces friction and wear and tear of the moving engine's crankshaft, connecting rods, bearings, and pistons. It also serves as an effective coolant. It inhibits the formation of deposits and prevents rust and corrosion.
The market figures in the report include different viscosity grades of oil components, namely mono-grade and multi-grade.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global passenger car motor oil market to grow at a CAGR of 2.92% over the period 2014-2019.
