What’s the difference between conventional, synthetic blend, and full synthetic for a 2018 Ford C-Max-Hybrid?

Full synthetic offers the best oxidation stability, cold-start flow, and deposit control for hybrid engines compared to conventional or blends.

Hybrids like the 2018 Ford C-Max-Hybrid see frequent engine start-stop cycles and cold starts that benefit from the cleaner, more stable properties of full synthetic oil. Always match Ford’s required viscosity and specification. If you’re unsure, we’ll verify the correct oil on your repair order and label the service sticker for your records.

  • Better high-temperature stability reduces varnish and sludge
  • Improved low-temperature pumpability for New England winters
  • Meets or exceeds Ford’s performance specification
