According to a news release, Castrol EDGE Extended Performance is the only engine oil to meet all three key industry specifications: API, GM dexos Gen3 and ACEA C2/C5.

Castrol is simultaneously relaunching its three flagship synthetic 'stronger for longer' motor oil brands that now include new oil change intervals:

  • Castrol GTX Full Synthetic - 10,000-mile oil drainage interval

  • Castrol EDGE - 20,000-mile oil drainage interval

  • Castrol EDGE Extended Performance -with a 25,000-mile oil drainage interval
