Synthetic vs. Conventional Oil
Now that you know the Toyota Camry oil type, you may be curious about the difference between synthetic and conventional oil. Conventional and synthetic oils differ primarily in their composition and performance characteristics. Learn more below:
- Conventional oil is derived directly from crude oil and contains a mix of hydrocarbons, additives, and contaminants. It tends to be more affordable but requires more frequent changes due to its lower resistance to breakdown under heat and stress.
- Synthetic oil is chemically engineered to have uniform molecules with fewer impurities, offering better viscosity stability across a wider range of temperatures. This results in enhanced lubrication properties, reduced friction, and improved engine cleanliness, ultimately allowing for longer intervals between oil changes despite its higher initial cost. Synthetic oils are particularly beneficial in extreme temperatures and high-performance engines, where their superior protection and efficiency make them the preferred choice for many drivers.
