In the quest to provide consumers with technologically advanced lubricants, MITASU OIL CORPORATION has resorted to the latest innovation of one of the leading chemical companies in Japan - Mitsui Chemicals.

The aspiration of the world’s car manufacturers to enhance the level of driving comfort and fuel economy has long been one of the driving factors in the development of hydraulic automatic transmissions. One of the effects of advancement in this area is the tendency to increase the number of gears in the "classic" automatic transmission. While in the late 90s, a 4- or 5-gear automatic transmission was considered the norm, nowadays the norm for a passenger vehicle is to have an 8-, 9- or even 10-gear automatic transmission.

Such a dramatic evolution in the automatic transmission design and the extended service interval called for much tighter requirements for working fluids. For ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) in particular, the thermal stability and resistance to oxidation requirements have significantly increased.
