Largest Segment By Product Type : Engine Oils
- In Brazil, passenger vehicles (PVs) are the largest vehicle type in terms of automotive lubricant consumption. During 2015-2019, the PV lubricant consumption registered a CAGR of 2.02%, primarily owing to the surge in the car population in the country.
- In 2020, PVs accounted for about 44.2% of the total automotive lubricant consumption in the country. Engine oil accounted for the largest share in PV lubricant consumption, with a share of around 76% during the year. During 2020, PV lubricant consumption declined by 9.6%, due to the low usage of the vehicle fleet post the COVID-19 outbreak.
- During 2021-2026, the hydraulic fluids segment is likely to be the fastest-growing lubricant type at a CAGR of 4.62%. This growth is likely to be driven by the rising sales of passenger cars and recovery in average distance traveled in the country.
