What's the difference between conventional, synthetic blend, and full synthetic for a 2017 Lexus Gs-450h?
Full synthetic offers superior cold-start flow, oxidation resistance, and deposit control versus conventional or blends—ideal for Lexus 0W-20 specs.
The hybrid V6 benefits from quick lubrication and thermal stability, especially in cold Massachusetts winters and stop‑and‑go traffic. That’s why Lexus specifies 0W‑20 full synthetic for this model. Blends improve over conventional, but don’t match full synthetic performance for this application.
