Motul 8100 ECO-LITE is a low-viscosity, fuel-economy-oriented synthetic oil built for modern gasoline engines with multi-valve and turbocharged designs, primarily across Japanese, Korean, and American OEM platforms including Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, and GM. The 0W-20 grade is engineered to reduce internal friction, and Motul’s own page presents the codes below as performance specifications the oil is designed to satisfy rather than as a set of formally licensed manufacturer approvals.

OEM specifications and approvals
Meets / recommended for
These specifications are listed by the manufacturer as met or recommended, which is a lighter claim than a formal, numbered approval.
Is this oil compatible with your car?
Viscosity alone does not determine whether an oil is right for your engine. Compatibility depends on the exact OEM approval your manufacturer requires, your engine's build, the model year, and the market the car was sold in — the same nominal viscosity can carry different approvals in different regions. Check your owner's manual or use OilFinderPro below to confirm the requirement for your specific vehicle before buying.
Oils sharing one or more specifications
Each row shows the exact specification two products share and whether it is a formally licensed approval or a lighter "meets requirements" claim on each side — those are not equivalent, and sharing a specification does not by itself make two oils interchangeable in your vehicle.
