Description

77 Lubricants ATF EV is a fully synthetic low-viscosity fluid from the ATF line for the single- and multi-speed transmissions and reduction gears of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles. It suits both dry and wet units, where the motor and gears share one oil.

It holds no official approvals; the maker states that it meets the requirements of Tesla ATF-9, EDF2 and KAF-1, MB 235.73 and MB 236.24, GM Dexron VI, Ford WSS-M2C949-A, VW G 052 527 and G 060 190, BMW 83 22 2 295 532, Toyota WS, Honda ATF DW-1, Nissan Matic S and others.

Typical figures: 4.9 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 166, pour point -60 °C, flash point 184 °C.

Application

Single- and multi-speed transmissions and reduction gears of electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, including units where the electric motor and gears share one oil.

Worth knowing

In the catalogue all the codes of this fluid are gathered into a single “Meets the requirements” line, while the 77 Lubricants data sheet splits them into two groups. Named without extra conditions are specifications and fluid numbers for electric drives, such as Tesla ATF-9, EDF2 and KAF-1, VW G 060 190, GM 955999825, MB 236.24 and BMW 83 22 2 295 532. GM Dexron VI, Toyota WS, Honda ATF DW-1, Nissan Matic S, MB 235.73 and Renault NFP are listed separately with the note “when used on BEV and PHEV applications”: these names apply only to components of battery-electric cars and plug-in hybrids.

A conventional torque-converter automatic that calls for Dexron VI is not one of those applications; in the ATF line the same name without that condition is carried by, for instance, ATF DX VI. No line of the EV data sheet is a Tesla, Mercedes-Benz or GM approval: it is the wording of the fluid’s own maker, and the article on verifying an oil approval explains how “suitable for” differs from an approval.
