Description

Motul DHT E-ATF is a fully synthetic, low-viscosity fluid for dedicated hybrid transmissions (DHT) and other electrified automatic gearboxes. According to the maker, it has increased electrical resistance to insulate the electric motor built into the transmission.

The data sheet lists no official approvals. Without official approval the fluid meets the requirements of Toyota WS, Hyundai/Kia SP-IV, Nissan Matic S, Aisin Warner AW-1, Aisin Warner JWS 3324, JATCO 1A-LV and JATCO M315.

Typical figures: kinematic viscosity 6.2 mm²/s at 100 °C, viscosity index 157, flash point 224 °C. Available in 1 litre.

The fluid is intended only for the automatic transmissions of hybrid cars.

Application

Dedicated hybrid transmissions (DHT) and other electrified automatic gearboxes in hybrid cars from Toyota and Lexus, Hyundai-Kia, Nissan, Honda, GM, Ford, BMW, Porsche, Volvo, VW and other makes.

Worth knowing

Toyota WS, Hyundai/Kia SP-IV, Nissan Matic S, Aisin Warner AW-1 and Aisin Warner JWS 3324 are also on the list of the conventional Motul TRANS ATF VI, so the two fluids cannot be told apart by these names. The DHT E-ATF data sheet spells out its hybrid purpose away from the code list: according to Motul, the fluid is compatible with the polymer and resin coatings used in electric motors and connectors, and its formulation is designed to protect the electric motor itself and its electronic components against corrosion.

The data sheet allows mixing only with similar fluids of the DHT e-ATF type, not with any ATF whose list carries the same names. Who is actually behind “meets the requirements” next to names such as Toyota WS, and whose list to search for a genuine approval, is explained in the article on the words “approved” and “meets” on a can.
