HONDA ULTRA HEVF-Type 1 Hybrid Electric Vehicle Transmission Fluid
HONDA ULTRA HEVF-Type 1 is a dedicated transmission fluid developed for Honda hybrid vehicle drivetrains, particularly e-CVT and e:HEV systems. Current Honda owner manuals specify ULTRA HEVF-Type 1 as the required transmission fluid for several hybrid models. The fluid is manufactured by Idemitsu Kosan and is based mainly on hydrogenated paraffinic hydrocarbons, with synthetic hydrocarbons and selected lubricant additives. According to the 2024 SDS, the total mineral-oil content is approximately 80% to 90%. ULTRA HEVF-Type 1 has a kinematic viscosity of approximately 23.15 mm²/s at 40°C, density of about 0.8259 g/cm³ at 15°C, flash point of approximately 202°C and pour point below -60°C, providing a balance of low-temperature fluidity and thermal stability.
Product Details
Product Features
Hybrid-System-Specific Formulation: Developed specifically for Honda HEV and e:HEV transmission systems requiring lubrication of both electric-drive and mechanical components.
Good Lubrication Protection: Helps protect gears, bearings and transmission components against friction and wear during operation.
Good Low-Temperature Fluidity: A pour point below -60°C supports fluid circulation and lubrication during cold starts.
Good Thermal Stability: A flash point of approximately 202°C supports stable lubrication under changing transmission operating temperatures.
Stable Transmission Performance: Designed to support smooth and reliable operation of Honda e-CVT and hybrid electric drivetrain systems.
Product Applications
Honda e:HEV Vehicles: Suitable for Honda hybrid vehicles specifically requiring ULTRA HEVF-Type 1.
e-CVT Transmission Systems: Used in Honda electronically controlled hybrid transmission units to lubricate gears, bearings and related components.
Electric Drive Units: Suitable for drivetrain systems combining electric motors with mechanical transmission components.
Hybrid Transmission Maintenance: Intended for transmission-fluid replacement and maintenance according to the relevant Honda service specifications.
Honda-Specified Drivetrains: Recommended only for vehicles that specifically specify ULTRA HEVF-Type 1 and should not be substituted solely on the basis of viscosity for conventional ATF or CVT fluids.
