«AI 80 has repeatedly been commented that in the framework of modernization of one of the effects of the work will be the production of engine oils standard K-4, K-5. Unfortunately, the gasoline brand AI 80 doesn’t fall under these standards. And its production is already stopped,» Kuanysh Kudaibergenov said.
