Many modern cars have turned to W20. Mine is using W20 as well. 

Next time gonna check with AD if they are also using same viscosity EO.

N/A Engines,like Mazda & Toyota Akinson Cycle Engine used 0W20,(Toyota Owner Maunal said 0W16 Oil),Turbocharged Cars better use a slightly thicker Oil.

IMHO.
Which 0w-20 did you use?  I know BM doesn't use 0w-20.

Tried OWS EO once and never believe in their line of products.

IL6 turned into IL4 and was stunned by how bad the effect was.

 

 

I think OWS Only known in Singapore. Got any OWS products sold in Germany?
.  🤣

Yes, the car use but the AD don't have so never use. 🤣

Oh,yours is AD Camry Hybrid,yes,i heard AD Free Servicing used 5W30,but they have 0W20 Option,you need to pay for it...Camry Hybrid if use 5W30 won't perform at it's best,Owner's Manual state clearly,it even need 0W16 GF-6B Oil,but that Oil even more difficult to get here.

I do comparison.  
Find the specs and VOA.  Look at various things like HTHS, Viscosity at 40/100, TBN, etc. 
My challenge is cold startup.  My Hybrid default engine not on and so hard to warm up. 🤣

Alamak,  mine is Corolla Cross Hybrid.    I checked many times already,  no 0w20 option. 
They got some new Motul EO but I cannot recall are they 0w.
I need 0w. 🤣

Hybrid...no need to warm up...just move off...no worries..Singapore is not that Cold,the Toyota Hybrid System is tested in Sub Zero Temperature.

You can feel the difference once you change to OW20 Oil.

What do mean by “hard to warm up”?
For Jap car, HTHS no need higher than 2.6 for 0w-20
