To provide a lubricant composition that has sufficiently low kinetic viscosity at 40°C, kinetic viscosity at 100°C, and HTHS viscosity at 100°C while maintaining HTHS viscosity at 150°C, sufficiently suppresses increase of a friction coefficient in a boundary lubrication region, and is excellent in fuel consumption saving.
The lubricant composition includes a lubricant base oil having kinetic viscosity at 100°C of 1-20 mm2/s, (A) a viscosity index improver having a ratio M1/M2 of 0.20 or more (wherein M1 is the total area of peaks between 36-38 ppm chemical shift relative to the total area of all peaks; and M2 is the total area of peaks between 64-66 ppm chemical shift relative to the total area of all peaks) in a spectrum obtained by 13C-NMR, (B) a friction modifier, and (C) an overbased metal salt obtained by performing overbasing of an oil-soluble metal salt with an alkaline earth metal borate.
