1. A lubricating oil composition comprising:
(a) from about 6 wt. % to about 15 wt. %, based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition, of one or more base oils (A) comprising one or more polyalphaolefin (PAO) base oils having a kinematic viscosity at 10° C. of from about 8.0 cSt to about 12 cSt;
(b) from about 65 wt. % to about 85 wt. %, based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition, of one or more base oils (B) having a kinematic viscosity at 100° C. of from about 3.0 cSt to about 5.5 cSt; and
(c) from about 0.1 wt. % to about 10 wt. %, based on the total weight of the lubricating oil composition, of a succinimide dispersant;
wherein base oil (A) is derived at least in part from a C12 olefin and further wherein base oil A has a weight average molecular weight of from about 300 g/mol to about 1000 g/mol.
