Mobil recently (like in last 2 years) reformulated to "SuperSyn", replacing the TriSyn.
I think the only major difference between the "Higher-Mileage" and the regular is in viscosity. Sticks in my mind that the 5W-30 is the regular, and the 10W-30 the "Higher Mileage". And the 5W-40 is the "SUV"
Doubtful that you would be overwhelmed by any difference in performance in your car.
