What 0w-20 oils meet VW's 508.00 requirements?

I recently bought a 2018 Passat and am wondering what brand 0w-20 oils meet the so called specs from VW? The manual says 508.00 (not 502 which I put in the title). I cant find any bottle at the store that says anything about it. All I see are meets specs for other brand cars. I saw Castrol Edge Extended Life today, but saw nothing about it meeting anything. I believe the dealer is using Vavoline and know Castrol makes the Edge Professional which isnt found at stores so how the heck do I know what ones meet the requirements?

Look at Total Quartz Ineo. Or Fuchs Titan oil

Total looks good, but can't find that locally. Online it seems I can get the Castrol professional cheaper. Anything stores easily carry?

I thought I'd update this as I contacted a few major oil companies to see if they have any oils that meet the 508.

Castrol only has the Edge Professional
Quaker State says they have none.
Valvoline says the Synpower is
Mobil 1 told me to use their search tool which says my car takes 5w-40. No it doesn't lol

These were from a 3 minute Google search of VW 508 oils. Hope you find one you like.

I actually saw that during a search but the closest dealer is almost an hour away. I need something I can easily get. I think I'm going to go with the Valvoline.

I understand the distance issues.
They can ship to you.
