Maruti Suzuki India (MSIL) has said it would continue to work on reducing vehicle emissions.
Outlining its commitment to environment friendly products, Kenichi Ayukawa, managing director and CEO, said, “Maruti Suzuki has always been known for class leading fuel efficiency. In the last few years, the company has worked systematically towards reducing vehicle emissions and achieved new benchmarks. The recent new models, product upgrades and even minor changes have been substantially more fuel efficient than the outgoing ones. With auto gear shift technology the company is able to offer the convenience of an automatic without the need to emit more.”

He added: “Going forward, we will continue our focus on investing in new technologies and strengthen our capability to bring down emissions per vehicle by enhancing fuel efficiency of our cars.”
Parent Suzuki Motor showed new engine technology at the Geneva show last March including a new generation light weight platform, a new downsized direct injection turbo petrol engine called Boosterjet and the SHVS mild hybrid system. MSIL said such technology could prove relevant for India and the company may explore these options.
