Fuel-saving tech may help carmakers meet tougher CAFE norms

Wait 5 sec.

India's proposed CAFE-III norms offer compliance credits for fuel-saving vehicle technologies. Automakers can earn credits for features like start-stop systems and regenerative braking. These credits will help meet stricter fuel efficiency targets without solely relying on electric vehicles. The new framework encourages wider adoption of these technologies in mass-market cars. Incentives are also proposed for flex-fuel vehicles using renewable fuels.
