Bajaj Auto launches BS-VI range of 3-wheelers, completes transition to new emission norm

Bajaj Auto Ltd on Monday said it has launched its BS-VI range of commercial vehicles across brands -- RE, Maxima and Maxima Cargo.

The company has launched 14 BS-VI compliant products across the RE, Maxima and Maxima Cargo brands and thus has transitioned to BS-VI regime for the entire three-wheeler range, Bajaj Auto said in a statement.

With the upgrade, the RE brand now comes with fuel injection (FI) technology in a 236 cc engine across three fuel options -- CNG, LPG and petrol, it added.

In the Maxima brand, the same engine has been re-configured to meet BS-VI emission norms, the company said.

The diesel range across RE and Maxima brands meet the stringent BS-VI norms through systems like exhaust gas recirculation and catalytic converter with the same 470 cc diesel engine.

Commenting on the launch, BAL Joint President, Intracity Business Unit, Samardeep Subandh said: "The introduction of these models completes the transition of our entire product range to BS-VI emission norms ahead of time."
He further said,"We are confident that the new BS6 products in RE and Maxima range will further strengthen our leadership position in the market."
