 "Switch over to BS-VI to boost growth opportunities for mild hybrid vehicles")
The Indian automotive industry’s shift towards Bharat Stage (BS) VI compliance will have far-reaching implications for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), especially in the diesel engine segment, say experts.
The regulations governing diesel engines are expected to become tighter, and the cost of compliance will be up to $1,200 for diesel cars, according to Frost & Sullivan report.
OEMs that offer a combination of solutions with substantial cost benefits will be the most successful. The mild hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV), with its exceptional cost advantage, could be that solution. By helping diesel engines balance cost efficiency and BS-VI compliance, this powertrain
