Tata Motors has received the BS6 compliance certificate for its 3.8L NA SGI CNG engine from ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India).

While the electric three-wheelers (Li-Ion battery) are at earlier stages of adoption in India, with appropriate policy support, infrastructure creation and incentivisation, EVs will form an important part of the industry, explains Prashant R Ahir, DGM (Business Planning & C.I), Intracity Business Unit, Bajaj Auto Limited.

Following the certification, Tata Motors becomes the first OEM in India to achieve BS6 certification for a naturally aspirated CNG engine for commercial vehicles.

Indian Auto Company (IAC) - a DIPP registered start-up offering automotive solutions in tracking and telematics, smart infotainment, rear seat infotainment and driver fatigue systems using IoT-enabled hardware and platform - has introduced IAC 140 and IAC 140 CAN vehicle location tracking devices, which are both certified as per AIS 140 standard by ARAI and ICAT respectively.

These vehicle tracking devices conforming to the AIS 140 standards, are being marketed through IAC’s network of more than 22 states and 70 cities.

Air quality in many cities continues to deteriorate. Rolling out electric vehicles (EVs) will take several decades of work and infrastructural development

Manufacturing has changed its focus and approaches from pure cost to quality, productivity, energy efficiency and delivery performance in the last two decades.

Innoline combines the efficiency and performance of the iEGR technology with the simplicity of the renowned ‘Sada’ or 'Inline' pump. Ashok Leyland is the only OEM in the world to have an inline pump for BS4 or Euro 4 engines that is also certified by the ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India). This technology can be upgraded and used for BS6 engines as well.
