Maruti Suzuki India today launched India`s first flex-fuel car. A flex-fuel car gives the flexibility to customers to run on any blend of ethanol and petrol from E20 to E100. Maruti Suzuki is introducing flex-fuel technology in the Wagon R, a favourite brand that has long pioneered alternate fuel vehicles in India, including CNG and LPG. With the launch of India`s first flex-fuel car, Maruti Suzuki brings innovation aligned with national energy security and sustainability goals. In addition to a significant reduction in oil imports, flex-fuel vehicles can also help to boost farmer income. Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India, said, �At Maruti Suzuki, we are committed to offer cars with multiple technologies and fuels. The Company is introducing BEVs, Hybrids, CNG/CBG and ethanol flex-fuel vehicles to meet India`s twin goals of reducing oil import and carbon emissions. The ecosystem for ethanol as a fuel in India is in its early stages, and as a market leader, we think it is our responsibility to contribute to make `India Go Flex`. Once it reaches mainstream adoption, Flex-Fuel Vehicles have the potential to cut oil imports, carbon emissions, and local air pollution while enhancing domestic value addition and farmer incomes.�
