According to the recent survey done by WHO, India has one of the most number of polluted cities amongst the top hundred cities in the world. To improve the situation, the Government of India has declared to implement more stringent emission norms with BS6. Effective from April 2020, this is intended to help reduce vehicular pollution.

Being the largest car manufacturer in India, Maruti Suzuki has been proactive about upgrading its petrol engines to meet these BS6 emission norms. As a result, Maruti Suzuki has the largest line-up of BS6 cars available. You can check the complete line-up here.
