The discussion of electric vehicles has gained a lot of momentum now. Along with this, the discussion of Flex Fuel has also gained momentum. A few days ago, Toyota launched its Flex Fuel car in India as a pilot project. Which was inaugurated by Union Minister Nitin Gadkari. Gadkari has been emphasizing flex fuel for a long time. It is also often asking automakers to build flex fuel vehicles. Now the country’s largest car maker Maruti Suzuki has also clarified its opinion about flex fuel cars.
- Toyota has launched its flex fuel car in India as a pilot project
- Maruti Suzuki also made its opinion clear about flex fuel cars
- The company may start producing ethanol-powered engines by 2023
- If Maruti brings ethanol-powered cars in the market soon, people will get relief from expensive petrol soon
According to media reports, the company may now bring a car that runs on flex fuel. The company may start producing ethanol-powered engines by 2023. Once the engine is ready, Maruti Suzuki will start offering flex fuel engines in its cars and with it many Maruti cars will be able to run on 20 percent ethanol fuel.
The sooner Maruti Suzuki takes this decision, the sooner the new Maruti Suzuki car buyers will start reaping the benefits. One of the reasons is that only Maruti cars are sold in the country. In such a situation, if Maruti brings ethanol-powered cars in the market soon, people will get relief from expensive petrol soon.
Running a car on ethanol will be cheaper than petrol and CNG. That means people’s expenses will be almost halved. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari has also said about 2-3 times that if people are getting petrol at 120 rupees per litre, the cost of running a car with ethanol will almost halve to 60 rupees per litre. When cars start running on large amounts of ethanol, the benefits will also be seen in the environment and pollution. Because experts say that the pollution caused by ethanol vehicles will be greatly reduced.
