CAFE-III rules are too soft, say global agencies
Hindustan Times
|December 09, 2025
India's auto emissions roadmap is so conservative that it falls short of the industry's own targets for electric vehicle sales, two international agencies said.
The US-based International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) and the Geneva-based International Road Federation (IRF) have separately urged New Delhi to reconsider further concessions under India's upcoming Corporate Average Fuel-Efficiency (CAFE) norms.
This follows the industry's complaint that the draft normseven after a revision since their introduction in 2024-are too stringent and could threaten the sector's sustainability.
While industrywide CAFE-III compliance would raise the EV share in total car sales to 10-11%, the industry itself is targeting a significantly higher share, according to ICCT, an independent research organization advising environmental regulators on policy.
