Carmakers can claim a maximum of 9gm reduction in five years for small cars from when CAFE 3 will be enforced.
(HT)
Energy Efficiency (BEE), the two executives said.
Maruti Suzuki, which has the largest portfolio of small cars, is also unhappy, the executives suggested. The company had sought 20gm carbon emission relief, but the draft norms only proposed 3gm. This, the company remarked during industry discussions, offers only a “minuscule” advantage to small vehicles.
The BEE had released the initial draft for Cafe-3 in June 2024, and industry responded in December. The revised norms, which proposed relaxations to small cars, were released on 25 September. Industry is yet to respond.
"We have just received the proposal from BEE based on our submission given in December 2024. We are yet to deliberate and align on this internally," Siam president Shailesh Chandra said, while responding to a query at a press conference on Wednesday. "Till we don’t represent ourselves to the government, we don't want to talk about the subject."
