Maruti Suzuki is all about going green in form of CNG and Smart Hybrid. Being the pioneer of this Green Revolution, Maruti Suzuki has made its entire range available as factory fitted S-CNG cars. We take a look at this incredible transformation
FUELED BY THE FUTURE

Maruti Suzuki, India’s largest car manufacturer has been reforming mobility by providing innovative technologies for over three decades. We are at a crucial juncture in this journey where the Indian Government is focusing on cleaner fuels and environment-friendly mobility solutions. CNG, being an eco-friendly fuel with higher fuel efficiency and lower running cost, is best placed in meeting both consumers’ interests as well as national priorities. The Government is committed towards increasing the CNG distribution infrastructure across the country. Hence the demand for CNG vehicles is seeing an upsurge. Maruti Suzuki then is best placed to leverage this opportunity. Maruti Suzuki India Ltd introduced factory-fitted CNG vehicles in 2010. Over the course of a decade, CNG cars from Maruti Suzuki have evolved to be S-CNG which offers performance, safety and savings while being eco-friendly. The S-CNG technology consists of interdependent engine control units and intelligent injection systems that seamlessly communicate with each other to provide an optimum air-fuel ratio during combustion, ensuring better performance and high fuel efficiency. It is offered in six models which include the new Alto, Celerio, WagonR, S-Presso, Ertiga, Eeco and the commercial range consisting of Tour H1 (Alto), Tour H2 (Celerio), Tour V (Eeco), Tour S (Dzire), Tour M (Ertiga) and also Super Carry.
