‘In the last few years, the company has worked systematically towards reducing vehicle emissions and achieved new benchmarks.

This has been possible through fuel-efficiency improvements, reduction of exhaust emissions and development of alternate-fuel products during this period. The company also claims that its engineers worked towards improving fuel efficiency and bringing down emissions per car in 2014″15.
