Maruti Suzuki India said on Friday, the World Environment Day, it is working on introducing cleaner fuel CNG variants of its existing models to expand its offering in the alternative fuel technology.
"Our initiatives for non-conventional clean fuel will take a step further in the coming times with factory fitted CNG options on several models," Maruti Suzuki India managing director and CEO Shinzo Nakanishi said.
He, however, did not disclose details about the models, which are likely to be introduced in CNG variants.
Nakanishi said the company's R&D units are currently working to upgrade MSI's car models to adopt the CNG version.
"In terms of future technology that is still to come to India, newly launched Maruti Suzuki models A-star and Ritz meet the End of Life norms that are yet to be adopted in India. Progressively, we will make all Maruti Suzuki models ELV compliant by 2010," Nakanishi said.
The company's Ritz, launched in May, was the first car in India to conform the Bharat Stage-IV emission norms.
