Will enter BS-VI era with only petrol vehicles; EVs, hybrids on anvil: Audi India

NEW DELHI : German luxury carmaker Audi will transition into the BS-VI emission norms with petrol vehicles and alternate fuel technologies, although it has ruled out exiting diesel engines totally, according to a top company official.

Audi India, which had recently launched its 8th generation A6 sedan with mild hybrid technology, is considering hybrids and plug-in hybrid vehicles to be brought to the country.

“BS-VI we will start with petrol only, across all models but diesel is not completely out of the picture,” Audi India Head Balbir Singh Dhillon told PTI.
