AI summary
Maruti Suzuki launched India's first flex-fuel car based on the Wagon R platform on June 4, 2026, ahead of World Environment Day. The car can run on any ethanol-petrol blend from E20 to E100 and is homologated for E85 under CMVR rules. The launch took place in the presence of ministers Nitin Gadkari and Hardeep Singh Puri. The company sees flex-fuel tech as a way to cut oil imports, lower emissions, and boost farmer income through ethanol demand.
Likely market impact
Positive for brand image and first-mover positioning in flex-fuel, though adoption depends on ethanol supply infrastructure.
