Government notifies new CAFE-3 norms for passenger vehicles

The Indian government has issued the third phase of Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE-3) standards, covering all new passenger cars produced domestically or brought in for sale. The Power Ministry said the regulations aim to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions, with compliance required from manufacturers starting a specific date. The standards supersede CAFE-2, demanding greater mileage and stricter testing.
