The new BS6 emission norms will be implemented from the 1st of April 2020. All cars post this date will have to follow more stringent emission regulations. BS6-compliant engines will have to run on BS6 fuel, as new-generation engines running on low-quality fuel emit many toxic gases. Moreover, avoiding using BS4 fuel on BS6-compliant cars is best.

Here’s a list of some of India’s best BS6-compliant cars.

The auto industry is set to transition to the BS6 regime soon. This step is transitioning to owning cars that consume cleaner fuels and help reduce harmful pollutants emitted by vehicular exhausts. When buying a car, get car insurance to provide coverage against your car’s loss or damage. Some insurance companies provide facilities like car roadside assistance cover, which is quite beneficial. In case of insurance renewal, you can apply for a car insurance renewal online and continue to avail all the benefits of car insurance.
