MARUTI SUZUKI PLANS TO LAUNCH THEIR FIRST ECO-FRIENDLY IN INDIA CAR BY 2010



Maruti Suzuki plans to introduce their new eco-friendly car to the Indian markets by 2010. The India's largeest automobile manufacturer also plans to renovate all its cars that are currently under production so that they become compatible with the environment norms put forward by the End - of - Life Vehicle (ELV) recycling norms by 2010.
In Shinzo Nakanishi's (CEO of Maruti Suzuki India Limited) words, "We stand a chance to have the eco-car in the Indian market." He added "It fits well into our product mix and we could utilise the Indo-Thai trade pact to bring in components at low taxes, thus making the car price-competitive for Indian customers."


The ELV directive in the European Union deals with the disposal of vehicles and their components. Four heavy metals whose use has been severely curtailed on all vehicles sold in the EU since July 1, 2003 have been sorted out. The metals are - lead, mercury, cadmium and hexavalent chromium. An amendment was done to the directive which stated that the maximum concentration values of 0.1 wt per cent for lead and mercury and 0.01 wt per cent for cadmium. This value was later incorporated and established for each homogeneous material in a vehicle. The norms would be applied to any on-road vehicle equipment capable of speeds greater than 25 kph.

However the ELV norms excluded off-road vehicles, railcars, mining and agricultural equipment and vintage cars. Besides, ELV focuses on producing, dismantling and recycling vehicles in a more eco-friendly manner thereby establishing clear quantified targets for reuse, recycling and recovery of vehicles and their components. What's more, the ELV pushes the manufacturers to build new vehicles with a view to their recyclability.
However, this new project from MSIL if completed successfully, will produce India's first complete eco-friendly car.
